Mikaela Javinger - CBT therapist and social pedagogue with DBT expertise
With me, you will find a place where you can pause, explore, and find ways forward. I offer CBT treatment and also work with tools from dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). I tailor each therapy individually to your unique circumstances.
Perhaps you feel that your life has stalled, that you have reached a dead end, or that strategies that used to work are no longer effective? I work with people who want help dealing with anxiety, stress, worry, depression, exhaustion, phobias, shame, low self-esteem, or life crises. Perhaps you have been diagnosed by healthcare professionals and are wondering: what now, how do I move forward? Together, we will find the tools to achieve what is important to you in your recovery.
My background includes social pedagogy, peer support, and family therapy. I have worked for many years in social work and psychiatry and have met people in various vulnerable situations relating to mental illness, addiction, and homelessness. I have basic psychotherapy training (CBT Level 1) and DBT Intensive, as well as a university degree in social work, and receive ongoing supervision from a licensed psychologist/psychotherapist.
