Stonewall Institute provides mental health counseling services for people who are struggling with depression, trauma, anxiety, and more severe mental health issues. In addition to the individual services we provide, we also offer group services like peer support.

Peer support occurs when people provide knowledge, experience, emotional, social or practical help to each other. It commonly refers to an initiative consisting of trained supporters, and can take a number of forms such as mentors, listening, or counseling. Peer support is also used to refer to initiatives where colleagues, members of self help organizations and others meet as equals to give each other support on a reciprocal basis. Peer in this case is taken to imply that each person has no more expertise as a supporter than the other and the relationship is one of equality.

A peer has “been there, done that” and can relate to others who are now in a similar situation. Most often, these professionals are required to obtain Continuing Education Units, like all other clinical staff.

Stonewall Institute provides mental health counseling services for people who are struggling with depression, trauma, anxiety, and more severe mental health issues. We also provide Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, to our clients as well.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a system of therapy originally developed to treat persons with borderline personality disorder (BPD) by Marsha M. Linehan, a psychology researcher at the University of Washington.  DBT combines standard cognitive-behavioral techniques for emotion regulation and reality-testing with concepts of distress tolerance, acceptance, and mindful awareness largely derived from Buddhist meditative practice. DBT is the first therapy that has been experimentally demonstrated to be effective for treating BPD. Research indicates that DBT is also effective in treating patients who present varied symptoms and behaviors associated with spectrum mood disorders, including self-injury.  Recent work suggests its effectiveness with sexual abuse survivors  and chemical dependency.
