Michael Keaveny

My approach to therapy: I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which is a model that helps people become more aware of their thoughts and emotions and to learn how to manage them in a way that creates a sense of peace and freedom. I try to balance insight development and teaching practical tools for managing distress.

How Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Works in Highwood, IL

Learn about therapy, what to expect, and how to find the right therapist for your needs.

What is DBT?

DBT typically includes both individual therapy and skills groups. You'll learn skills in four areas: mindfulness (staying present), distress tolerance (surviving crises without making things worse), emotion regulation (managing intense feelings), and interpersonal effectiveness (navigating relationships).

What Does DBT Help With?

DBT is highly effective for borderline personality disorder, self-harm, suicidal thinking, eating disorders, PTSD, and substance abuse. It helps anyone who struggles with intense emotions, impulsivity, unstable relationships, or chronic feelings of emptiness.

What to Expect in DBT

DBT is typically structured, skills-based, and focused on helping you manage intense emotions, improve relationships, tolerate distress, and respond more effectively in difficult moments. Depending on the format, DBT may include individual therapy, skills training, homework or practice between sessions, and support applying skills in real-life situations.
