Larry Hymes, LMFT

As a therapist, my process is always to ask you, the client, what it is you want in regard to your emotional wellness, what that would look like, and what is in your way of getting it. We then collaborate to get you there! This can include a variety of therapy modalities, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Prolonged Exposure, Motivational Interviewing, and Substance Abuse Recovery.

I am “Intensely DBT Trained” from The Linehan Institute. DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) began as the premiere treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder and then grew to be successfully used for a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, impulsivity, trauma, mood swings, couples counseling and substance addiction. I also use a variety of other practices and therapies, including CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma Informed Therapy. 

I have 10 years’ experience working in the field of addiction recovery.  I am well acquainted with the 12 Step Fellowships and Harm Reduction.  I also have 10 years’ experience working in the LGBTQ+ and Homeless communities.
