For kids and teens, we utilize CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy), and play therapy techniques to connect their thoughts to their behaviors and consequences. We love to use creative and fun techniques to teach lifelong skills.
For adults, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), and DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) techniques are also effective, so you learn what works to help you better manage your stress, emotions, and actions to get the results you want.We believe that all the work we do, whether it is working with your children and teens or with the parents or young adult, inevitably helps families.

Report
This was one of Dori's theme in this short interview with David Telisman from DT Communications. Dori Mages is a clinical therapist, and owner of North Shore Family Services, which provides counseling services for parents, teens, kids, couples, and adults. What drew you to counseling/social work? As I went through my own therapy, I was inspired to support others through difficult times and to construct meaningful lives.
