Pamela Goffman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, TEP
Psychotherapy opens our perceptions to the meanings behind our beliefs and patterns of behavior, that in turn comprise the roles we take in our lives. My job is to help you integrate these perceptions and access these meanings, so you can expand your life by creating new roles.

Cassandre Charnel
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Hearing you have a diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder can be confusing and frightening to say the least. Often people who have received this diagnosis experienced a great deal of neglect and trauma during their childhood. In order to survive, patterns and thoughts and behavior developed and were very likely necessary as your survival into adulthood. However, these same skills have left you feeling isolated, alone and alienated. The fact that you are here, suggest you have all the tools needed to start the process of recovery. I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy: DBT is one of the researched evidence based practices in treating borderline personality disorder (BPD.) Developing a therapeutic relationship first and foremost in a safe, compassionate, honest and affirming space will assist in understanding, managing, and addressing BPD at it's core.

Utah Center for Evidence Based Treatment
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is one of the most effective treatments for emotion regulation difficulties. Our goal is to help our clients find a life worth living.
It has been used with both adolescents and adults for the treatment of self-injury, suicidality, personality disorders, substance use, eating disorders, and several other psychological problems.
Our DBT team has completed the Behavioral Tech Official DBT Intensive Training. Further, DBT therapists make a commitment to ongoing education in DBT, other evidence-based treatments, suicide prevention, integrating trauma-based approaches with DBT, and ethics.
We are one of the few local sites that offers the full DBT program, which includes individual therapy (once per week), skills group training (once per week), telephone coaching (as needed), and therapist collaborative consultation.
DBT is ideal for clients with one or more of these emotional experiences:
• Painful emotions from which a person feels there is no escape
• A chronic sense of "feeling nothing"
• Quickly shifting from one emotion to another
• Feeling like emotions are overwhelming, confusing, or controlling your life
• Having problems with anger, anxiety, and depression
In addition, DBT addresses the following difficulties:
• Difficulties in interpersonal relationships
• Living with a sense of emptiness or feeling like you are confused about who you are
• Impulsive behavior, suicide attempts, or self-injury
• Confused or fearful thinking
• Coping with distress through self-harm, eating, substance use, risky sexual behaviors, or avoiding everything
