Welcome to The Current's monthly newsletter featuring
our latest blogs, services, and helpful content about
eating disorders and related issues.

ON THE BLOG:
What is Overcontrol?

In a world that values discipline and high achievement, having strong self-control might seem like an asset. But when taken to the extreme, overcontrol can lead to emotional suppression, perfectionism, and difficulty forming close relationships. In our latest blog, we explore the traits of overcontrolled personalities, how they develop, and ways to find balance.

If you often feel emotionally distant, overly rigid, or struggle to relax, this could be an important read.

Meet Kelsey Crandall, a therapist who supports teens and adults with issue related to anxiety, depression, eating disorders, maternal mental health, and relationship issues. She’s found that sometimes along the way, we encounter moments when our usual ways of coping no longer serve us- how we’ve “always done things” simply… isn’t working anymore. This can leave us feeling stuck, alone, and hopeless. The good news is that therapy can help, and Kelsey is privileged to join her clients on their path toward change.

Kelsey offers a compassionate, person-centered approach, emphasizing human connection and creativity in sessions. She also provides
faith-based counseling for those interested in incorporating their Christian faith.

Coming soon:
Virtual RO-DBT Classes starting March 18th

Do you have a client who would benefit from Radically Open DBT but their schedule hasn’t allowed for in-person sessions? Starting March 18th, The Current will offer a virtual RO-DBT skills class on Tuesdays from 9-10:30 AM, making this transformative program more accessible.

RO-DBT is designed for individuals with an overcontrolled style of coping (or excessive self control) resulting in inhibited emotional expression, rigid thinking and behavior, hypervigilance, and an aloof style of relating resulting in disconnection and loneliness. This coping style often results in anorexia nervosa, treatment resistant depression or anxiety, persistent trauma symptoms, and obsessive compulsive personality disorder.

This 30-week program fosters emotional expression, flexibility, and deeper social connections.

In-network with UHC | Private pay: $150/week
(includes therapy, skills class & coaching).
