Did you know Dialectical Behavior Therapy was originally developed by psychologist Marsha M. Linehan to help individuals experiencing chronic suicidal ideation and borderline personality disorder? Today, DBT is widely recognized as one of the most effective treatments for emotional dysregulation and related challenges. At THIRA Health, we provide full-fidelity DBT, meaning our programs follow the comprehensive model rather than merely integrating individual skills or concepts.

THIRA Health is excited to announce the launch of our Virtual Adult Evening IOP for All Genders beginning April 20. This 12-week program meets Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 4:00 to 7:00 PM PST and is designed for clients navigating mood disorders like anxiety and depression who need structured support without the intensity of a Partial Hospitalization level of care. IOP can also serve as a meaningful next step for those transitioning from a higher level of treatment as they continue building skills and stability. Our full fidelity DBT approach provides practical tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and long-term recovery.

Choosing between in-person and online therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you are new to therapy or looking for a better experience than you have had in the past. Both formats offer meaningful benefits, from the connection of face-to-face care to the flexibility and accessibility of telehealth. At THIRA Health, we offer both options so clients can receive the support that works best for their lives and needs.

The Story of THIRA

In 1991, Dr. Moore founded The Moore Center (now Eating Recovery Center of Washington), the longest-established treatment center specializing in eating disorder treatment in the Pacific Northwest. In her many years of clinical experience she has worked with patients dealing with a wide variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, and substance abuse, among others. These accomplishments are what has lead her to open THIRA Health. THIRA Health’s mission is to help adolescents and women work through traumatic life experiences and learn new coping skills. Soon after opening our doors Dr. Moore brought on Dr. Kathryn Korslund, as our Clinical Director. Having worked under Dr. Marsha Linehan during the development of DBT, Dr. Korslund has brought that expertise to THIRA, and has been a vital force in tailoring THIRA’s IOP and PHP programs following Dr. Linehan’s DBT guidelines. DBT has been proven to be an effective treatment for a wide variety of mental illnesses including but not limited to borderline personality disorder, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders.
