About
I am a woman of color who is compassionate and non-judgmental of others.
I am Kaffie Wilcoxon, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 24 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. My passion for counseling grew from balancing my journey as a wife, mother, and grandmother while pursuing higher education and a full-time career. Over the years, I’ve worked with clients from all walks of life, providing support through transitions, hardships, and victories. My approach is rooted in compassion, respect, and collaboration, empowering each person to uncover their strengths and move toward their goals.
I hold a Master’s in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of South Florida. My approach combines evidence-based practices with personalized strategies that respect each client’s unique needs and experiences. I focus on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel supported and encouraged to pursue growth and healing.
I believe in helping clients achieve empowerment and self-satisfaction as they manage life’s demands. Whether addressing personal struggles, building healthier relationships, or overcoming obstacles, I am committed to guiding clients with care, encouragement, and the tools they need to thrive.

At Thriveworks, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) primarily concentrates on assisting individuals in emotion regulation, enhancing interpersonal relationships, and acquiring effective coping strategies for managing stress and emotional difficulties.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) targets your personal challenges. You may work with your DBT therapist to maintain diary cards to monitor progress, emphasizing validation and support in the therapeutic relationship. DBT follows a stage-based approach, prioritizing crisis reduction initially and life satisfaction.
DBT was initially developed to address the needs of individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, its versatile approach has enabled its application to a wide range of mental health conditions, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, and anger issues.
The 4 pillars of DBT are mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) have distinct purposes and aren’t inherently superior or inferior to one another. DBT is most effective for managing emotional regulation, personality disorders, and interpersonal challenges, while EMDR is specifically tailored for individuals with trauma-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with therapists at Thriveworks in Boynton Beach, FL is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of a standard DBT program is typically around 24 weeks, which is roughly six months. The actual number of sessions will vary depending on the issues you wish to address.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
