No matter what path we take in life, we will be met with suffering and hardship along the way. This is a natural aspect of the human condition. My goal as a Therapist is to assist you with identifying how your suffering manifests (whether it be due to depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, life change etc.) and the variety of ways in which you can cope with the distressing situations in your life. In my practice, I work to cultivate a warm, non-judgmental space that welcomes you to safely explore the issues you are facing. I specialize in working with clients working through anxiety, OCD, life changes and chronic health struggles.
I work out of an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) framework and am a proponent of meeting one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors with curiosity and open-mindedness. I can help you develop insight into maladaptive thinking patterns and provide you with strategies for becoming grounded in the present moment while pursuing what is most important to you.
It can be hard to make the decision to start therapy and we oftentimes wait until we "really need it". However, it's a gesture of self-love & respect to allow yourself permission to get your needs (big or small) met. Everyone deserves a space to be heard and work through their thoughts/experiences. I would be honored and privileged to provide that space.

I primarily utilize ACT in my practice and integrate other behavioral modalities (CBT/DBT) as needed. These modalities help us to learn strategies for living in the present moment, gain insight into patterns of thought and behavior, and progressively work toward goals while maintaining integrity and compassion for the self.

Finding Wellness Within Illness

Hosted by
Brittany Murga

Starting SEPT 5! Through this virtual group, you will get a foundational understanding of one modality that can be particularly helpful for ongoing health issues: Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (pronounced “ACT”). Many modalities seek symptom reduction as an outcome of treatment, however with ongoing health issues, symptom reduction may not be a realistic end goal. As such, the ACT approach of pursuing what is important in the presence of symptoms emerges as a more realistic endeavor. Join this 8-week ACT workshop to learn strategies for managing difficult thoughts, feelings & emotions and find ways of committing to you values-based living.
