Some of the treatment modalities I utilize include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
Do you fee like you just can't cope with the things that are happening in your life right now? Is uncertainty preventing you from believing in yourself? Do you feel like you don't have a space where you fit in? Do you constantly compare yourself to others? Do you only see what's "wrong" with you? Do you live your life trying to please others? Are you constantly striving for perfection? Do you act out of emotion and regret it later? Do you find it hard to speak up for yourself? Have you lost interest in things that once brought you joy? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then please give me a call.

Silence can hurt. Yes, the roles of being a mom, wife, friend, and child are GREAT but they can also be draining. Maybe you know your relationships are unfulfilling or your work life has been stressful for quite some time. You may be thinking how you got here. You may be wondering if you are the problem. Your doubts and anxieties about the world around you may be stemming from societal pressure, cultural influence, or past experiences- which we know is unfair to compare our situation to past events.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists

How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.

What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?

The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.

Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?

Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.

How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?

A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
