Some days you may not want to feel so weighted; your head to not race; your intimate partner to not be that passing ship; or so moved by compulsion. You may just need some safe space to figure it all out. This can be your sorting place. My goal is to help you better identify and understand your symptoms and improve overall coping. You are an individual, not a cookie cutter, so your treatment approach will be unique to your needs, and each person's journey is individual. Through goal setting, we can help you to develop decisions congruent with the life you want. I use CBT, ACT, mindfulness, & Gottman Method (completed Level 1 & 2).

I believe everyone has the ability to make positive change, and I utilize empathy, reflection, and the use of DBT/ACT skills to help clients grow.
I work with individuals and couples who are seeking out therapy to work on finding relief from the symptoms they're experiencing related to relationship stress, depression, anxiety, and/or trauma, whether it's linked to past experiences or because of current stressors in their lives. My ideal client is interested in exploring their emotions, their lived experiences, and finding meaning in their life. I work with clients who may be struggling with low self-esteem, hopelessness, self-harm, high levels of anxiety, and relationship conflict. I appreciate working with LGBTQIA+, monogamous and ethical non-monogamous clients.

I believe in incorporating a positive psychological and holistic approach to the individuals I serve. By incorporating an overall wellness and "whole mind/body" approach with individuals, I believe each person can get the best out of themselves through mental health therapy. I utilize evidenced based clinical counseling techniques such as ACT, Mindfulness, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and a variety of sport counseling/psychology modalities into practice. Lastly, I take an individual approach to every person I treat, knowing that every person is different and deserves authentic, genuine, and exceptional mental health care.

I have been trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, a contemporary model rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, that's focus is less on removing negative or unhelpful thoughts and more-so on increasing psychological flexibility so we can accept our thoughts and commit to action that aligns with our values.
As some people like to say: when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! However, in those moments of hardship or change, hurt or grief, this isn't always the easiest task. That is where I come in! I have a strange belief that, as therapists, when we are kind, supportive and real, and we seem like real human beings ourselves, therapy can be a lot more successful. A strong, trusting bond within the therapeutic relationship is essential for progress, and I hope that by being real myself, I can invite you to be your authentic, vulnerable self in a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space with me.

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.
