You might be longing for a safe place to talk about what matters most to you —your feelings, your relationships, or how to live more authentically. Many of the people I see have had recent feelings of anxiety, reactivity, or disconnection, some carrying painful memories from their past. Others who see me are looking to build closer emotional connections, express themselves more freely, or explore their identity and creativity. Some are in non-traditional relationships and value a therapist who can meet them with openness and respect. My clients often share a hope of feeling more connected, grounded, and true to themselves.

My ideal client seeks transformation beyond conventional therapy. They often face trauma, anxiety, depression, or transitions, and may feel disconnected from their body. I enjoy working in-depth with people to work towards addressing the root cause of where they are stuck. This may involve psychedelic integration work, somatic work, parts work - or simply be a process of ongoing and earnest reflection. My approach is about supporting people to deepen their own self-understanding - whether as a seeker looking for spiritual connection, or to address their mental health - our work together is about deep introspection.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Counsellors

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.
