You have tried so many things to feel better about yourself but nothing is working long term. You feel frustrated, confused, and even overwhelmed. Your friends and family give you advice that doesn’t help and you’re left feeling like no one gets it. Life may even feel hopeless. You begin to ask yourself if something is fundamentally wrong with you. I get it. I’ve been there and so have many of my clients. As a therapist, I want to help you create a life where your friends and family are asking, “Wow, what are you doing differently? You seem so alive and engaged in life.”

Do you want more out of life but something is holding you back? The connection may be subtle, but the things that happened to you a long time ago may continue to effect you today. Have you lost your passion? Are you tense all the time, always on edge, maybe you struggle to get through the day because your anxiety is so bad. Replaying the same painful moments over and over again; it is interfering with your day to day life; it’s exhausting. Your friends and family may not understand what you are going through but I do. Maybe you know the direction you need to go but don’t know how to remove the hidden barriers. I can teach you how.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a type of psychotherapy that helps you accept the difficulties that come with life. ACT is a form of mindfulness based therapy, theorizing that greater well-being can be attained by overcoming negative thoughts and feelings. Essentially, ACT looks at your character traits and behaviors to assist you in reducing avoidant coping styles. ACT also addresses your commitment to making changes, and what to do about it when you can't stick to your goals.

If you're looking for ACT therapy in Salt Lake City or for a Salt Lake City ACT therapist these professionals provide acceptance and commitment therapy, ACT group therapy, ACT therapy, and acceptance commitment therapy. They include ACT therapists, ACT psychologists, ACT psychotherapists and ACT counselors.
