Sometimes life throws us a curveball. We find ourselves feeling disconnected from the people and things that are important to us. Its like we are unable to live fully. Sometimes our problems become the only thing that we can focus on, and the life we want to live seems a distant dream. What if there was a way to get unstuck from your problems and dark thoughts, and get back into your life? Whether it is addiction or mental health problems, whether it is trauma that just won't let go, these struggles do not have to become your story.

Many of the strategies I use are based in
Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy.
Struggling with sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, erection, ejaculation or overall confidence and comfort with sex is common. You are not alone, and overcoming these issues is possible. These struggles can be related to anxiety, discomfort with our bodies or pleasure, or previous negative sexual experiences. We often feel shame or embarrassment when talking about sex, even with our romantic and sexual partners. I offer an authentic, accepting and collaborative space for individuals who are seeking therapy to work through some of these issues.

I have training in CBT, DBT,
ACT
, and the Gottman Method of couples therapy, and I use them to validate your experience and empower you to cope with what's bothering you.
I work best with clients who are looking for an informal, supportive setting where they can learn skills that help them manage their lives more effectively, whether the problem is big feelings, a disconnect in relationships with those close to you, ADHD symptoms, trouble with boundaries and assertiveness, or anger and controlling behavior--anything that makes you feel like you've somehow gotten away from the person you'd like to be.

I hold a safe and non-judgemental space for my clients and practice from a place of compassion and
acceptance

Multiple treatment modalities inform my practice, including

Noëlle Fellman
Psychologist, PsyD

My work also includes mindfulness,
acceptance
and commitment therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist and have been practicing for over 20 years. In my experience, those seeking therapy are looking for answers for how better to navigate their lives to ease emotional pain and find fulfillment within their lives. I believe that life's hurts primarily occur in relation to others and that healing often comes through relationship as well, sometimes by seeking a professional's guidance. You may discover that having someone walk alongside you in your journey for a time, acting as a witness to your stories, is an invaluable gift.

Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy framework, but pull from several different approaches to meet my clients where they are and support them in the ways they deem important. It is not my place to tell you what you need -- I believe you already know and I am simply a guide along your journey.

Traveling through your journey in life is a powerful experience with unexpected bumps in the road, often creating feelings of uncertainty and self-doubt. When we experience thoughts and feelings that are uncomfortable such as depression, anxiety, stress, and changes in mood, we tend to also feel it physically in our bodies through lethargy, pain, and changes in sleep and weight. Inversely, what we put in our bodies often times impacts how we feel emotionally, without often times even knowing it. Using a mind-body therapeutic approach allows you to identify skills for a means of transformation in your emotional and physical life.

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.
