I don't rush to diagnose and offer cookie-cutter one-size-fits-all solutions, but treat each client with unconditional acceptance, empathy, and respect.
My ideal clients are adults who appear high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected inside. They may be professionals, business owners, older adults, people in recovery, musicians, or creatives. Many come to therapy for anxiety, burnout, trauma, grief, chronic stress, performance pressure, relationship patterns, life transitions, addiction-related struggles, or loss of meaning. They want more than symptom relief—they want real change, clarity, and a more grounded way of living.

I draw from psychodynamic therapy, CBT, ACT, mindfulness-based strategies, and person-centered therapy to build insight and encourage change.
Many people who reach out for therapy are used to handling things on their own or keeping everything bottled up. From the outside, life may look stable, but internally it can feel exhausting. You might feel weighed down by anxiety, periods of depression, questions about identity, or experiences from the past that continue to shape how you see yourself and the world around you.
Therapy can be a space to slow down, gain insight into these patterns, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and intention. You don't have to keep carrying it all on your own.

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.
