Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Red Wing, MN
Women who work with me will experience services that blend acceptance, self-discovery, collaborative problem-solving, and accountability using compassion, humor and authenticity.
No one seems to understand you. Your irritability has reached a zenith, sure, but you are peri/menopausal and your tolerance for bullshit has been depleting just as fast as your estrogen, causing you to want to escape. What looks to others like running away, could be for you an internal reckoning. A re-prioritization, with yourself as the focal point, after a lifetime of focusing on others.

Currently Accepting New Clients. Hi there! I'm Allison, currently practicing therapy virtually from Southeast MN. I specialize in treating persistent mental health conditions like co-occurring mental health and addictive disorders, borderline personality disorder, and complex trauma.
Many of my clients struggle with codependent relationship patterns. They learned these survival strategies early in life, but now, it feels impossible to imagine a different way. Reflecting on this leads to feelings of guilt, anxiety, and never being “good enough.”

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.
