Do you ever feel like a contradiction? One day you're committed- the next you just can't even go there? Ever doubted WHO you really are? My most successful clients have already experienced typical counseling and talk therapy and want to go deeper. They've tried all the positive thinking, grounding, and thought interruption techniques and, quite frankly, want to find peace, calm, and happiness without working so hard to moderate their every move. I will guide you through a meditation-like session where you will deeply befriend the various parts of who you are currently pulling you in different directions. Lasting change w/ Self Trust

Welcome! As a counseling and positive psychologist, I offer both standard psychotherapy and 15-session Positive Psychotherapy (PPT). Many clients struggle to understand and manage their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; develop connections with others; handle change; and live their best lives. However, clients are also competent people who are actively able to make meaningful personal changes. I focus on collaborating with clients to develop and use their strengths, values, and skills to both cope with problems and live a more fulfilled life. This approach reduces symptoms and allows clients to live in a healthy, balanced way.

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.
