You're experiencing a significant life transition. Maybe you're navigating coming out as LGBTQ, supporting a loved one in their LGBTQ identity while managing your own emotions, or feeling overwhelmed as you enter into parenthood. Maybe you are experiencing depression and/or anxiety and are wanting a space where you know your sexual orientation and gender identity will be affirmed for you to feel safe. You need someone who truly gets what you are going through, not just someone who's read about it in textbooks.

I believe wholeheartedly in the resilience of my clients, and that means I know that you are the expert in your own life. My role as a therapist is simply to help restore your confidence in yourself through a lens of compassion, creativity, humor (at times), and non-judgement. You already have all that you need - I'm just here to help you access it! And because sometimes talking just doesn't cut it, I love using art, writing, and other creative mediums to help de-mystify the therapy space and help clients express themselves a little easier. Therapy should work for YOU, not the other way around.

I primarily use EMDR and ACT ( Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and I also offer intensive EMDR sessions for those looking to make faster progress in a more concentrated time frame.
I experience the work of therapy as a beautiful intersection of art, science, and spirituality. There’s an art to building a therapeutic relationship, connecting with others on a deeply human level and moving forward creatively even when the path isn’t clear. The science comes in through the evidence-based approaches and treatments I use, providing both a roadmap and a lens through which we can understand ourselves and foster growth. The spiritual aspect, for me, is in the sacred, intangible moments when someone opens up with bravery and vulnerability, moving toward healing not just in their mind, but in their heart and soul.

Using DBT or ACT approaches, I equip preteens through adults with the skills to lower the intensity of their emotions and then show curiosity and compassion.
Do you often find yourself reacting strongly to situations, only to later wonder why you got so upset? Do your emotions seem to escalate quickly from 0 to 10 without a clear reason? When you experience uncomfortable emotions, do you tend to distract yourself or shut down? Do you struggle with creating a support network or having boundaries with others? Are there unresolved trauma issues that you may not be acknowledging? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are one step closer because the first step toward change is awareness. Embracing this awareness can lead to positive transformations and a deeper understanding.

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.
