Do you feel like your world has been turned upside down? The person you trusted most has betrayed that trust, and you're left feeling shattered, angry, and completely lost. The sleepless nights, the panic that gets carried away in a tornado, the constant replaying of events—it can feel impossible to escape. You may be asking, "How can I ever trust again?" or even "How can I save my relationship?" The future you thought you had is gone, and you don't know what to do next.

Therapy is a meaningful act of self-love, and the right fit matters.
Many of my clients are used to holding it all together while feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected beneath the surface. They come navigating trauma, identity, life transitions, or relationship strain. I deeply believe everyone deserves a space to heal, experience peace, and feel more settled within their nervous system. Together, we create space to slow down, process what’s been weighing on you, and build the awareness and skills needed to feel more grounded, clear, and connected.

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.
