My ideal clients are adults and teens who possess one or more of these personality traits: high sensitivity, emotional intensity, or giftedness (above-average intensity, drive, complexity, and empathy). If this sounds like you, you may feel like you don't fit in or belong in the world and wonder about life's meaning and purpose. You experience many deep emotions throughout the day that no one else seems to understand, leaving you feeling lonely, guilty, ashamed, or depressed about your thoughts, behaviors, or coping methods. You may be asking yourself, "What's wrong with me?"

If you ever go home feeling like you just can’t shake what you saw on a call, at work, throughout a career, or in life, I can help. You want to find a sense of peace. To feel whole again. Maybe you feel a bit lost and unrecognizable to yourself. You want to feel understood. You want to feel like you matter. You tell yourself “no one else could possibly get it.” If you find yourself more irritable and angrier with the people you love and care about, I can help. If you ever feel like there are pieces of yourself you’ve lost, I want to partner with you to find them.

We’ll integrate science-based treatments like Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with embodied healing tools like meditation and yoga.
Are your own high standards wearing you down? Tired of constantly striving, but unable to relax? Too much self-control, or overcontrol, makes it hard to enjoy life and connect meaningfully with others. It’s exhausting to feel like you’re always ‘on’, performing, or wearing a mask. Overcontrol can lead to problems like anxiety, depression, disordered eating, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, and intimacy avoidance. You don’t have to struggle alone–I’ve been a therapist working with LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and other overcontrolled folks for over 10 years. Together, we can help you become more flexible, spontaneous, and authentic.

I care deeply for the work and the people I have the privilege to connect with and care for. I especially enjoy working with younger folks and couples. Young people today are surrounded by a lot of complex and unique generational issues including rapid technological development, attentional drains, social isolation, reduced financial opportunities, and political uncertainty. Truly this is a difficult time to be a young person. This is also a difficult time to forge meaningful connections with others. But difficult does not mean impossible.

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.
