Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Pewaukee, WI

So many of us feel like we are stuck in certain ways- whether it be stuck in our patterns of behaviors, our overwhelming emotions, our reactions, our relationships, or any other way we may be feeling stuck. I want to work with people who feel like they are stuck and aren’t sure where to go next. I intend to help people feel empowered and free. I am an integrative, individualist therapist who chooses to see therapy as a process of connecting and moving towards living a more authentic life. The population I work especially well with is women trying to come into their own identity and sense of self.

As a therapist I am committed to providing a safe, nonjudgmental, compassion space for you to embrace vulnerability and start your journey of personal growth and healing.

You are busy, hardworking, and known to be capable. On the outside, you’ve got it together but on the inside you’re wondering how to keep your head above water. Stress, anxiety, or distress from obsessive-compulsive (OCD) disorder is too much to take on alone. You're saying "yes" more than you should and losing track of who you are while you succeed in making things ok for everyone else. You have a mind that you can’t turn off and you could really use a moment of peace. Emotions are coming up and out at times you didn't plan. It's hard to be joyful because you wonder, "when is the other shoe going to drop?" Something’s got to give.

I believe as people we have a desire to be seen for who we are without judgment. I am passionate about creating a space that celebrates clients for who they are. I believe this lays the foundation for a deep, meaningful therapeutic relationship which leads to change and healing of the mind, body, and soul. I value collaborating together to meet your needs. I will work with you to identify your goals, meet you where you are, and to walk alongside you on your journey. My passion is supporting those who are fighting an eating disorder, navigating identity exploration and life transitions, body image concerns, anxiety, and depression.

I support adults, 25 and older, to attain post traumatic growth, relief from overwhelming emotions, and create affirming meanings about their life experiences. My clients explore long held patterns, build safety within strong emotion, and expand their tolerance for distress.

Clients from marginalized communities and identities will find a safe and inviting space with me. I am passionate about social justice, and operate from an anti-oppressive framework.
