If you find yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, irritability or loneliness, you are clearly not alone, given how many therapists there are here! As a psychotherapist with 30 years of experience, I practice a powerful mindfulness-based intervention called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Often psychological pain has more to do with how we fight and judge our thoughts and feelings, and we end up in an exhausting internal struggle that we cannot win. We will work together to explore this struggle, gain distance from it, and learn skills and strategies to reduce impact and influence on your life.
I have an active, warm and non-judgmental style. My work integrates cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic therapies, with mindfulness directly at the center. Mindfulness-based psychotherapy involves increasing a compassionate awareness of our thoughts and feelings. We can learn to step back from these painful experiences and be more engaged with life.
This approach offers a unique way of working with depression, anxiety and other challenges to living a fuller life. If I am unable to work with you, another therapist who works at my practice will be able to work with you.
