I work with clients to help them live their valued life using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness skills. I specialize in working with Mood and Anxiety disorders, Trauma, PTSD, OCD, Insomnia and ADD/ADHD.
Life happens. Change is constant and is part of life. With changes, comes stress and anxiety. I focus on teaching my clients coping tools so they are able to respond in a way that is productive and in their control, rather than react, leading to a spiral of further stress and anxiety.
