acceptance and commitment therapy to
move through indecision
out of self-doubt
into a life of deeper meaning
Welcome, fellow human!
I offer therapy to people who are experiencing indecision, self-doubt, and a longing for more depth, meaning or connection in their life. As an ACT therapist, I am equipped to help you foster real, lasting (evidence-based) growth in how you live. We can work together to create a life that embraces freedom and reflects who you truly are and what you care about most.
What if you could freely be the real you?
Can you imagine showing up to your relationships with presence and confidence?
Can you imagine feeling clear about who you are, what you stand for, and how to tangibly be yourself in your choices?
Imagine you didn't have to monitor yourself, argue with yourself, doubt yourself, worry about yourself, question yourself or hide yourself.
Would you have more time to focus on your what you care about?
Would you have more energy to share with others?
Would you have more space to cultivate peace and meaning in your life?
What if you don't have to stay stuck anymore in patterns that don't serve you?
What if there's another way to "be" that is more present, deep, real and attuned to what matters most?
This shift—from not being the real you to showing up in life with clarity and confidence—is the focus of the therapy I do.
“I’ve always felt I had to do things because they were expected of me, or more important, to make people like me. The hell with it! I think from now on I’m going to just be me."
~ Carl Rogers
I work with humans experiencing:
01 Indecision
You don't feel clear about either a specific decision or how to make authentic decisions in general
You "think to death" about decisions but have trouble knowing when it's time to move forward or risk a change
You have a particular obstacle (psychological or external) that makes it feel difficult/impossible to move forward, but you are unsatisfied with where you are
Or, over-decisive/controlled--your efforts to assert control are creating unsustainable costs, such as stress for yourself, strain on your relationships, or priorities being neglected
02 Self-doubt
You feel like there's a relentless questionmark over your whole self--"am I okay/acceptable?"
You waver between artificial enthusiasm and disappearing into the shadows
You feel like you're wearing a mask you don't know how to take off or are afraid to take off
You apologize for taking up space
03 Longing for deeper meaning + connection
You feel a level of emptiness, like there's a depth to living you're missing
You feel lonely even when you're not alone. Like you can't quite fully connect with people
With family members or certain friends you slide into old patterns that don't reflect your recent growth
You spend time avoiding your pain or distracted from the present moment
04 All of the related struggles
Any of these or others:
You get caught in "hamster wheels" of thinking that you don't know how to break free from
A lot of your time, energy and attention is focused on monitoring yourself, your actions, or how you're perceived
You aren't sure if you're a good or worthy person
You can find freedom to:
01 Indecisive
Make wholehearted decisions
Clarify what matters to you most and how that connects to your indecision
Connect experientially with alternative, embodied ways of approaching decisions
Start making choices, big and small, that reflect what matters to you
(reach out for more on "over-decisive")
03 Longing for deeper meaning + connection
Risk being the real you in relationships
02 Self-doubt
Trust yourself
Better understand the true nature of your doubt and insecurities. Know and name what you fear.
Learn how to welcome difficult feelings for the sake of what you care about
Build flexible, constructive ways of relating to self-doubt and insecurity that undermine their role in your life
Learn to coexist with all your feelings while you boldly and freely live out your values
Clarify what you are truly longing for, deep down
Learn how to show up as yourself, not wearing a mask, in your relationships
Slow down and become genuinely present to yourself, other humans, the earth, and your faith (if religious/spiritual)
Take tangible steps to build connection and meaning in ways that reflect all that you are
04 All the related struggles
Build flexibility to handle challenges well
Really face and get to know who you are and how you honestly feel about yourself, your life, your relationships
Learn healthier ways to handle when your thoughts or feelings get out of control
Become more aware of your auto-pilot reactions and how to interrupt them
Notice parts of yourself that are hidden in plain sight and impacting how you feel and the choices you make

you won't end up in therapy by accident!
