About

Do you often feel like you’re not enough—or as though you’re perpetually falling short? Does each day feel harder to get through than it should? If so, you are not alone. I am the author of Reclaim Your Life and specialize in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based approach that helps people develop skills such as mindfulness, self-compassion, and values-based action. Rather than trying to eliminate difficult thoughts or emotions, ACT supports you in changing your relationship to them—so you can reduce suffering and build a life that feels meaningful and aligned.
