1. We map out your current stressors, history, and goals

2. We identify the specific mental loops or behavioral patterns that are stalling your progress

3. You implement specific strategies between sessions to gather data on what works in your “real-world” environment

4. We refine the strategies based on results until you feel confident navigating your life independently.

Based on the principles of Modern Stoicism, CBT identifies “System Errors” (cognitive distortions) in your thinking.

We exam your automatic thoughts that influence your day-to-day life, weighing them against the facts of your reality. This allows us to refine your thinking to produce more helpful and effective outlooks.

Drawing on the mindfulness traditions of Applied Buddhism, ACT focuses on “Psychological Flexibility”.

We identify your core values, your internal guide, and learn to navigate difficult emotions without allowing them to hijack your decision-making process.

While CBT and ACT provide our primary structure, I utilize a variety of other evidence-based tools depending on the specific ‘bottlenecks’ we identify in your life. Whether we are drawing on DBT for real time stress regulation or Narrative and Existential frameworks to re-examine the overarching trajectory of your life, every tool is chosen for its logical utility and its ability to drive measurable progress toward you core objectives.
