ACT/CBS Background and Training: I was initially introduced to ACT as a graduate student (in 2008) when I attended a 2-day workshop facilitated by Kelley Wilson in Eugene, Oregon. Subsequently, I began incorporating ACT into my clinical practicum experiences and was supervised by a licensed practicing ACT therapist. I continued to incorporate ACT principles into my work as a therapist during internship and as a postdoctoral fellow at the VA hospital in Providence, RI. Most recently, I ran ACT groups within the Military Sexual Trauma Clinic at the San Diego VA. Additionally, I have utilized Acceptance and Commitment Therapy interventions in the treatment of Problematic Pornography viewing. In additional to my clinical activities, I conduct research on the efficacy of ACT for addressing distress in Veteran populations.
ACT/CBS Experience: 10+ years
