ACT/CBS Background and Training: I have been using mindfulness based interventions in my practice for years and began using the ACT model and interventions in 2005. I attend the ACT World Conferences annually, including the S. Hayes 2-day intensive training on ACT/RFT. I have consumed numerous ACT books, DVD's, and workbooks. I provide ACT based trainings to social workers, psychologists and physicians in Michigan.
ACT/CBS Experience: I have been practicing both ACT and MAC models of treatment since 2005.
Additional Information: I have been practicing in mental health and substance abuse fields since 1989. Previously, I used traditional Solution Focused/CBT/DBT approaches, combined with mindfulness interventions, but I have shifted to primarily using the ACT model. My clients are their own best experts. We work together as a team, overcoming barriers, and accomplishing their goals, including full engagement in life.
