- ACT Background and Training
I became interested in ACT in the mid-90's under the tutlege of Joseph Scardapane, Ph.D. at Hofstra University. Since that time, I have used several contextually-based therapies in my practice including ACT, DBT and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. I am an active ACT and RFT-related consumer. My understanding of ACT has deepened considerably since working closely with D.J. Moran since 2006.
- ACT Experience
- I have been a consumer of ACT and RFT since 2000.
- Types of Clients
- Although most of my experience has been with college-aged students with intense emotional suffering, I now work at a community-based outpatient clinic with more diversity
- Specialties
- Borderline Personality Disorder, Survivors of Sexual Abuse and LGBT Clients
- Additional Information
I am the Executive Director of the Psychological Solutions Institute in Lisle, Illinois. This is a clinical training site where ACT, FAP, DBT and MBCT is taught to clinical practicum students.
