Acceptance and Commitment Therapy therapists in Newton, North Carolina NC
Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
I specialize in helping high-achievers, perfectionists, and people-pleasers who are feeling stuck in life by guiding them to discover what's not working and how to find more fulfillment in life, work, and relationships. I find fulfillment in supporting high-achieving professional women and parents who grapple with overwhelm, exhaustion, and burnout in daily life become unstuck. In therapy sessions, I integrate a blend of techniques rooted in Coherence Therapy, which includes parts work and 'bottom-up' therapy, alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). This dual approach enables me to explore with my clients both deep-seated issues that may have developed in childhood and are still at play in ways they may not realize as well as current unmet core needs. By employing these methods, we can access a range of strategies tailored to assist each client in overcoming the challenges brought to each session.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Just being a human is challenging. A therapeutic relationship is one that creates a safe space to reflect on who you are and what you experience, learn to relate to those experiences differently, and empowers you to make choices about how you want to be. My work is to support you, build awareness and understanding, and ultimately to help guide you towards living a full, vital, and connected life - as you define it.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
We often seek therapy because we are hurting and unhappy in our relationships with others and ourselves. Anxiety, sadness, restlessness, and loneliness are often the clues that we feel off-track. Whether you are new to it, or have been in it before, therapy presents the opportunity to invite a professional fellow human into your journey of meaningful living.
I provide evidence-based treatment for anxiety, relational, and trauma-related concerns for neurotypical and neurodivergent adults. I also work with individuals seeking to explore and understand their experiences of gender and sexuality. Our work begins with clarifying the nature of and sources of your concerns, setting a path forward, and working together to help you implement and maintain the changes you seek.
