My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

Hello, I work with individuals and couples. Most of my work is Brief Emotional Therapy, 4-7 sessions, although I do have folks that have been with me for longer. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) entails building psychological flexibility. The focus is on personal values and encouraging individuals to live more meaningfully and purposeful lives by fostering acceptance of wanted and unwanted thoughts and experiences in and out of our control and facilitating commitment and action towards living a valued life. Thank you, Dr. Robert Lusson

I enjoyed the first session I had with Dr. Lusson. He had shared his views to get me to know about him and who I am talking too. A lot of what he said opened new opportunities and helped me learn better ideas of what I want to be.

I do think I’m gonna schedule another session with Dr. Robert Lusson. I believe that he least gave me a good direction or a few options in which to help me resolve the biggest things that I wanted to talk about. I feel like his style was easy for me to receive.

For my first session Dr. Lusson was really kind and just listened to me. He really helped me unload everything that’s been going on. He didn’t make me feel judged and I felt like I really could trust him. I felt a lot of relief after just one session and went and booked my next one after.
