Our Approach

At Actualize Counseling & Nutrition, we recognize that mental health and nutrition are deeply connected—yet too often treated in isolation. When addressed together, healing is more powerful and lasting. Our therapists and dietitians work collaboratively, helping you break through emotional and physical barriers. For many, this integrated approach is the missing piece when traditional methods alone haven’t worked.

Counseling Services

We specialize in trauma-informed care, incorporating CPTSD concepts alongside evidence-based therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients navigate eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and self-worth struggles.

ACT fosters psychological flexibility and a healthier relationship with food and self.

DBT builds skills in mindfulness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance.

CPT helps reframe trauma-related beliefs for lasting relief.

IFS promotes self-compassion by harmonizing internal conflicts.

CPTSD-Informed Care addresses emotional wounds, attachment trauma, and nervous system regulation.

By addressing root causes and combining mental health and nutrition counseling, we help clients break through emotional barriers, heal trauma, and create a balanced, fulfilling life.
