Get Started
ACT is a third-wave cognitive behavioral therapy developed by Dr. Steven C. Hayes and now recognized by the American Psychological Association as an empirically supported treatment for depression, anxiety, chronic pain, OCD, and psychosis.
Unlike traditional therapies that focus on eliminating negative thoughts, ACT teaches you to change your relationship with difficult inner experiences — reducing their grip on your behavior without requiring them to disappear.
The core goal is psychological flexibility: the ability to stay present, open to discomfort, and take action in line with your values — even on your hardest days. At SSHIMOH, we use ACT not just to manage symptoms, but to help you build a meaningful, engaged, and vibrant life.
Expertise meets empathy. Our world-class team is here for you.

Often, yes. Several treatments are compatible with breastfeeding, and our psychiatrists choose options carefully with you so both you and your baby stay safe.
