Behavior
is Not a Mystery. 

It follows rules.  Learning those rules changes how we practice, teach, and live.  Context key. When behavior is understood in context, flexibility becomes possible and workable change follows.

The Deeply Functional podcast offers short, practice grounded reflections on psychological flexibility, clinical work, and living with care under real constraints.

Train. Adapt. Thrive.

Helping Individuals Master Contextual Strategies, Build Flexibility, and Thrive.

Personal Contextual Training

Unhook from your thoughts.  Shift your behavior.  Live on purpose.   Move beyond talk-based support.  This is not therapy.  This is not coaching.  This is skill-based behavioral training for individuals who want to respond more effectively to life’s challenges.  Learn how to track your patterns, work with your mind, and take values-aligned action—even when it’s hard.

Clinician Skills & Consultation

Deepen your ACT work. Build FC/RFT fluency. Think functionally.  For clinicians ready to move beyond the six-process model, these consultation sessions and training materials help you see behavior through a contextual lens.  Develop confidence using ACT-in-Context, functional process notes, and moment-to-moment shaping—without relying on content-driven interventions.

Academic & Professional Programs

Behavioral science, made teachable.  From guest lectures and team trainings to full curriculum design, CST translates behavioral flexibility (ACT/PBT) into language educators and leaders can use. I offer experiential presentations, custom workshops, and ready-to-integrate materials for schools, organizations, and classrooms.
