Now Accepting New Clients. For over twelve years, I worked with children, parents, and families as a behavioural therapist working with ASD. This has led me to now support children, teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, ADHD, OCD, emotional regulation and eating disorders. I’m also currently specializing in couples and family work targeting co-parenting, communication, disconnection, blended families and amicable separation. I use a holistic, integrative approach to therapy and am trained in CBT, ACT and Gottman. I also like to incorporate hands-on activities and art therapy into my work.

I work with both teens and adults experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma (including childhood trauma and racial trauma), posttraumatic stress disorder, attention deficit disorder (ADHD), addictions, compulsive behaviours and more. My therapy practice draws from my own experience as a client, the education and training I have attained and my vast work experience. All of this allows me to help my clients better understand the adversities they face, lessen depression and anxiety, process difficult memories, and develop a more loving relationship with themselves.

Anxiety Counsellors

What are the most common treatments for anxiety?

Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioural therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioural Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.

How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?

The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?

Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.

How effective is treatment for anxiety?

Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
