Specializing in anxiety and OCD! Do you feel stuck in your anxiety? Are you always asking "What if..." questions? Are intrusive thoughts or memories upsetting you? Have you tried a lot of ways to cope but not really found anything that works in the long-term? Perhaps your anxiety is also affecting your ability to be present and to function in the ways that you would like to in your relationships, school or work life. If this is the case, do these issues then lead you to experiencing feelings of shame, wondering if there is something wrong with you, or questioning if things will ever get better?
You are not alone and change is possible. Anxious thoughts and feelings do not have to dictate your life and relationships. Together, we will work on building skills to help you decrease your anxious feelings, get unstuck from your thoughts, develop more helpful coping strategies, and get back into the relationships and activities that matter to you.
My commitment is to come alongside you with compassion and care to offer direct, practical support that can make a difference now. I utilize a values-based approach to help you get back to meaningfully engaging in your life – whatever that looks like for you! I would be honored to work with you as you seek to live your life more fully.
