Areas of specialty include the treatment of anxiety, depression, eating disorders, as well as drug and alcohol addiction.
I am a psychotherapist who has been in private practice in for over 20 years. My professional experiences have given me a deep appreciation for our innate capacity to not only survive, but to transform difficult life events in ways that foster understanding, healing, and personal growth. For some, psychotherapy can provide a safe and nurturing environment in which to learn healthy coping strategies to better deal with the stressors of daily living. For others, it can provide a unique opportunity to work on a deeper level to address core issues related to family of origin, trauma, sexuality, and addiction.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in working with children, teens, and families. I work with children and teens individually, often incorporating family sessions to help facilitate growth and change. My goal is to strengthen an individual's confidence while enhancing the family bond. I enjoy my work, and I am dedicated to approaching each person with sincerity, respect and honesty, sharing practical rather than theoretical solutions. I intuitively and compassionately support people to find freedom from limiting beliefs, perceptions, and behavior patterns, in order to discover their natural, balanced state of being.

Anxiety Support Groups

What are the most common treatments for anxiety?

Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular 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 Behavioral 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.
