Sadness, depression, grief, anger, anxiety, betrayal, confusion, our relationships, and work stresses can leave us feeling lost and out of balance with ourselves and with others important to us. I have worked for 20+ yrs. with individuals and couples in Maryland and Massachusetts. I actively engage with my clients to bring about new insights, and fresh ways of thinking, feeling and behaving so a re-balance can occur. Together we work to release negative core beliefs and shift dysfunctional patterns resulting in clients' greater clarity, empowerment, peace, and satisfaction. Clients become more connected to themselves and others.

Life is about relationships. Yet anxiety and feelings of unworthiness can lead to self sabotage. I work with people to identify emotional roadblocks, alter negative self talk, recognize strengths, and implement habits that will bring a sense of affinity to others, and more kindness to ourselves. Change is possible, when we see the possibilities. With couples, I am interested in connecting the dots between intention, perception, and reactivity. When defensiveness is decreased, mutual flexibility and loving communication grows. With Life Coaching, areas of health, education, career, and relationship are addressed.

Emotional and Mental health issues inevitably have become part of our everyday living, though we simply cannot allow them to rule our lives. Learning to cope with stress, emotional pains and disappointing experiences (whether be school, relationship, work/other daily functioning) is a prerequisite to human existence.

Not only will we relieve the symptoms but also achieve personal growth, acceptance of ourselves and most importantly, a liberating feeling of being understood. Every individual is unique and will have different needs and desired outcomes for their therapeutic process. With that in mind, whatever each specific client is seeking will be respected and worked towards.

I enjoy working with people who want to improve the quality of their relationships, individuals who seek to release and reduce fears and anxiety or are ready to address patterns of negative thinking.
My work as an individual and couple's therapist rests on the belief that we all have inherent abilities to change and grow. When we feel safe and accept ourselves, we are more likely to be curious and open to make the changes we look for. I collaborate with clients to focus not only on their challenges but also on their strengths.

Anxiety Therapists

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.
