I work with individuals who are experiencing a variety of challenges including anxiety, stress, depression, loneliness, inner conflict, and relational struggles.
I am passionate about supporting people in their healing journey. Through life’s challenges and circumstances, we adapt and develop strategies that help us cope and meet our needs. These protective strategies make sense and are successful until they no longer support us in a way that is helpful. Pain and trauma may continue to keep us stuck in patterns or limit us to certain roles that are not a true reflection of all of who we are.

Living on our nerves has become a way of life for a lot of us. Trauma can cause us to walk around in a state of anxiousness, weariness, or hyperactivity. Fear and anxiety can be debilitating, exhausting, and short-circuit our ability to problem solve. When that happens, we can become frustrated that our old coping skills are no longer helping us. Let's sit down together if you need a safe place to work out some old issues – or deal with new ones. I use CBT, DBT, EMDR, and family systems therapy. I can help clients who are dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, and conflicted marital relationships. Give me a call.

Life transitions can be difficult to navigate on your own. Sometimes you need someone to talk to. Relationships, past traumatic experiences, grief and loss, depression, and anxiety all bring emotions that can be overwhelming. Over time, negative coping behaviors and destructive patterns may have developed and now stand in the way of your goals and development. As a therapist, Neela Johnson is focused on healing and personal growth.

Ever felt unwelcome as a man in your world? Have you wondered “how can I be the man I’m expected to be?” Why don’t I do (or not do) the things that are good for me? Brothers of Odysseus and Brothers Counseling are created to help men find their inner King (leadership), inner Warrior (courage), inner Magician (wisdom), and inner Lover (compassion). When these virtues are out of balance we tend to compensate with isolation, anxiety, rage, depression, addiction, and many other strategies – none of which work. These compensations come from negative core childhood beliefs. We act and feel from these core beliefs.

As you open your eyes to another day, the tightness in your chest is still there. The hum of nervousness has begun in your belly and you're not even sure what you're really worried about. Dread fills your mind as you realize today is going to be one of those anxious days. You keep telling yourself to stop, relax and chill-out. It still doesn’t get better. You try to pause and see all you have going for yourself, thinking about the people who love you. Every day you give full effort to do what’s right, put your friends and family first. None of it works. None of it stops the worry. It feels as if the anxiety now has full control.

Hi, I’m Xenia! I am a licensed therapist with eight years of experience working in the mental health field. I particularly enjoy working with women who struggle with putting themselves first. Individuals who notice they are the support person for everyone else, but feel like they can’t lean on others or ask for help because that feels like even more of a chore. You might be at the point where it’s starting to feel too overwhelming, you can’t handle all of it on your own, and resentment towards your partner or others might already be starting to build.

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.
