It would be an understatement to say it is difficult to live with conflict, sadness, or anxiety.
As a solution-focused therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential allowing you to lead a stimulating life that gets you out of bed in the morning and keeps you engaged during the day. While we can't change difficult situations from our past, we can work together to better understand and resolve the current challenges present in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will work together to recognize any long-standing behavior patterns or distorted thoughts that may be stopping you from experiencing your life in a positive and meaningful way.

In a world where we value being a human “doing” rather then human “being” it can feel hard to survive let alone thrive. Therapy can be the place where you learn to hone new coping strategies, improve your sense of self worth and cultivate healthy boundaries. It is said if we live in the past we live in sadness, if we live in the future we live in worry but if we live in the now we live in peace.

Are you feeling empty, alone, detached, anxious or misunderstood? Integrative Psychotherapy can help. As an integrative psychotherapist, therapeutic inquiry begins with the assumption that I know nothing about your life experiences or how you make sense of them. Through inquiry, attunement and involvement we will discover together where you have experienced early interruptions in significant interpersonal relationships and how it has impacted your sense of self and adult life. These interruptions and misses are often experienced as depression, anxiety, compulsions, fears or agitation and often interfere with a sense of self and the development of healthy adult relationships.

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.
