With over 20 years of experience working with teens, I understand that being a girl today comes with overwhelming expectations and stress whether it is school issues and peer relationships, coping with intense emotions, dating/relationships issues, low self-esteem, social media, or struggling with anxiety.
I specialize in empowering teen girls as they journey through adolescence and enter young adulthood. I help girls develop the tools they need to have strong peer and family relationships, make healthy choices, build confidence/self-esteem, and Be Happy! My approach is proactive and preventive because adolescence is a time for learning and personal growth. My style is relaxed, friendly, and down-to-earth. From the moment your teen meets me, she will feel respected, accepted, and understood. Our work together will focus on skill and confidence building, NOT labels and stigma.

Willing to go into the field such as flying, riding elevators, traveling on roads to help them face their fears.
An Ideal client is one who is willing to work actively with me to solve their issues. We work together to develop a treatment plan and reach their goals. I especially enjoy working with anxious and phobic clients and see them face, confront and feel the freedom that comes from being phobic-free and more relaxed. I have a passion for working with victims of narcissists (bullies) who learn how to stand up to these people and no longer feel like a victim.

My experience is in working with relationship issues, grief, trauma, abuse, behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, and family conflict.
The first appointment will involve an evaluation of your needs and goals. What you hope to accomplish will direct the course of treatment. As we work together you can expect to gain better self-understanding through thought-provoking dialogue and reflection. The therapeutic process sometimes requires talking about difficult subjects or having challenging conversations so compassion, honesty, and respect will be guiding principles during those times.

My clinical orientation is psychodynamic and interpersonal, and we will also use other therapies including Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral for an eclectic, rounded treatment approach. I have advanced pyschoanalytic training in couples therapy which also informs work with individuals.

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.
