I believe that generational trauma, attachment style, family upbringing, intersectionality and cultural conditioning all influence how we experience the world. It is up to us to identify and unlearn maladaptive patterns of behavior. My goal is to help you feel connected to yourself and others through increased self-awareness. Most of my professional experience has been working with individual kids, adolescents and adults on problems related to self-esteem, stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma, identity development, among other things.

As life progresses, we each encounter difficulties that create ripples in our lives. I aim to create a collaborative space in which to discuss the ways in which clients can experience change and feel empowered. Creating a non-judgemental space is crucial to me within the therapeutic environment, so that exploration of self can occur. I have had extensive clinical experience in identity formation, depression, coping, grief, comorbid mental health diagnoses, and anxiety. I enjoy developing a strong alliance with clients in order to facilitate a sense of growth.

Do you find yourself caught in a web of worry and sadness despite your best efforts? You find yourself anxious or depressed where simple tasks feel overwhelming and drain the little energy you do have causing you to feel not good enough. I understand how anxiety and depression can become daunting companions, casting shadows on our daily joys. But you’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to stop isolating. You’re ready to recognize your own triggers and patterns so you can begin breaking cycles. Most of all, you’re ready to improve your emotional well-being and improve your quality of life. I want to help you get there.

I predominantly work with adult persons on concerns regarding anxiety, depression, anger, trauma, cultural/racial identity exploration, grief and loss, first generation college experiences, immigrant experiences, and life transitions.
Taking care of yourself by going to therapy can be a brave and liberating step towards living a more fulfilling life, and I hope to have the opportunity to embark on that journey with you. I find that when we face obstacles and stressors over a prolonged period of time, we begin to lose connection with ourselves and our communities. In my practice, I endeavor to create a warm, trauma-informed, and multiculturally attentive therapeutic relationship that allows for an emotionally safe space to explore a deeper connection with yourself and in-turn, others.

Each of us has the ability to impact the world in a unique and powerful way and we are all born with the desire to deeply connect with others. Struggles with anxiety, depression, insecurity, burnout and stress can discourage us and keep us from realizing our full potential. Counseling gives you the opportunity to feel seen, heard and understood as well as challenged. It is through therapy that we come to understand ourselves more fully allowing personal growth, self esteem and possibly true satisfaction with the life we are given.

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.
