I have training and experience in couples work, anxiety, depression, relationships, trauma, addictions and meditation/spirituality, and enjoy supporting personal growth.
Who are you, actually? Our sense of self is shaped by surviving our parents, social groups, and the cultures we grow up in. Is that really you? Old, unconscious reactive patterns can stop you from living the life you would like, and so can relationship injuries and stress. You CAN change and rebuild yourself in new ways, with focused time and effort! I use multiple approaches in my work. We'll focus on what you're doing right, as well as barriers or problems. I encourage awareness, mindfulness and somatic/ body based approaches along with changing unhelpful thought patterns, and clarifying your values to help direct your goals.

People come to therapy for a lot of different reasons. Everyday life can be filled with disappointment, sadness, and situations and people that make you feel angry or hopeless. Past trauma or patterns of thinking may be holding you back or causing anxiety and depression. Maybe you have a dream that means the world to you and you haven’t been able to find a way to make it come true. Does any of this sound familiar?

In my experience, health comes from getting to know ourselves deeply and learning to care for ourselves well. My practice is oriented around supporting you to learn and befriend the depth, richness, and gifts inside you. In my years of working with people, I have not met a single individual who does not contain a vibrant inner world of wisdom and well-being. Sometimes we just need warm support to learn how to access it. Clients tell me that our work together exposes them to the possibility of companioning and caring for themselves and others in a way they had not conceived as possible.

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.
