Together, we can better understand your innermost desires, as well as the fears and symptoms that stand between where you are now and a more fulfilling life.
Seeking therapy is often a reflection of significant discomfort in your life. Maybe you feel that your emotions have become difficult to manage, or perhaps you feel numb to them. You might feel stuck in your relationships or job, or perhaps you have experienced a significant event and are having difficulty adjusting to or making sense of it. These are just a few of the many situations that therapy can help you navigate by taking a curious approach to your thoughts and feelings and deepening your understanding of yourself, your relationships, and your mind.

I have assisted my clients in a variety of areas (including but not limited to) ADHD coaching, coping with stressful life changes and transitions, managing anxiety/low mood, self-esteem/relationship struggles, and trauma.
Do you feel stuck right now? Find it painful to live a life where things are challenging or chronically stressful? Despite having support from our trusted others, we can feel unsure how to move forward. I believe there is hope in even the hardest of times! I would love to partner with you to provide you support, encouragement and expertise. It is so important your therapist really listens to what your goals are and meets you where you are at, so you get the most out of therapy.

You feel like maybe there’s a rule book for life that you missed. You thought that once you got to this point in your career, you’d feel great, but instead of feeling confident and energized, you’re trapped. Your demanding job has left you anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, and underperforming. You've heard that you just need to prioritize better, lower your expectations, or do less - but none of that is working. Just like you, I know that doing less isn’t an option. So let’s do it better.

You constantly give your energy to others. It used to be so meaningful, but now it feels like you have nothing left to give. If you take any time for yourself at all, it’s clouded by anxiety and dread. Instead of rejuvenation, you blame yourself for being unable to fix things. Disconnection, overwhelm, exhaustion, and burnout are your constant companions, and they prevent you from enjoying the life you truly want to live. You’ve tried so hard to fix things, like you fix everything else. But you can’t. You don’t know what else to do and can’t see how anything could change.

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.
