We offer ketamine therapy for depression, anxiety, and PTSD.
At Isha Health, our ideal client is a working professional who is facing overwhelming stress, anxiety, or depression that affects their daily life. Many of our clients feel trapped in a cycle of exhaustion, unable to enjoy their careers or personal lives as they once did. They may have tried traditional therapies or medications, but they haven’t found the relief they’re seeking. Their goal is to regain control, feel balanced again, and experience life with clarity and purpose. They want a solution that is both effective and personalized, tailored to their unique mental health journey.

I work with adults exploring issues such as: depression & anxiety; loneliness, isolation, & grief; adult & childhood trauma; relationship & communication issues; job & life dissatisfaction; parental & sibling relationships; marriage, divorce & separation; parenting issues with young or grown children.
I’m a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and a clinical supervisor. For the past 15 years I’ve helped people better understand themselves, heal from past difficulties, and build stronger interpersonal connections. Examining one’s difficulties requires courage and resolve. Therapy is a long-term investment in yourself and in your desire to live a fuller, more satisfying life. With a lot of effort and patience, the therapeutic process can pays off.

Life can feel overwhelming--but it doesn't have to. If you have experienced trauma, whether recurring or as an isolated incident, even the typical stresses of a normal day can provoke anxiety, fear, anger, or withdrawal. Luckily, therapy can provide you tools to deal with life's challenges, enabling you to minimize your stress levels and continue your personal growth. I will guide you to increased happiness and well-being by supporting you in exploring and enacting lasting, positive changes in your relationships with others, and most importantly, with yourself.

I am experienced in working with people confronted by relationship challenges, low self esteem, anxiety, depression, family challenges and self harm.
Most of us lug around a suitcase full of our thoughts, feelings, family history and past experiences and have no idea what's in there. Our current responses to and experience of life come from the contents of that suitcase. Together in therapy we gently unpack it. We will see what is working for you, what needs more support and what has served it's purpose but no longer works. I work collaboratively and am curious about all the things that make you who you are. I am particularly interested in working with people who feel misunderstood or unimportant.

Individual therapy may focus on understanding unhelpful thought patterns and fears.
Welcome! People have all kinds of thoughts and feelings. Therapy is one of the few places where you can express yourself fully without fear of judgment. I offer an accepting, inclusive environment where you can feel comfortable showing up just as you are. Whether you are single, dating, or in an established relationship, I can help you reconnect with yourself and others more effectively. I also work with anxiety and attention issues. Lack of quality sleep can also be an obstacle to mental health. I am certified in CBT-I (Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Insomnia) to help my clients overcome insomnia and achieve better rest.

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.
