Clients who see me are often painfully impacted by ADHD, neurodivergence, anxiety, executive functioning difficulties, procrastination, creative blocks, imposter syndrome; C-PTSD, narcissistic & emotional abuse, codependency, people-pleasing, relationship issues, family conflict, estrangement; and OCD (including Pure-O & R-OCD). While I enjoy working with clients from all fields, I specialize in treating creative professionals & artists. As a creative, you may be building your career or considering a total pivot. Regardless of where you are now, the unknowns of where you'll end up can be anxiety-provoking. Maybe now more than ever.

My experience includes treating symptoms such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, self-esteem and self-image issues as well as relationship issues.
Life can be complicated, full of change and challenges. Although we have all come up with ways get through these times or cope, sometimes challenges persist, resurface or feel overwhelming. Significant change requires deep personal examination, something difficult to do on our own.

I am a specialist in grief, loss and trauma encompassing the entire spectrum of women's maternal mental health. I help women(and their partners) with healthy pregnancies, postpartum depression and anxiety, pregnancy loss, terminations and infertility - whether through stillbirth, miscarriage, late term loss, IVF/IUI failures, selective termination or pregnancy releases (aka abortion). Sadly, 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage and 1 in 8 will have trouble with conception. I blend psychology, ritual, spirituality, reiki, energy healing, guided meditations and more to help facilitate and support women, couples and families.

Who you are: a millennial individual (or couple) and finally ready to explore therapy and spur meaningful change. I help you articulate what’s at the root of your concerns: What's important to you and what is getting in the way of seeing that lived out?

I utilize CBT, DBT, EMDR and psychodynamic approaches in my practice and am experienced in addressing depression, anxiety, loss, relational problems, trauma, major life transitions, and LGBTQ-related issues.
It is continually inspiring to be part of the collaborative exploration of how we think, feel, function, and experience the world around us which occurs in therapy. In my work with clients and in my own therapy, I’ve seen how a relationship with an empathic professional can be critical in developing self-understanding and making practical, positive changes. My goal is to create a warm and nonjudgmental space where you can feel comfortable and safe, while also providing honest and direct feedback to support your growth.

I've collaborated with individuals and couples facing developmental trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, mood swings, identity issues, obsessionality, and relationship conflict among others.
Through my clinical/personal experience, I've learned how life transitions, intricate relationships, and unresolved trauma can trigger a range of internal and external reactions that stray from our core values. I firmly believe that when our nervous system responds to traumatic events, the resulting adaptive energy sometimes remains within the body, creating dysfunctional patterns that perpetuate emotional, somatic, and psychological distress, ultimately leaving us feeling stuck and isolated. We can work together to reestablish your emotional and physical well-being, laying the foundation for healthy relationships.

I work with clients 17+ and specialize in treating eating disorders, body image, anxiety and depression.
Many of us struggle in our lives unconsciously stuck with a perspective that helped us survive our past, but is no longer serving us in the present. I help my clients explore the underlying thoughts & beliefs that may be contributing to feeling stuck in their lives. By helping release from these unhealthy patterns I hope to guide clients to better and more fulfilling lives.

You may be struggling with overwhelming anxiety, anger, or conflict.
I specialize in treating anxiety, stress, trauma, relationship difficulties, and behavioral problems. When overwhelming experiences leave their mark, it can be hard to know where to turn for help. Memories, fears, distress, and anger take over and damage our relationships. Parenting becomes fraught with tension. Children lose control, resulting in tantrums and behavior problems. By understanding the root of your distress, I can help you or your family find new ways to cope.

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.
