I help millennials who are struggling to cope throughout daily life with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and past trauma to learn how to love themselves and navigate the challenges of relationships, work, and whatever else life throws at you.
You may appear to have it all together to those around you, but internally you are struggling not to fall apart. You have a hard time balancing everything that is going on in your life and feel overwhelmed. Depression and anxiety are normal for you, but recently you feel they have been controlling your day to day. You're noticing patterns that you can't seem to break out of on your own. You know that it can get better, what you’ve been doing isn’t working. You’re tired of feeling stuck and you are motivated to learn how to love yourself, how to cope with daily struggles, and how to unlearn and change what you experienced growing up.

Specialty issues: grief and loss, life transitions, rebuilding life after divorce or separation, couples issues, non-drug approaches to managing anxiety and depression, mind-body-spirit wellness.
I work collaboratively with people to help them create the lives they want -- in their relationships, families, recreation and work. This process of exploration and discovery is inspiring and taps into hopes, dreams and imagination through story and re-connecting and remembering memories and experiences of connection and joy in their lives. Clients who benefit most from working with me are usually bright, creative and interested in freeing themselves from the constraints of family, social and cultural expectations that have become internalized and held as truths. This is a way of finding your way home ... to where your heart is.

I am EMDR trained, and my experience in intensive care has provided me with an understanding to help individuals in both trauma and anxiety.
Do you ever feel like your emotions are imbalanced, and you can't put your finger on why or how to manage them? Sometimes, when our feelings are unpredictable, it can lead to added stress, panic attacks, and personal reactions that may catch us off guard. Trauma, anxiety, and significant life changes, like a move or new job, can affect the way we respond in sensitive circumstances. You may want to discover the why, or you may just want to figure out a solution to regulate the turbulence and navigate the uncertainty.

By the time most people seek help, they’ve been operating from a place of their own core wounding, hurting themselves and others in the process. All of our behaviors serve a purpose to meet our needs, even if they are harmful to others and ourselves. I work with clients who have experienced trauma around relationships, have attachment issues, codependency, anxiety, depression, and survivors of abuse. Many people do not recognize unresolved grief, and the need to address it to heal current relationships. My expertise is in working with losses which may go back to early childhood, or recent losses that need to be grieved.

Common concerns I help with are stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, relationship problems, and issues about identity and purpose in life.
You want to not just feel better, but to GET better...and in a way that makes sense, addresses what is important to you, and is effective and empowering. Good therapy is not a temporary Band-Aid, but will help you develop knowledge and skills that last a lifetime. Real change involves a better sense of self-worth, understanding yourself and others, more tools in managing and expressing emotions, and more effective communication skills in relationships. We will clarify your main concerns and goals, identify the barriers to change, and then use your strengths and new tools to find solutions that fit your personality and lifestyle.

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.
