Since you are seeking help, you clearly want things to be different in your life but you may not know where to start. I can help you learn tools and strategies to overcome substance abuse, addiction, codependency issues, depression, or anxiety issues and support you in learning and practicing the skills you need to stay on your new path. While the idea of overcoming substance abuse, addiction, codependency, depression, or anxiety issues may feel overwhelming, it is possible. I understand that it can be intimidating to ask for help: I agree to walk beside you every step of the way.

Imagine a life in which you wake up and are excited by the day's prospects, where you aren't burdened by anxiety, depression, painful thoughts, or past trauma. What does that life look like? How far away do those goals seem? For many of my clients, beginning their journey in therapy often prompts the thought that their life worth living is unattainable. Working together, we will break down those barriers to living the life that you deserve, using interventions proven effective through clinical research. I am also available for evaluations if you are struggling to make progress in therapy, or need additional recommendations.

As a generalist, I enjoy providing therapy for a broad variety of presenting concerns, such as trauma, relationship distress, performance issues at work or in school, and many diagnoses, such as anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and more.
Sometimes people come to therapy with a specific concern: fear of commitment, grief, a bad habit. Other times, they have difficulty putting to words what they are experiencing, but something doesn't feel quite right. Together with my clients, we decide our focus, our goals, and the direction we take. Whether you know what brings you in or not, we'll figure it out together. I offer psychotherapy, generally 50-minute sessions, though frequency and length of sessions are flexible. My current hourly rate is $170. I also offer psychological and cognitive evaluations for a flat fee. Please reach out if you would like more information.

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.
