An ideal client, is an unideal person. If humans were perfect they wouldn't need therapy. I work with individuals, couples & families with a range of issues. I help people address unskilled thoughts, emotions &/or behaviors, helping them let go of things that are no longer serving them. If an individual desires to grow by developing their sense of awareness, while developing skills to help them lower their stress levels & address their issues, I can help. I work with all mental health conditions, or stress related issues. No issue is too small or too big for therapy. I am here to support others in their goals & personal growth.

You may be here because you are struggling with feeling like your mental health concerns are controlling your life. Or that your grief from losing a loved one or many loved ones has become too much to bear. Maybe you and your partner have reached a level of conflict that is too painful for both of you. My goal is to listen with an open heart and mind and to be your guide as you move through the healing process. I believe that each person has the capacity to heal themselves, and with a therapist walking alongside you, that healing can be both powerful and long-lasting.

Therapy is a gift of time set aside to pause and acknowledge how you’re feeling, and what you need. In times of high anxiety, frustration, or loneliness, it’s important to develop meaningful ways to be present with our emotions and to learn new ways to nurture ourselves in the midst of life’s challenges. I specialize in relational therapy, a type of therapy that focuses on the quality of your relationships, both with yourself and with others. The goal in therapy is to help you navigate current challenges, past traumas, and to develop more healthy relationship patterns moving forward.

Therapy can be an excellent tool to help calm the chaos, and take stock of what is truly important in our lives, and allow ourselves the time to focus on changing our mindset, relational patterns, or life trajectory. It is my desire to help those who are hurting to make significant changes for themselves to better their mood, self-esteem and their relationships with others, both adults and children. Oftentimes life can become too overwhelming and stressful, and we may need some time and assistance to assess our situation, and find new ways to calm and 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.
