Many begin therapy during transitional times of life, when it can be necessary to relieve underlying feelings of anxiety, distress or challenging emotions.
I identify as a (W)holistic Psychologist in orientation. Human beings have complex connections between their psyche, socio-cultural background and biological self, and are influenced by personal life experiences. The interplay of these aspects are where imbalances may occur and informative symptoms may arise. In my practice, we would collaborate on identifying these connections and reveal unconscious internal reactions that cause us to act, and react in our interpersonal relationships and life choices. My patients seek an authentic life, with increased self-knowledge and a decrease in pain and symptoms

Can you imagine that it's possible to behold your journey as an opportunity for growth, healing and enriched connections? What would it be like to know that you have the capacity to hold both grief and gratitude? It could be that you have come to a cross-road or are standing on significant thresholds as you face transitions, challenges and decision-making. Maybe grief has cracked you open, or you are struggling with illness and long to discover meaning and balance once again. Perhaps you have an emergent sense that there is “something more” that you are yearning for?

When we find ourselves in the midst of change as we are now, we can feel anxious, overwhelmed, scared, and isolated. We can learn however, to be flexible and resilient and to use these times as a way to strengthen ourselves. The urge to minimize our pain and power through, as though everything is the same, can lead to feelings of isolation, and fear. We may find we are lacking confidence in our ability to move forward, or we may find ourselves at a crossroads, not knowing which direction to take. Alternatively, we can develop our internal resiliency, broaden our perspectives and meet the challenges we face, and grow stronger.

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.
