I primarily support adults and teens who are looking to do work around self-worth and self-esteem, navigating major life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, and growth in parenting/caregiving.
Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. It can be challenging to find the right therapist, and I look forward to seeing if we might be a good fit! I believe strongly in the inherent worth of people and viewing the human condition from a place that is non-pathological and intrinsically person-centered. Fundamentally, I seek to help people uncover the force that is within them all along- through cultivating a deeper understanding of their individual needs, values, and goals. I believe in the profound power of working to eliminate shame and normalizing neurodiversity and the neurodiverse experience.

Life comes at us fast and we’re not always ready for it but that’s okay! I believe that we all crave connection with our peers, friends, family, and partners. And when we aren’t working on those connections, we’re working to build our connection with ourself. To fully work through that and make progress, I use a direct approach in helping clients address concerns that may arise from their connections with others or with themself. I believe that the most progress can be made when it’s accompanied with empathy and unconditional positive regard - two pillars of therapeutic work to foster growth and a sense of safety.

Do you ever feel overwhelmed or weighed down by the curveballs life has thrown at you? As if there are a lot of feelings or thoughts whirling inside you that you cannot explain or understand? Or maybe you just don't feel like yourself anymore but can't put a finger on when or why things changed. I believe that a genuine therapeutic relationship and a nonjudgmental space to explore our stories can help us heal what feels broken. The most common issues I enjoy working with are depression, grief, adjustment to major life/career changes, ADHD symptom management and relationship troubles.

When stroke patients receive psychological care during the early stages of recovery, this can help improve levels of confidence, motivation, and well-being. More psychological care results in more positive mood and confidence. Positive mood and confidence motivate more action towards recovery, which results in greater physical improvements. Physical improvements further boost confidence and positive mood, enhancing the cycle of positive mental health. Some options I utilize for Mental Health Care after stroke: Psychotherapy, Positive psychology, Mindfulness, and Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT).

Change is inevitable and life is unpredictable- two guaranteed discomforts in life. Whether caused by unexpected and unforeseen circumstances or recurring throughout your life, such great discomfort can be trying on anyone’s well-being. Hardships and traumas do not discriminate and can affect all humans, causing us distress within our emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual parts. I believe therapy is a place to heal our wounds; to learn how to cope with life stressors and find ways to self-soothe; and to have a non-judgmental space held by someone who can provide safety and security. You do not have to do this alone.

Maybe you've received diagnoses that don't make sense to you, or you've been told your struggles are "all in our head" and you just need to "try harder." Many adults with signs and symptoms of ADHD & Autism share this experience. They are folx who find themselves burnt out and stretched thin after decades of wearing a mask of inauthenticity, trying to fit themselves into the mold that neurotypical society says is the "right" way to be. But what if I told you that's not true? That there is no wrong or right way to be your authentic self in the world, regardless of what you may have been told throughout your life.

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.
