Anxiety Therapists in North Scottsdale, Scottsdale, AZ

I believe people need to feel good; have the energy of body, clarity of mind and self confidence to be the best version of themselves. I have worked with individuals with disordered eating and body concerns for 30 years and have concluded that how they care for themselves is foundation. I treat anxiety and mood with integrated care; mind, body and heart. I am trained in lifestyle medicine, as well as eating disorders, so whatever end of the spectrum you fall, I got you and I get you. End the end, the relationship with our body and ourselves is the basis of all other relationships. So let's get started!

Throughout our lives we encounter trials and tribulations. There are hurdles to climb and mountains to move. Sometimes, we are able to do it alone, but often we need guidance, support, a change in our thinking and our behaviors. As a psychologist, my experience in working with individuals and their families across the lifespan, focuses on a holistic perspective, to help them climb their hurdles and move their mountains.

The day starts and self-doubt kicks in. Finding the energy to do what you need for others and yourself feels impossible. You're juggling so many roles as spouse, parent, child, business owner, friend, you name it and somehow have lost sight of yourself in the constant pressures of daily life. This leaves you riddled at times with anxiety , sadness, unpredicted tears- ultimately feeling depleted and angry that this cycle doesn't end. Then the secret thoughts begin: "Maybe I'm not good enough or worthy? I have no control. I should have known better. I've failed again..." Communicating these feelings is hard, leaving you stuck.
