Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

I myself was diagnosed with Anxiety and ADHD later in life and had to adapt and learn how to live with certain diagnoses as does everyone who walks into therapy, so for me personally I can relate to these the best.
You might be feeling stuck in relationship patterns that keep repeating, struggling with communication, or feeling disconnected from the people closest to you. Maybe you’re navigating conflict in a partnership, family stress, or trying to understand how your relationships are impacting your mental and emotional well-being. You want a therapist who feels real, trustworthy, and grounded—someone you can be honest with and who will meet you where you are, without judgment, as you work toward healthier, more fulfilling connections.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker who works primarily with young adults navigating anxiety, college life, and the transitions that come after: graduating, starting a first job or career, moving somewhere new, dating, or just figuring out who you are outside of school.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I draw from CBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy to help you understand what's driving your anxiety and build tools you can actually use — not just talk about. We move at your pace, and you'll leave sessions with something concrete to carry forward.

I strive to provide collaborative, you-centered care, and I have particular interests in identity formation, depression, trauma, anxiety, and ADHD.
Are you motivated to understand yourself better, grow in perspective and insight about your world and circumstances, and translate this learning into meaningful action? If so, we may be a good match! I believe truly effective therapy happens when we are ready to look deeply and critically at our current situation, ready to really try to make sustainable, practical changes, and able to be humble and self-compassionate in our attempts to flourish. You do not have to know exactly what you want or need, or have all the answers, but being willing to find those together is the key to meaningful therapy.

Anxiety Therapists
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.

What are the most common types of treatment 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.

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.
