Some of us struggle with anxiety and depression.
You are aware that you struggle to trust others and have seen how this impacts your relationships. You often wonder if you are good enough. Your history has impacted you in such a way that building walls is an automatic response to create a sense of safety. Experiencing trauma causes us to react in ways that allows us to survive, but those same strategies can be detrimental once the trauma has ended. I am here to help you process the trauma you have experienced and gain skills to demonstrate self-compassion, self-love, and self-acceptance.

Maybe you grew up in an environment where chaos, emotional inconsistency, or survival was the norm, and now, despite how capable you appear, you feel anxious, activated, or disconnected from yourself.
I work with women who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in patterns they don't fully understand, even after trying to push through. Many struggle with anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, or deep disconnection from themselves. If desired, Christian faith and biblical truth are central to their healing, and that is fully welcomed here.

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.
