My specializations are in the treatment of depression,
anxiety
, trauma, relational problems, struggles with personal identity, and physical symptoms related to psychological distress.
It is my belief that therapy is a place where anyone can work towards a greater understanding of themselves and the patterns that might contribute to their difficulties. I practice attentive listening with the goal of fostering self-awareness, personal growth, and alleviation from emotional pain. I operate from a psychodynamic perspective when working with adults and teens, meaning that we will work towards a deeper understanding of unconscious conflicts, and examine how past experiences and relationships may be affecting how you operate in the present.

It's hard enough being a teen or young adult, but when you add in
anxiety
, depression, or trauma, it can feel impossible.
I help nerdy cool awkward teens and young adults navigate through a world that doesn't seem to fit. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being smart, funny, and knowing the ins and outs of their favorite games, life is hard. When they first come in, they tell me that they don't need therapy. They explain that other people don't get them, blame them, and expect them to be something they're not. They can't figure out where life went from sometimes fun/sometimes boring to unmanageable and overwhelming. They talk about their family not caring and not really having friends. They struggle to communicate with pretty much everyone.

fears
and worries. "It's like exercising a new muscle. It may hurt and get sore by working-out, but the muscle grows stronger the more effort you put into working on it." She has extensively researched the concept of empathy to help clients work through their trauma to develop secure attachment styles as well as understanding perspectives and co-dependency actions.

Dealing with feelings of
anxiety
, depression, hopelessness, PTSD, and/or the general difficulties of life can be hard. With that being said, I want to commend you for seeking out help to overcome these struggles. A person’s awareness and acceptance of their emotional complexities can be the difference between living a high quality of life, with no restrictions, and one that is filled with pain, loss and destructive cycles. The good thing is, all that is needed to foster recovery is honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness. These three qualities are the keys to the kingdom, if you will, regarding therapy.

I help highly intelligent over-achievers trade
anxiety
for confidence without feeling like a failure. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being smart, successful, and funnier than a viral meme, life is hard. When they first come in, they feel trapped by their image. They like being thought of as organized and successful, but inside they feel a total fake. When they stop to think about it, they realize they don't even feel like themselves anymore... it's like they've morphed into what other people expect them to be. Their greatest fear is people seeing the real person behind their mask and rejecting them.

anxiety
, depression, men, teens, relationship concerns, grief, and addiction.
We often go through seasons of life that are challenging and difficult to navigate. Perhaps it is a new obstacle that pops up or an old wound that needs healing. Sometimes we need a place to express the thoughts, feelings, and emotions we are experiencing. Whatever the reason, I believe counseling can be a tool to help guide and facilitate the growth and healing you are seeking to move forward in life. I utilize a variety of theoretical approaches and tailor therapy to what will uniquely work for you.

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.
