For smoking cessation or phobias, typically a package of 5 sessions is encouraged.
When a client comes to me, often they are overwhelmed with many emotions and do not know where to start. As we sit and talk, I learn about where these emotions are connected to. I talk about getting to the root of it where it is all connected so you can begin to heal layer by layer. We learn about nervous system calming, emotional regulation and resilience and tools that you can keep in your toolbox so that therapy does not have to be a lifelong commitment, but instead your own personal healing journey.

I am a neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed counselor who believes in the power of human connection. In systems and cultures that often tell you to handle your difficulties independently and quietly, it can be difficult to seek help. As a fellow neurodivergent being, I particularly enjoy working with folks who are neurodivergent or think they may be from a strength-based framework. I also have a passion for working with survivors of trauma and collaborating to re-establish a sense of safety and trust in relationships.

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.
