A lot of us seeking therapy are thoughtful, capable, and self-aware—yet still feel overwhelmed by anxiety, self-criticism, or emotional patterns that don’t shift through insight alone.
As these parts feel understood and less burdened, many clients experience greater clarity, and self-trust. That can turn into more calmness, cultivating a healthier true north for our nervous system. Therapy with me is not about fixing what’s “wrong,” but about helping you access the steadiness and resilience that are already within you.

I provide tailored therapy for women and gender-expansive people navigating reproductive life transitions, including infertility, perinatal mental health, pregnancy loss, perimenopause, and menopause — with a focus on anxiety, overwhelm, and reclaiming a sense of self.
I draw on the evidenced based modality, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), because it meets women exactly where they are — not by trying to silence the fear or "fix" the anxiety, but by helping you unhook from the spiral of unhelpful thoughts, make peace with what's outside your control, and reconnect with what matters most to you.

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.
