Possible reasons why you want to start therapy: You want to learn more about yourself. You are feeling alone, misunderstood, stuck and you may or may not have people around you who support you but you still feel this way. You want to make a change or you're in the middle of a change (wanted or unwanted) and you need support. You are looking for an objective, skilled and compassionate opinion. You are in need of someone to point out your blind spots, with discretion. You feel unable to achieve your dreams or life goals no matter how hard you try. If any of these reasons resonate with you, I can help.

I am EMDR certified and trained and specialize in trauma, depression, and anxiety.
Feeling down all the time is such a heavy burden and can feel like there's no way out of it. Just when one low moment seems to pass, another wave of sadness or emptiness can come crashing in. It can feel like an endless cycle of fatigue, hopelessness, and disconnection from everything around you. It’s hard to see when the darkness will lift—especially in a world that often feels overwhelming, isolating, and hard to keep up with, which only deepens the sadness. If this sounds like you, you're not alone!

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.
