My therapist taught me how to love myself—and by extension, my life partner, my kids, and everyone else! It is possible, no matter where you're starting from, to have less inner conflict, less outer conflict, and more love, peace, calm, and creativity in your life. And if you’re a woman with ADHD, I can help with that too. Your life doesn’t have to feel chaotic, and you don’t have to call yourself names (lazy, careless, stupid) to get things done. Whether I see you one-on-one or with an important other, I will meet you with compassion, hope, and acceptance. Because we all deserve not just to survive, but to thrive.

I work with clients to access their inner wisdom, helping them learn to tap into and recognize its constant presence. I help clients to become aware of the patterns that aren't serving them, allowing them to feel more empowered in their lives. ​ I studied yoga and mindfulness in Goa, India and spent several years teaching meditation, movement, and breathwork in Ohio. I incorporate these modalities, along with somatic processing and other mind-body techniques, into most sessions. I believe that when the mind and body are in a state of ease and safety, the natural progression towards healing takes place with little effort.

I have treated a wide range of concerns, including mood disorders, attachment challenges, trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.
As an Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) couples therapist, I help partners understand the patterns that keep them feeling stuck and uncover the deeper emotions beneath conflict. Most couples are not lacking love—they are caught in cycles of hurt, protection, and disconnection. Together, we slow these moments down so each partner can feel heard, understood, and safe enough to be vulnerable. Rather than focusing on blame, we work to identify and understand the cycle that keeps the relationship stuck. Through this process, couples can repair emotional injuries, rebuild trust, and create a stronger, more secure bond for both partners.

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.
