I specialize in working with adults who suffer from
anxiety
and depression, relationship issues, family and work related concerns, lack of self-worth, identity and purpose, living with chronic illness - especially cancer.
If your life is fully functional, you don't have to struggle to understand why things are the way they are. It is when we hit a wall in our relationships, career or health that we get pushed out of our comfort zone and start looking for answers. People often think that they can deal with all these on their own. However, emotional wellbeing is essentially a two person process as we can only find ourselves in the eye of another. The therapist's questions might bring out the answers in you that will support you in developing a much needed fresh perspective in life.

Are you losing sleep, noticing a change in your appetite, in your ability to concentrate on important decisions? Maybe you have noticed a change in your relationships, or are having difficulty making connections and feeling supported? Many people face difficulties in their life related to life transitions, including experiences such as moving, whether to a new country, a new job, school, or neighborhood. People face career and school challenges, relationship changes, grief and loss, and everyday life stressors. This can feel like a heavy weight is upon us, making it difficult to move forward or cause us to
panic
, and lose control.

We live in uncertain times. However, many times we experience
anxiety
, depression, etc. because we spend too much time focusing on what we didn't get in the past or worried about a future that is not here yet...in other words, we focus on everywhere but HERE and NOW. And it's not about WHAT happened to us, but HOW WE DEFINE what happened to us.

anxiety

When facing problems, we may feel confused and overwhelmed. We may seek advice from friends and family, but end up feeling misunderstood. Counseling provides the opportunity for an objective approach in identifying and understanding needs and feelings. As we discover new approaches and methods, we can proceed on our path to achieving our highest potential.

Accepting New Clients - Do you feel stuck when everyone else seems to have it together? Are you struggling to find purpose, but are unsure of what that looks like?

Anxiety Therapists
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.
