Do things you used to enjoy in life now seem out of reach? Perhaps you’ve struggled with relationships, work, or found that your loved ones don’t fully understand what you’re going through. Challenges with mental health, substance issues, and related problems can become overwhelming, stealing all the joy and meaning out of life. I’ve struggled at times myself, and I know how difficult it can be to reach out and trust others, especially mental health professionals. That’s why I make it a point to be non-judgmental and open with those I work with. After all, we all need help from time to time.

I work with clients who may be struggling with trauma, anxiety, life changes, and stress.
Do you find yourself struggling to find balance? Are you feeling overwhelmed or trying to navigate life transitions? You may be fed up with having a hard time making decisions for yourself, feeling stressed out, or be experiencing strained relationships with partners, family members, or friends. You might not even remember a time it didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to find joy in the day-to-day again. You’re ready to enjoy deep relationships without your past getting in the way. Most of all, you’re ready to love yourself again and to face your future with a sense of hope.

I work with youth and young adults struggling with anxiety, who need help defining and pursuing their goals.
My pup, Kyli, wakes me with an iconic stare. Need something, or see if I'm safe? Maybe it was a nudge with a pause, stare; or simply a stare, I'll never know. Dawn breaks. Cobra-buckle-collar, Rex doggles, leash & the Summer Moon coffee errand ensues. Moments are now cast to memory as life happens while we're planning to live it. Kyli purportedly smiles with that shepherd grin, distracted, the sun set with haste: scratches now remain. The lessons our pups teach us are vast. Love, forgiveness, the hypocrisy of time. "How do I capture this moment to be the person I imagine?" We question. Let's plan together. Reach out, & get in bloom.

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.
