You've been turning down invitations, avoiding meetings where you might be put on the spot, and talking yourself out of opportunities that require being seen. You rehearse conversations before they happen, and replay them afterwards, convinced you said something wrong. You think to yourself, "What if I say something stupid and everyone notices?" Your heart races, your face flushes, and the urge to escape takes over. You've been building your life around avoiding the anxiety, but the avoidance has only made life even harder. If you're ready to stop letting anxiety decide what's possible for you, you're in the right place.

Social pressure, friendships, dating, identity, and school expectations can make adolescence feel like a lot to carry. As a parent, you may be noticing changes in your teen and wondering whether it's typical behavior or a sign of something you should be concerned about.

You try to help, but it feels like everything you do makes it worse, and you find yourself walking on eggshells around their moods. If your teen needs support, therapy can help.

Hello, my name is Lindsey, and I believe in meeting people where they are and working together with clients to find the right approach for them; the same therapeutic approach does not work for everyone. The thought of counseling can sometimes feel overwheIming. Therefore, I strive to help the client feel comfortable, supported, encouraged, and safe during session. I believe in taking a deeper look into what the underlying reason is for counseling, and I will be with you every step of the way. I want my clients to feel empowered and at peace by the time they are done with counseling. I look forward to meeting you!

I have been working with people experiencing PTSD, Depression/Anxiety. Drug Addiction, Bipolar Disorder, and Family issues... My general position is that our emotions serve a purpose, (like a check engine light on the dashboard of a car). After we check and repair the engine, the light goes out... If the issue remains unchecked and unrepaired, the light gets stronger and more insistent... I will work hand-in-hand with Psychiatrists, Psychologists, and MD's, if needed. However, I believe that the use of meds is only one step on the road to recovery.
