I worry all the time
My approach is based on cognitive behavioral therapy and intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy. Through these evidence-based theoretical lenses, I offer you a way to identify how defenses prevent experiencing feeling and bring on symptoms and presenting problems... and then we work to build an internal connection to feeling, creating adaptive action.

This being human thing is tricky, isn’t it? Perhaps you see yourself trying to do everything “right” in order to get to where you want to be or think you’re supposed to be, only to find yourself not making much progress or getting stuck in the same place? You're even often aware of what you may be doing "wrong" - as you continue to do it! Maybe you’ve even read the books or understand your patterns, but you are having a hard time changing. Maybe there's a sense of "performing" life instead of living it and you wonder who you are beneath the expectations of others and the roles you hold.

Hi, I’m Sarah Hughes. I know what it’s like to struggle with mental health because I’ve been there myself. It can feel like a tight knot that gets tighter the more you try to unravel it. It’s having a critical voice inside you that always seems to have the answers, even when it’s not helpful. Stepping outside your comfort zone can overwhelm both your mind and body. You might feel like you’re never quite meeting expectations—simultaneously too much and not enough. It’s navigating a world that often misunderstands or doesn’t accommodate your unique strengths and challenges.

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.
