Anxiety Therapists in Millwood, WA
If you are encountering grief, conflict, alienation, transition, longing, fear, or uncertainty, I am honored to walk beside you and provide the therapeutic space for what is needed.
I believe the healing process needs to work directly with the depth of a person's story, patterns, and possibilities, and that aspects of this process cannot always be measured, named, or rushed. I view my role in this process as a deep listener supporting you as you process, integrate, and transform your experience through values-based action.

I am skilled at working with neurodivergent individuals, particularly people with ADHD, and people who present with anxiety, depression, stress, OCD, and trauma.

I am experienced and trained in trauma reprocessing, cognitive rehabilitation therapy, internal family systems, anxiety and mood disorders, post traumatic stress and faith development.
I believe sometimes all we need is for someone to listen to us without judging to help find answers. In my office, the client is completely involved in determining the course of therapy. You can expect an initial session to be of gathering personal history, health history, and family of origin history. We will work together to see if we can begin to identify the problem and what you might want to do about the problem. We try to establish how we will know when this has been accomplished, how often to meet, as well as any arrangements for payment.

Although I see individuals and couples who have general concerns about depression, anxiety, or other life changes, I also have specialized training in treating sexual dysfunction.
It takes courage to seek help and examine yourself, and finding the therapist that matches your style and needs is an important part of that process. My style is warm, active, and I will help you to challenge yourself in a safe and supportive environment. Humor also is important to me, so be prepared to incorporate some levity during our meetings as well.

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.
