While symptoms of depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder may bring you to therapy, you may also have more specific needs from a therapist.
My ideal client comes to me looking to navigate the complexities of identity, belonging, and cultural expectations. Often my clients have experiences that make them feel unique or alienated and create challenges within their relationships. This could be a mood disorder, a gender expression, or an immigration experience for them or their family. My client's goals often include: improved self-understanding, personal stability, and reduced distress.

We are often met with factors that challenge our sense of self-- anxiety, low self-esteem, interpersonal/familial pressure and expectations, individual and systemic violence, or a combination of these.
At all stages of our lives, we are met with opportunities to build our sense of self and draw on our innate resiliency towards healing. I work with youth who may be just developing their identity and making sense of the world around them, and adults who have experienced trauma or other challenges that threaten to shake that foundation.

I provide a nonjudgmental, empathetic environment for you to explore your identity, your values, and what living fully 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.
