I am a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional.
Are you feeling mentally and physically exhausted? Do you find yourself meeting the needs and wants of work, family and other projects but not having enough energy left to focus on you? We give so much to others that we often forget it is essential to take care of ourself first. Sometimes we do not recognize the impact that stress, anxiety, and depression have on our mental and physical state because we are on ‘auto-pilot’. Being mindful of our mind and body leads to awareness, healing, and peace.

Hello and welcome! I provide a creative and exploratory environment for children, preteens, teens, and their families to navigate through the anxiety and struggles of life's challenges. With a foundation in expressive therapy and play therapy, based on client presentation and needs, I integrate both directive and non-directive play therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and mind/body connection. I find that therapy is not a one size fits all experience and I strive to engage clients in creatively finding what will support them within the therapeutic experience.

We are capable of far more than we realize. Often, we limit ourselves through worn out narratives surrounding shameful experiences and perceived faults. What we need is a new perspective and ways to rewrite our stories that empower us to move forward with purpose. I work with teens and adults navigating depression, anxiety, stress, and challenging life transitions, amongst other issues. I support clients to build inner resources, gain self-compassion, and become empowered individuals.

When I first meet with individuals, they are often struggling with depression, anxiety, stress, and self esteem. Sometimes this is related to addiction, eating disorders, or trauma & PTSD. No question about it - every therapeutic journey is unique and deserves a response tailored to the needs of the person. Through a genuine and healing connection, let's work together to integrate your past experiences, find meaning in the present, and explore the distant futures and worlds you've only dreamed of.

I have cultivated a skill-set to help clients process and heal from trauma, depression, and anxiety.
You are not what happens to you. Crisis, transition, and past suffering can be overwhelming, and are even more so when you try to navigate them alone. Therapy is an invitation to step into a safe and nurturing environment to explore and resolve difficult challenges in your life. With safety and presence, tending to and healing past wounds is possible. The things that have happened to you can become one part of your legacy, not the biggest part. You are not your suffering, you are so much more than that.

As a therapist, I specialize in helping people navigate challenges such as anxiety, perfectionism, identity exploration, and healing from attachment trauma. I especially love working with those who feel disconnected from their current lives and are exploring their identity and purpose. Many of my clients realize they need change but don't know where to start. They often have struggled with anxiety, burnout, and relational trauma, leading to repetitive painful patterns and isolation. These patterns, once protective, now cause pain and suffering. I have an affinity for working with LGBTQ+ folks and those living nontraditional paths.

Motherhood is harder than you thought it would be. You wanted this, so you should feel joy, right? And you shouldn't feel sad or angry, but you do. That other mom told you they instantly fell in love when they held their baby, but you're worried you didn't feel that. You do self-care when you can and even tried meditation to feel calmer, but it doesn't work. You're overwhelmed. You miss how easy things used to feel. Maybe you feel that being a mom isn't what you thought it was or maybe it isn't for you - yet you're here. It’s confusing. You wonder if it gets easier. You deserve relief. You're not alone. It gets better.

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.
