Anxiety and depression can make us feel stuck, but there is hope. Stress feels overwhelming, but this too shall pass. Relationship challenges can feel like the end of the world, but you can overcome. I want to help you get better and reclaim your strength. Often people are intimidated by the thought of going to see a therapist. Therapy doesn’t have to be painful, it is a process to having a better understanding of yourself.

I work with clients who long to… overcome anxiety's grip, mend strained relationships, navigate past traumas, and find strategies to thrive in a world not always attuned to their neurodivergent experiences.
Does your neurodivergent brain struggle to deal with the non-neurodivergent world? Are you struggling with a daily slog through exhaustion? Or with finding friendships and relationships? Maybe you have such high anxiety that the idea of talking to anyone is overwhelming? If you have ADHD you might not be able to keep up with chores at home. If you have Autism maybe you are consumed by making sure everything is ‘just so’. And if you have both (AuDHD) you might just feel paralyzed. Having a diagnosis or suspecting you are neurodivergent can be helpful, but may also raise so many questions you’re not sure where to start.

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.
