Through this process, we’ll spend quality time uncovering patterns of distress and anxiety and discovering new ways to thrive through and beyond the challenges you encounter.
You’ve been feeling out of sorts lately, and something is telling you, “Today is the day to talk with someone.” Feelings of anxiety, wearisomeness, confusion, and not knowing what to do seem to overwhelm you. Waves of worry, unsurety, uncertainty. insecurity, fear, and even discontent have crept in. You are burdened, even despaired. At times you feel hopeless, helpless, powerless, continuously hearing the lie that whispers, “There’s no hope!” If only you could see a glimmer of light in the distance, you could rise above these feelings and challenges with renewed strength, a sense of clarity, balance, and optimism.

Being a parent can be stressful, as you often find yourself wondering what you can do to help your child feel better, find emotional balance, increase their confidence and enhance their potential. It can be daunting to reach out to a therapist because you want to make sure that you find someone who deeply cares and connects with your child and can work with you, guiding and supporting your parenting journey. Imagine what it would feel like not to constantly worry about your child because you know that they feel better about themselves, can better regulate their feelings and behaviors, and are more in control of their life.

I use NLP, Genograms, Family constellations and Brain Spotting to release, anxiety, grief, trauma and depression.
Anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, and addiction hold profound lessons and opportunities for growth. Too often, we push away our deepest hurts, hoping symptoms will simply vanish. This can lead us to seek refuge in unhealthy coping mechanisms like substance use or isolation. However, awareness of our struggles marks the beginning of a transformative healing journey. By embracing the wisdom within us and connecting to something greater, we can learn to flow with life’s challenges. This journey invites healing and growth, allowing life to emerge from chaos to connection and acceptance.

Research shows that people would rather experience physical pain than emotional pain. These tough times can make us feel hopeless, vulnerable, and powerless. As we know, we cannot avoid life’s hurts that leave us with pain, guilt, anger, and shame; however, we can learn from these emotions. Emotions influence our thinking processes, impacting how we see the world. Therapy can help clear these barriers of uncertainty, which can prevent us from achieving our personal goals, getting that promotion, or achieving a healthy relationship.

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.
