If you enjoy animals, nature or people, you already have a powerful foundation to create stability and momentum in your life. What you might struggle with isn't a label. It's an experience. Start where you're at, and explore it with somebody who will start there with you. Need change or just greater balance? Want more out of life? On a journey, but somehow lost? Feeling stuck, apathetic, burnt out or anxious is not uncommon! However, the tools and how to use them are not always obvious. Animal assisted, experiential, mindfulness and nature-based therapies are most clients' favorite tools.

Whether you battle anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems or addiction, we'll work to build skills for healthy and holistic living.
I have a person-centered, relational, and eclectic style for counseling and believe building rapport and trust is the cornerstone for getting to some of the tougher issues. I try to give clients something they can take with them after a session (like a certain coping technique to practice), especially in the beginning when things can feel overwhelming. Once my clients are comfortable, I utilize tools such as practicing emotional regulation, role playing, etc. and integrating other techniques like art, ego state, EMDR-whatever the client needs most at that time.

Navigating who you are and who you want to be in a world with so many expectations can feel incredibly debilitating. Feeling misunderstood or like you don’t fit can lead to isolation and can make life transitions during adolescence and young adulthood especially challenging. It may make you feel like something is wrong with you for being different. Whether you are looking to heal from a traumatic event, learn skills to cope with anxiety, are wanting a safe space to explore identity-related issues, I believe that every individual has the capacity to heal. You deserve to live a fulfilling life, whatever that means for you.

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.
