I have over 15 years experience treating a multitude of diagnoses and specialize in treating anxiety, life stressors, relationship issues, and trauma.
Life can be hard, messy, and complicated but can also be filled with joy, peace, and true connection with others. We all go through struggles and challenges in our lives and sometimes we just need someone to walk alongside us during the journey. I enjoy working with individuals to elicit the change necessary to heal, grow, and live more fulfilled lives. I would be honored to walk alongside and be that person for you.

Most of my counseling experience is with concerns related to anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationships, and self-exploration.
I enjoy working with individuals from a variety of diverse backgrounds, cultures, and orientations. We’re all on a journey and at times need someone to walk with us as we navigate new or rough terrain as we seek connection and learn to craft a life we want. Every journey towards healing looks different-what helps one person doesn't necessarily help another. We are all a sum of everything that has happened to us and more. My hope is to provide therapeutic support that considers all aspects of a person when considering what might be helpful in moving forward, whatever that may look like.

Many of my patients seek my help for non-sexual issues such as depression, grief, anxiety, trauma recovery, relationship dissatisfaction, job-related stress, and other life changing events as well.
Are sexual issues causing distress in your life? As one of just a few sex therapists certified by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT) in Indiana, I have trained extensively in issues related to sexuality. Common problems include those related to sexual functioning (desire, arousal, orgasm), compulsive sexual behavior, intimacy concerns, sexual orientation struggles, and transgender issues. My training is as a Clinical Psychologist first, with specializations in areas of sexual and behavioral health. Preemptive therapy, to explore interpersonal and interpersonal issues before they become too problematic, is also a service I offer.

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.
