Anxiety Therapists in Orion, MI
We will tackle anxiety, depression, grief, mood changes, anger, boundaries & more together.
Did you know most therapists have their own therapist? This is important to know because I want to help destigmatize receiving mental health treatment. What may look like today's standards as a “perfect” life from the outside, could actually have imperfections of their own. Life's daily stressors are enough to handle on your own, now add in grief, trauma, life changing events, anxiety, depression, & more.

Challenges that we can address together include symptoms related to anxiety, depression, grief, stress, unhealthy or abusive relationships, and various forms of trauma.
Currently accepting new telehealth clients! I first learned that I wanted to become a therapist after receiving therapy for myself in order to process a history of traumatic experiences and grief. I share this confidently, because no one should feel alone or ashamed to seek support. I truly love the work that I do and I believe in making therapy a comforting, safe, and validating place for my clients. We will especially be a great fit for therapy if you are looking to heal your sense of safety, trust, control, and self-esteem!

I take an empathetic, person-centered approach that includes reducing stress and anxiety through mindfulness in order to be emotionally present with themselves and others.
Healing begins to take place when we have a space to truly feel heard, understood, and seen. I seek to create this space where you feel safe to be you. Healing is a not a linear, one-size-fits-all experience, and I welcome multiple perspectives. I work with individuals and couples on a variety of topics including relationship difficulties, trauma, overwhelming thoughts & emotions, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I enjoy being emotionally present and journeying with people to discover their unique way to healing their lives and living a more joyful life.

Therapy is hard and it sometimes sucks. I will never make promises like you can "be fixed" or you'll "never have to deal with this again". Those are bold face lies. We've been through so much and these inner and outer demons are figuring their way out of those boxes we put them in. Sometimes the demons gotta come out and we have to dispose of them properly. That "properly" is going to look different for everyone, but We can help you feel better. We can help you manage those moods, emotions and even the outbursts. You have to be ready for the work. When you're ready, come see me and we'll start that journey together.

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.
