I utilize a client-driven approach to treatment, implementing components of CBT, DBT, and ACT to address mental health issues including: anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, grief and life transitional issues such as low motivation, goal setting, and failure to launch.
Our life experiences, genetics, relationships; past and present can cause us to struggle and feel overwhelmed.

At times, we need assistance to develop new strategies and skills to cope with ongoing mental health issues.

Whether you are a child experiencing anxiety or behavioral issues, an overwhelmed parent, or an adult experiencing depression/ anxiety; I am so looking forward to working with you, listening to your life story, and working with you towards meeting your goals!.
Saturday and Sunday VIRTUAL hours are available! It is natural to sometimes experience negative emotions associated with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. We are told by society that we are supposed to feel good all the time and that negative emotions are bad. We get caught up in a loop of negative thinking that takes away from seeing what is good in our lives. By addressing these thoughts that consume our minds and bodies, we can feel a greater sense of contentment and overall well being. You can get rid of the constraints that are holding you from reaching your goals.

CBT for handling anxiety and depression.
A lot of focus on people with anxiety and depression disorder. Mood swings or other emotional midsections that are causing some level of conflict in their family, social, educational or financial life. A majority of the people I work vary in what they know about themselves from just knowing somethings and wanting to fix it to others being forced by a friend, family member or just some stranger that passed along my name to someone. Range of symptoms from minor to discharges from high levels of care.

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.
