I see clients with a broad range of issues, including anxiety, depression, Bipolar Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, panic attacks, relationship problems, and addiction.
At its heart, psychotherapy is about self-exploration and making positive change. When we feel good, just about anything is possible. But, when our thoughts and feelings are unhealthy, we become weighed down and limited in what we can achieve, whether professionally, in relationships, or in other endeavors. There is great transformative power in therapy and I am confident we can work together to improve your emotional well-being!

Waitlist for new clients
Many of my clients come to me after experiencing constant judgement and shame from their world. This becomes internalized and they often feel stuck from negative self-talk, anxiety or low self-esteem. My clients are not looking for ways to improve a symptom, but are looking to get in touch with their strengths and utilize parts of themselves that were lost. My clients are looking for a calm, nurturing environment where they can explore these issues in a playful manner.

A clinical psychologist with a Judeo-Christian spiritual base and postdoctoral training in the fields of individual and marital therapy, addiction, psychopharmacology, forensic psychology, and neuropsychology. My philosophy is this: Respect for the individual is the upper most concern because inside each of us is someone who deserves to live his or her life with dignity, joy and positive self regard. Therapy is that process of self-revelation and healing whereby each person shares of themselves in the hope that their doctor will walk with them and teach them how they might live a life of greater peace and happiness.

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.
