Anxiety Therapists in Monroe, NY
I specialize in helping those with depression, anxiety, mood issues, stress, low self esteem, and negative thinking.
Asking for help is hard. It’s so natural for us as humans to suffer in silence, to hide ourselves because of the shame that we feel about saying, “Hey, I’m struggling.” My goal is to help you have the hard conversations. To listen to how you’re feeling, and to help you get what you need. You don’t have to do it alone. I aim to offer support to anyone who is struggling with their mental health by practicing a person-centered approach and utilizing my experience with a variety of approaches, including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, positive psychology, mindfulness and coping skills development.

My extensive experience working with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, trauma, and with the LGBTQ+ community help me to create a safe and compassionate environment, while challenging you to confront and overcome your obstacles.
People decide to begin therapy for a variety of reasons. Many have had painful or traumatic experiences that they are unable to move past. Some feel stuck in unhelpful thought patterns or behaviors, or struggle to find fulfillment in relationships or at work. Others may feel burdened with excessive worry, or with feelings of low self worth and inadequacy. I believe that recovery involves healing of the mind and body, and I am trained in several modalities, including CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), eating disorder treatment, and suicide prevention.

I specialized in anxiety, panic, depression, school phobia, bereavement, trauma, and eating disorders.
My biggest takeaway throughout my clinical career is understanding the perplexity of mental health and how all too often, people can be misunderstood when we don’t take the time to listen. I am a strong believer in meeting the client where they are and not forcing the therapeutic process. My engagement skills revolve around maintaining flexibility and no judgement with whomever is in the room with me. It is vital to understand that our challenges don’t define us and we must value every person as an individual, not by their diagnosis, disability or trauma history.

Did you know the benefits of being in nature on stress, anxiety and depression? If applicable to your treatment goals, we now have the ability to have sessions outdoors, have it be sitting in the park, a stroll outdoors or a hike in the beautiful Hudson Valley.
Are you willing to invest time into your personal growth to improve your quality of life? Are you struggling with "the hamster on the wheel," and other symptoms of anxiety and depression? I believe we all need someone outside of our personal lives to provide an objective and confidential ear with feedback in order to discover our own solutions that reside within ourselves.

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.
