My name is Collette, and I help anxious high achievers channel their natural problem solving skills and strengths so that you can make more confident decisions, stop feeling bad for putting you first and start spending more time on the things that matter most to you.
Does the thought of relaxing stress you out and make you feel guilty for wanting to do so? Do you spend your free time thinking about how you need to get more done? You know you should have said no to your boss’s request, but the thought of letting them down was enough to make you take on more than you should. You’re missing out on time with friends and your family rarely sees you. I know asking for help can feel like you’ve “failed” at life, but you realize nothing is working and it’s time to see some change.

Life can be difficult. There’s no denying this. And, at times, life can seem even more difficult. Have you been feeling sad, stressed, worried, confused, frustrated, angry, or at a bit of a loss? Perhaps you’ve experienced, or are facing, a transition in life (e.g., a break-up, divorce, loss of a loved one, medical challenge, retirement, engagement, marriage, etc.) that is leaving you feeling any number of ways. Or maybe you're feeling a certain way and don't know why. If so, you're likely looking to find some peace, clarity, understanding, and support so you can live a happier, healthier, and more authentic life.

My areas of focus include working with the college age population, adjustments and life transitions, disabilities, chronic medical conditions, and anxiety and/or depression.

I bring a wide variety of experiences which have greatly influenced my style and approach, including holding a NYS School Counseling Certification and working as a mental health counselor on a college campus. I often utilize a holistic, client-centered, strengths-based approach and view the process of therapy as a collaboration between client and therapist.

Anxiety, depression, guilt, childhood trauma, unresolved experiences of loss, abandonment, or betrayal, are only a few possible explanations for what may stand in your way of achieving a sense of self-fulfillment, satisfying relationships, and a sense of security. Through psychotherapy, you can gain a better understanding of the underlying issues which compromise your ability to get what you need and optimally use your potential. These issues can be effectively worked through to ease their grip over your emotional well being and enable you to gain better control over your life by making better choices.

It’s time consuming to sort through profiles; and for that I am so glad you’ve found your way here. I can be there to support you where you’re at right now. Therapy can feel overwhelming; maybe you've asked- where do I start? That is super common! Therapy is more than talking; it’s a safe, healing space filled with both laughter and tears. It’s all welcome and all part of the process. I enjoy working with individuals who may be navigating difficult relationships—whether that be family, romantic or something else! Navigating conflict or life transitions can be tough on our own; at times we just need a little extra support.

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.
