Hi, My name is Andrea David, and I am a licensed therapist with over 25 years of experience. always wanted to help people be the best version of themselves, but as time and life changed I learned to adapt and make changes as I went a long and my passion for helping others has stayed the same. I eventually found a way with education and experience to grow and broaden my horizons and help people feel more in control of their life. This is the only thing I could ever imagine doing because it is not just a career but my love for others trickles into all areas of my life and a therapist is who I am at my core.

Many of my clients come to their first appointment wanting to make changes in their lives and relationships but are waking up every day with same unhealthy patterns that keep them stuck. Difficulty regulating their emotions - they are angry, irritable, and lashing out. People-pleasing. Stuffing and numbing their feelings. A lifetime of trying to get difficult people to be good to them. Feeling sad, panicky and out of control. Find their identity in others and feel as if they have lost themselves. Worries and negative looping thoughts such as "I am a bad person; The world feels unsafe; It's all my fault."

We try to understand people on an individual level & adapt our skills to meet their needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, & nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy should not be simply "learning coping skills", to deal with negative feelings, it should involve working to root of the problem to facilitate long-lasting change.

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.
