Life is hard and is often so very different from what we imagined it would be. We wrestle day in and day out with disappointment--the sadness that comes from recognizing the gap between reality and how we imagined our lives would look. We lament the gravity of our history and the way it has come between us and our dreams. We suffer the shame of recognizing how our choices have shaped our current situations. We study the wounds we carry as reminders of the pain that has been inflicted upon us. We mourn our weary past and fear the unknown future. After all we've been through, how can we expect to hold onto hope for a better tomorrow?

Working with clients who are open to growth, aware of their concerns, and motivated to make changes is energizing to me. A client’s openness to growth is crucial for change along with a willingness to learn and adapt. Increasing self-awareness occurs through recognition of emotional states, patterns of behavior, and their impact on your life. When others don’t understand your struggles with motivation, it can leave you feeling isolated and unsupported. This sense of being alone in your challenges can exacerbate feelings of frustration and make it harder to find the drive to overcome them.

Hi, I’m Shawna Joyce. I believe that if you listen to a person’s life story, you will find that everything they do makes sense. I knew very early that I wanted to dedicate my life to listening to peoples’ stories. I wanted to help them to make sense of their lives so that their understanding and insight could aid them in making positive changes.

Our specialty areas are depression and anxiety, relationship problems, addictions, codependency, and identity development.
We are licensed psychotherapists who have been practicing for over 30 years. Our therapeutic work is based in the idea that quality of life is largely dependent upon a feeling of belonging or a sense of connectedness to others. Sometimes though, we feel unwanted, lacking value and self-worth. We can be profoundly uncertain of our own potential or where we stand in our relationships with others. We all grapple with stress, self-doubt and the challenges of finding meaning, purpose, and solving our ultimate existential concerns - "Who am I," and "Where am I headed?"

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.
