Hi, I am so glad you are here! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Rhode Island. Providing a safe space for you is a valuable part of the work I do with helping individuals in counseling express themselves. You may have been told many things about therapy and you will find that there is no right time to start therapy and no one-way therapy looks. It is a place created to come as you are and your mental health is a significant part of your overall well-being. My experience working with individuals across the lifespan of development has given me understanding, connection building, and a strengths-based approach to treatment.

My passion is in helping individual's reach their highest potential through living a healthy lifestyle. I believe that therapy is not only beneficial for self health but it also creates this foundation that brings healing to the mind, body and soul. My past experience as a behavioral specialist at an elementary school for several years prior to pursuing a degree as a marriage and family therapist all taught me how to utilize the best evidence based practices in real life settings. As a mom and wife I understand the challenges that families endure and I can help with couples counseling, families, individual and group sessions.

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.
