Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stressed? Does it feel like you are more anxious than other people around you feel? Does it sometimes feel as though your anxiety is taking control of your life? If you answered yes to any of the questions above, then you understand the impact anxiety can have on one's life. It can limit activities that are important or meaningful, and make life seem smaller and more constricted. This is a common experience for those struggling with anxiety disorders.
I am a Cognitive Behavioral therapist (CBT) specializing in anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder. I have a passion for using evidence-based treatments for anxiety and OCD. I was trained at the Center for Anxiety in New York, and have extensive clinical experience using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).
In therapy, I aim to empower my clients to become their own therapists. This allows them to better understand and develop skills to handle the challenges of anxiety and overcome them long-term. My goal is to help them regain control of their lives from anxiety. To see if we are a good fit, feel free to contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.
