I bring over 13 years of experience in higher levels of mental health care and transitioned to an outpatient clinical setting two years ago. I recognize that seeking support can be a challenging first step. Inspired by researcher and storyteller Brene Brown’s insight, “Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just show up,” I'm committed to creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel validated in their thoughts and emotions.

Marital distress is one of the most common and disturbing problems in our society. I am a licensed professional counselor working primarily with couples struggling with infidelity, emotional/cyber affairs and no sex/low sex relationships. Many are considering separation or divorce. These are not problems that suddenly, unexplainably appeared. Most of these couples can reflect back over 5 or 10 years on how their relationship had slowly deteriorated from a lack of communication over important issues such as intimacy, finances or parenting. Often unresolved issues of substance abuse or mental illness have lead to profound disappointment and distress.

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.
