Anxiety

Anxiety can feel like a lot to handle, but I truly believe understanding it is the key to easing it. My approach focuses on the ‘felt sense’—those physical sensations and emotions we feel when anxiety shows up. By tuning into these feelings, we can start to make sense of what’s going on in our bodies and minds, and get a clearer picture of what anxiety is trying to tell us. With this awareness, we can calm the nervous system and learn to respond with more ease and clarity.

Anxiety is the most common behavioral health condition and can be one of the most disabling. Thankfully, there’s no need to feel trapped in avoidance, fear, and resentment. I treat most forms of anxious thoughts and feelings, including diagnoses of PTSD and OCD, and I’m trained in multiple research-informed treatments. That includes Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Inference-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (ICBT).

I help treat anxiety through techniques like EMDR, CBT, and Mindfulness. I can help you reframe negative thought patterns, reduce emotional reactivity, and build healthier coping mechanisms, guiding you towards balance and confidence.

Anxiety is marked by excessive worrying, feeling on edge and difficulty concentrating. It makes is hard to enjoy every day life when worry is always on your mind. We treat anxiety in part by breaking down what our mind is telling us about the world and our feelings of being on constant alert. As we challenge the thoughts that keep us on edge, our anxiety is decreased and can be replaced by a happier state of being.

I specialize in helping individuals understand and manage anxiety by addressing its underlying causes, whether rooted in past trauma, self-doubt, or overwhelming stress. Through evidence-based techniques, I guide clients in calming their nervous system, reframing anxious thoughts, and building emotional resilience. My approach fosters self-awareness and empowerment, helping clients break free from anxiety’s grip and cultivate a greater sense of peace, confidence, and control in their lives.

Racing pulse? Sweaty palms? Tight chest? Shortness of breath? Difficulty thinking clearly? Feeling “anxiety”? These are some of the most common signs of anxiety, a normal human emotional and physical state that serves to signal us that something important is going on. A little anxiety keeps us alert, such as when we are about to cross the street and our anxiety signals us to be cautious and check for traffic before stepping off the curb. A lot of anxiety can distract us, make us physically uncomfortable, steal our sleep, lead us to avoid important activities in life, and even increase our risk for stroke, heart attack, and other serious illness. I help clients decrease their suffering from excessive anxiety by working on several fronts: reducing uncomfortable symptoms by increasing coping and relaxation skills; examining and changing anxiety-provoking ways of thinking; and getting to the root causes of the anxiety in order to minimize recurrences and develop mastery over excessive anxiety.

You want to feel whole and fulfilled, but stress, anxiety, or other challenges get in the way. Traditional psychiatry often stops at medication, but true healing requires more. We offer expert medication management when needed—but go beyond prescriptions. We integrate nutrition, supplements, lifestyle shifts, and sound healing—small yet powerful changes that restore well-being. You already have the power to heal. We help you unlock it. Your transformation starts here.

I utilize CBT techniques to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts that contribute to anxiety, promoting healthier thinking patterns. Also, Teaching mindfulness and relaxation techniques enables clients to stay grounded, reducing anxiety symptoms and enhancing emotional regulation.

I have completed extensive training in somatic therapies for anxiety, mindfulness interventions, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). In early therapy sessions I work collaboratively with you to tailor treatment to your unique needs. An emphasis is always placed on making sure that patients feel safe and heard in the therapeutic relationship. My favorite therapy expression is, “What’s Shareable Is Bearable.” I place a premium on making sure you feel comf

Anxiety can be an unwelcome guest who shows up and takes over our lives. I am here to support you through learning what can help you feel more like yourself. That might include becoming familiar with your thought patterns and which ones are serving you well or not, or tuning into your body to help it calm and regulate. I want to help you find a place of safety within yourself that allows you to take a deep breath and remember your gratitude for this world.

Anxiety is not always a useless emotion. Often it’s our limbic system trying to tell us something. When your anxiety becomes out of control or debilitating, it’s time to talk to someone. Healing anxiety requires a combination of treatment strategies that heal both the mind and the body. Learn and explore which strategies are right for you.

You can't stop thinking about the future. It's hard to stay in the present. It affects your eating, your sleeping, your work, your relationships, and everything else. The good news is I've got a TON of coping skills for you to try, from breathing to journaling to throwing ice cube at the side of an empty parking garage. While we try different skills week-to-week, I'll also help you look into where the anxiety truly comes from, and if there's a way to change your expectations for yourself.

I specialize in evidence-based approaches to anxiety treatment, drawing from my extensive training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also integrate nature-based interventions to create comprehensive treatment plans tailored to each client's needs.

In my approach to anxiety therapy, I aim to provide a supportive space for clients to explore their feelings and experiences. I utilize evidence-based techniques to help individuals understand the root causes of their anxiety, develop effective coping strategies, and learn to manage their symptoms. By incorporating mindfulness, emotion regulation skills, and cognitive-behavioral methods, we work together to build resilience and empower clients to navigate life’s challenges with greater confidenc

I have extensive experience assisting clients with anxiety. My therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and somatic therapy. This comprehensive method addresses both the cognitive aspects of anxiety and the mind-body connection, fostering healing and resilience tailored to each client's unique needs.

I use CBT to help people better understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Through this modality we are able to identify and combat cognitive distortions, unwanted intrusive thoughts and overthinking among other typical anxiety symptoms to make changes to how our brains think providing greater control over our thoughts and anxiety in general.
