Feeling a certain level of anxiety over big stressors or certain life events is totally normal. However, if you find that your fear or worry does not go away and, in fact, gets worse over time, you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. Mild anxiety is vague and unsettling and often passes quickly, while severe anxiety can seriously affect your day-to-day life. If you are finding your anxiety unmanageable, can’t identify the cause of your anxious feelings or if you are suffering from physical symptoms (such as heart palpations, fatigue, sweaty hands, upset stomach, or insomnia), it may be time to get help. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s anxiety specialists today.

Do you have trouble understanding what you’re feeling, or why you’re feeling it? Maybe you often ask “does that make sense?”, unsure whether your thoughts are coming across how you want them to. Or you find that you're really hard on yourself, with a running narrative of “I’m the worst!”. Perhaps you’re scared to get things wrong, and feel unable to trust yourself to know what you want, let alone how to get there. If you relate to this and want to feel less anxious and more at ease, I can help!

I work with adults and couples on all kinds of issues and frequently treat issues related to attachment, identity, and trauma (ie intergenerational trauma, racial trauma, ptsd, etc). I often work with clients who have symptoms of ADHD, anxiety, depression, or high stress. I enjoy working with fellow members of the queer community and have a passion for providing an affirming, inclusive space for historically marginalized groups including, but not limited to BIPOC, interracial couples, and women.

Do you often feel overwhelmed and burnt out, unable to say "no" to others? Do you constantly go out of your way for everyone else, hoping to receive the same in return? Maybe you're struggling to understand who you are or dealing with feelings of not being good enough. I help people like you navigate parenting, build self-confidence, challenge anxious thoughts, and establish healthy boundaries. Prioritizing yourself may feel selfish, but you deserve the same love you give others.

I work primarily with couples in varying levels of distress. If you have experienced infidelity, are in a relational crisis, struggle with a loss of connection, are enduring patterns of arguing which have exhausted you, or just feel hopeless in your relationship then I encourage you to reach out for help. Some areas for us to potentially work together on may include communication issues, a loss of intimacy, affairs, attachment struggles, trust, parenting, desire discrepancy, sex, and sexuality.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, struggling to focus, frequently prioritizing others over yourself, lacking confidence, or often comparing yourself to others? These issues can significantly affect your self-esteem and self-worth, potentially leading to heightened anxiety or depression. I specialize in helping individuals who are dealing with perfectionism and related challenges.

I have been working with trauma for many years using EMDR, and have found that trauma often impacts survivors in lasting ways including addiction, trouble with intimate relationships, and sexuality. I have worked with addictions my entire career and have become more proficient in my ability to treat sexual issues as well as sexual compulsions and addictions. For sex therapy clients, I welcome both individuals and couples for sessions.
Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
