Have You Been Struggling With Excessive Worry Or Stress?

Do you find yourself constantly analyzing every thought, word, or action? Are you often consumed by catastrophic fears and worries? You may also be struggling with persistent emotions like:

Panic or constant alertness
Fatigue, exhaustion, or lack of energy
Intense fears of failure or abandonment
Low self-esteem or feelings of worthlessness

If these feelings are affecting your ability to function, therapy can help you gain control and restore balance in your life.

Do you find yourself avoiding conflict and confrontation, making it difficult to assert yourself in relationships? Or perhaps you go out of your way to steer clear of certain people, places, or situations that trigger your anxiety, only to find that this avoidance deepens your fear and limits your ability to live fully and pursue what truly matters to you? Therapy can help you address these patterns and regain control over your life.

When Stress And Worry Are Left Unaddressed, They Can Significantly Impact Your Life

If you're struggling to manage everyday tasks, such as eating regularly, sleeping well, or meeting your responsibilities at work or home, your stress levels may continue to rise, exacerbating the situation.

You may also be experiencing physical symptoms, such as headaches, digestive issues, stomach pains, or even panic attacks. In some cases, the anxiety about your anxiety can create an ongoing cycle of fear, making it even harder to break free.

The good news is that anxiety disorders can be effectively managed with therapy and the right treatment. I specialize in helping you regain control, trust your ability to cope, and develop a lasting sense of peace and stability.

Stress And Anxiety Are Common Experiences That Everyone Faces At Some Point In Their Lives

Although anxiety is highly treatable, it remains one of the most prevalent mental health conditions, impacting millions of people globally each day. While feelings of stress and nervousness are natural responses to certain situations, it can often be challenging to distinguish between healthy and unhealthy anxiety.

When anxiety becomes persistent and overwhelming, it can disrupt nearly every area of a person's life, affecting their well-being and daily functioning. According to the CDC, approximately one in eight adults in the United States experience regular feelings of worry, nervousness, and anxiety, underscoring the widespread nature of this issue.

Many Individuals Are Reluctant To Seek Treatment For Anxiety

Society often contributes to the widespread feelings of stress and anxiety, while simultaneously discouraging people from seeking help. Alongside major global issues like political instability and climate change, many individuals lack the support they need from family or community when considering therapy.

Anxiety therapy can offer the critical support needed to manage and reduce overwhelming feelings. I understand the challenges you're facing, and I am committed to providing the care you deserve. With my guidance, you can start addressing and overcoming anxiety, empowering you to regain control of your life.

Anxiety Therapy Can Be the Key To Regaining Control and Living A More Peaceful, Fulfilling Life

When stress and panic dominate your life, anxiety can start to feel like your constant companion. The cycle of worrying about anxiety, along with triggers that amplify it, can leave you feeling stuck and overwhelmed. However, with the support of a compassionate anxiety therapist, you can break free from this cycle and regain your independence, ultimately feeling empowered and at peace again.

I specialize in helping clients navigate the complexities of anxiety. I provide both immediate relief and long-term strategies for healing, helping you regain control and live a more balanced, fulfilling life.

What You Can Expect From Anxiety Therapy Sessions

Before you begin your online anxiety therapy, I offer a complimentary twenty minute phone consultation. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is key to success, and finding the right match can make all the difference in your progress. During this call, I will learn about your history, symptoms, and goals, which will allow me to tailor a treatment plan designed specifically for you.

In your therapy sessions, we will work together to explore the root causes of your anxiety and equip you with effective tools to manage your symptoms. We will focus on building your confidence so you can face anxiety-provoking situations with greater ease. Over time, as you develop the skills to handle anxiety, you’ll find yourself more empowered to engage in your daily life and pursue the things that matter most to you.

Effective Treatment Strategies That Deliver Real Results

I blend cognitive and somatic treatment techniques to help clients effectively manage the negative thoughts and physical symptoms associated with anxiety. I employ a comprehensive, multi-modal approach, incorporating a variety of therapeutic strategies:

Psychodynamic Therapy (PDT) – PDT delves into your subconscious, uncovering the underlying thoughts and beliefs that fuel your anxiety.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – CBT focuses on recognizing and challenging the thought patterns, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to and maintain anxiety.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) – DBT helps you develop skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, empowering you to better manage your anxiety.

Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP) – ERP systematically reduces the negative emotional responses triggered by anxiety through controlled exposure exercises.

Somatic Therapy (SE) – This body-focused therapy addresses the physical
aspects of anxiety, using mind-body techniques to alleviate distressing physical
symptoms.

In the short term, I will teach you how to integrate these cognitive and somatic strategies so you can use them together. This approach allows you to self-regulate during moments of anxiety, effectively addressing both mental and physical symptoms from multiple angles.

Our long-term work will help you uncover how past experiences and relationships have shaped your emotional world. Together, we’ll explore the root causes of your fears and work to create and strengthen more empowering belief systems, ultimately leading to a more authentic, fulfilling life and a stronger connection with yourself.

I've tried therapy before but still struggle with anxiety. What makes this approach different?

Many factors influence the success of therapy, with the right therapist and therapeutic approach being crucial. My anxiety treatment focuses on transforming how you relate to your anxiety. Instead of fearing it, I will help you build confidence in your ability to manage anxiety effectively when it occurs, empowering you to face it with a stronger sense of control.

Some techniques, such as meditation or thought worksheets, just don't connect with me.

Every individual is unique, and your therapy should reflect that. I will take the time to understand what approaches have worked - or not worked - for you in the past. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan that focuses on the most effective skills to help you manage anxiety and achieve lasting results.

Committing to weekly therapy can feel daunting. Is it necessary to attend sessions every week?

While therapy can be challenging at times, it’s a valuable investment in your long-term mental health. To experience the full benefits, it's essential to commit to regular sessions with a mindset open to learning and self-exploration. With my guidance, you’ll receive the support needed to navigate this important journey. Consistency in therapy is key to maximizing the positive outcomes and ensuring lasting results for your well-being. However, if you're unable to attend weekly sessions, I can accommodate more infrequent appointments.
