You don’t have to live your life on high alert.
Does your mind constantly replay "what-if" scenarios? Do you find yourself trapped in loops of worry, experiencing sudden waves of panic, or feeling like your confidence is slowly fracturing under the weight of self-doubt?
Anxiety can be exhausting. It affects your sleep, your energy, and how you show up in your relationships. Often, these struggles aren't random—they are deeply rooted in past stressors, difficult family dynamics, or a history of trauma.
Whether you are an older teen navigating the pressures of a changing world, an adult trying to keep your head above water, or a couple whose communication is breaking down due to anxiety and stress, you are not alone, and you don’t have to carry this weight by yourself.
A Safe Space to Heal and Grow
My approach to anxiety therapy is rooted in a Humanistic framework. This means I prioritize creating a warm, empathic, safe, and entirely non-judgmental environment where you can speak openly. I view you as the expert on your own life and goals; my job is to walk alongside you with the tools to help you get there.
Because anxiety manifests differently in everyone, your treatment will be tailored specifically to your needs and comfort levels. We will blend your unique insights with powerful, evidence-based practices

How Anxiety Shows Up
In Your Body
Anxiety isn’t just a mental loop; it lives deeply inside your physical nervous system. It’s the sudden, unexplained racing of your heart, a heavy tightness in your chest, or a shallow breath you can’t quite catch. You might notice your muscles are constantly tense, your shoulders are locked up, or your stomach is frequently tied in knots. It can leave you feeling restless, perpetually exhausted, or physically exhausted from being on high alert all day.
In Your Quiet Moments
When the world finally slows down and you try to rest, anxiety often gets louder. In the quiet hours of the night or the spaces between tasks, your mind shifts into overdrive—replaying past conversations, predicting "what-if" scenarios, and spinning loops of worry about the future. It’s that persistent inner critic whispering that you aren’t doing enough, or a lingering sense of dread that robs you of your peace and prevents you from truly relaxing or getting restful sleep.
In Your Daily Life
On the surface, you might be keeping it all together, but beneath it all, anxiety shapes your daily choices. It shows up as procrastination or feeling completely overwhelmed by simple routines. It impacts your confidence, making you second-guess your decisions at work or school. In your relationships, it can manifest as a fear of conflict, a constant need for reassurance, or a tendency to quietly withdraw from the people you love because you simply don’t have the emotional energy to engage.

My Approach with Anxiety
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Anxiety often runs on autopilot, a loop of "what-if" thinking and catastrophizing that feels automatic rather than chosen. CBT gives us a way to slow that loop down and examine it. We identify the specific thought patterns fueling your anxiety, whether it's all-or-nothing thinking, overestimating danger, or a habit of assuming the worst, and practice replacing them with more accurate, grounded responses. Over time, this reduces both the frequency and intensity of anxious spirals, giving you back a sense of control over your own mind.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Anxiety isn't always about the present moment, often it's the nervous system reacting to old stress or unresolved experiences as if they're still happening now. EMDR helps the brain finish processing those experiences so they stop triggering present-day panic, racing thoughts, or a body that won't relax. For clients whose anxiety feels disproportionate to their current circumstances, this approach can get at the root cause rather than just managing symptoms.
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
Anxiety can make even small decisions feel overwhelming, and change often brings its own anxious resistance. I use Motivational Interviewing to help you connect with what you actually want for your life, rather than what anxiety is telling you to fear or avoid. This collaborative approach keeps you in the driver's seat, building the confidence to make choices based on your values instead of your worry.
