About My Clients

Have you been trying to find your way out of this anxiety stuff by yourself but not finding the relief you need? Maybe you've tried self-help books, Googling, or maybe you've even tried therapy before but it felt more like an interrogation than learning how to get a handle on your anxiety so now you just feel overwhelmed and alone. Well, I see you. And I get you because I've BEEN you and I know how treatable anxiety is when we focus on the right things and when you have the right support.

My Background and Approach

If you’re looking for a mental health professional who will not only provide tools and information you need to thrive, but someone to genuinely hear you, you’re in the right place. Helping you overcome anxiety and improve your relationship with yourself and others is the most important thing to me as a therapist and the motivator behind what I do. Working with teens and families for over 10 years has given me a lot of practice establishing a connection that is necessary for the work that we will do together. Through CBT and ERP, my clients learn about the nature of anxiety, their thought patterns, and gain the tools they need to create a full life. Depending on what each clients needs, my approach is tailored specifically to them and I pull from other theories like Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Person-Centered as well.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

A lot of people believe that therapy cannot help them with their social anxiety. They believe it is something you can only achieve by yourself. And while the work has to be done by the client, choosing to deal with anxiety without the support of a mental health professional is like trying to get somewhere you’ve never been without a map. You might be able to do it by just following the signs and following where other people are headed but there’s a high possibility of getting lost and adding time onto your journey or never getting there at all. A map tells you what steps to take and gives you confidence that you’re on the right road and the moves you’re making will lead to your desired destination. Using CBT and ERP, I can help you understand anxiety and find your way through it.
