Anxiety
Working on your anxiety can be uncomfortable- that's part of the process I work with my clients to overcome: avoidance of anxiety itself. It's a vicious cycle of getting anxious, trying to avoid the trigger or the anxiety itself, the anxiety building up, and then more anxiety spilling out. I don't have the magic cure, but I can help you cope and feel more empowered to handle and manage your anxiety in ways that can be easily incorporated into your daily life!
Depression
Depression can be caused or maintained by a variety of factors- all of which we will explore, identify, and try to impact in order to reduce your symptoms and improve your functioning. I may suggest seeing your Dr for some labs if you haven't had any recently since so many people are low in Vit D and/or iron, which can look a lot like depression or can make depression worse. Our thoughts are at the crux of the depression treatment process, as are emotions; I focus heavily on both.
