Has anxiety made your life unmanageable?

Hopefully you’re not overcome with “what if” thoughts, especially at night while you’re trying to sleep. Odds are, if you’re reading this page, then you know what I’m talking about. Racing thoughts and feeling on edge, nervous, and sweaty … it’s no way to live. Anxiety can show up wearing many different hats. If something is bothering you, do you attempt to problem solve by worrying nonstop about it? Do you often feel uncomfortable at get-togethers because you’re afraid you’ll look or say something dumb? Do you feel overwhelmed by uncertainty? Or yet, do you become anxious in your relationship due to feelings of codependency, jealousy, or inadequacy?

Whatever life is bringing your way, anxiety is throwing a wrench in it because:

  • You can’t shut your mind off when you should be sleeping

  • You have a hard time making decisions

  • You feel self-conscious and pull away or say things you may regret

  • You feel needy, clingy, or even addicted to another person

Therapy for anxiety can help.

It may feel impossible now, but you can get past this. You can take control. You can feel “normal” again. And I can help you get there.

Therapy for anxiety helps you do 3 things:

  • Learn about anxiety, such as why we use worry to help solve our problems

  • Learn how to cope with uncomfortable feelings and thoughts

  • Learn how to meet your needs and provide yourself with reassurance

I’ll help you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances.

My approach to therapy for anxiety comes from a place of discovery and strength: believing that the power you have been searching for has been within you all along.

It’s time to stop the chronic worry.

i can help you get there.

FAQS

Common questions about therapy for anxiety

  • Sessions are usually structured with a clear agenda that we both create. Early on, I will provide you with foundational knowledge about anxiety, because knowledge is key to treatment. You will also have a clear understanding of why you are using a particular skill. I want you to walk away an expert about anxiety and how to treat it! We will address feelings, thoughts, and behaviors – some of which may be triggered from decades-old beliefs which are causing you to cope in ways you’ve outgrown. I’m always on the lookout for that kind of stuff. We may do exercises in session, and you’ll definitely want to try out the new skills between sessions so we can come back and talk about your experience.

  • You may be surprised to learn that therapy for many anxiety disorders is a relatively short process. Everyone’s situation is unique, so we will discuss recommendations and create a treatment plan together. Progress greatly depends on how regularly you attend sessions and implement the changes you work on.

  • While therapists can never guarantee results, chances are that if you show up and do the work, you’ll find the relief you are longing for. My favorite part of being a therapist is hearing others just like you say “It worked!!!”
