Although anxiety is a natural part of life, it can escalate and begin to interfere with functioning.

I also work with clients to establish healthy stress management strategies, through exercise, social support, self-care, assertiveness, healthy expression of feelings, and appropriate life balance, so that clients have an overall sense of calm and well-being.
