With clients who are experiencing anxiety and stress, my goal is for them to feel understood as a whole. This includes understanding their anxiety and stress, but I want them to experience being known for all of who they are, not just their struggles. In order to experience growth and improvement in this area, I work with clients to process and understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Once we have a good understanding of this, I work with my client to find ways to create the change they need and are hoping for.

Everyone feels anxiety at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although anxiety can feel debilitating, it is treatable.

Anxiety can be paralyzing and our thoughts and fears can feel like they are running the show, but it doesn't have to be that way. With coping skills and a sense of security, managing anxious thoughts is possible. With techniques such as thought stopping and reframing, we can begin to argue and win the battle against anxiety. With support and a deeper understanding anxiety can be successfully managed.

We all have some level of stress & anxiety that is often experienced as fear & worry. For some, however, the anxiety can become overwhelming. This may involve a specific stressor or an increase in life stressors, a phobia, generalized anxiety or even panic symptoms. It is important to identify what might be triggering the anxiety as well as any predisposing causes. I work with individuals to explore the roots of negative thoughts & beliefs & then begin the process of altering them. I also assist in sorting through ineffective coping strategies & replacing them with new & more helpful strategies. This process helps provide relief by addressing both the anxiety symptoms & the underlying cause.

When I meet with clients who are experiencing issues pertaining to anxiety and stress, I, firstly, create a space where they feel understood, empathized with, and safe. I then will help clients to understand the relationship between their thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. Then we will work to tackle each of those three areas in order to create the change that they need and/or are hoping for.

Anxiety in children, teenagers, and young adults is on the rise—social anxiety, generalized anxiety, panic disorder, separation anxiety, OCD.... I see kids in middle school who already worry about getting into a good college, and high school teens ruminating about something they said at the lunch table that they're worried will cost them socially. Let me help your child or teen sort out the differences sources of anxiety in his/her life and find ways to reduce them or reduce the level of anxiety they bring out. And, since there are natural sources of anxiety in our lives that cannot be eliminated, I find it important to teach kids how to better manage the anxiety that remains.

No matter how long you have been suffering from anxiety - even panic attacks - you can free yourself - mind, body and spirit. When you learn to identify the thought patterns that create anxiety and replace them with more positive thinking, you enjoy greater peace of mind. When you learn to notice tightness as it occurs in your body and release that tension, you become more relaxed. When you connect with the unconditional love and healing power of your Divine Nature you transform old patterns and become the conscious creator of your experience.

We experience anxiety in many ways: excessive worry about future events, catastrophic thoughts, insomnia, restlessness, pounding heart, sweating, avoidance of specific things. While we cannot avoid stress, our ways of coping with stressful situations affect our mental, physical and spiritual health. In a safe, empathetic environment, I help clients understand how thoughts, behaviors, environmental changes/life situations, moods and physical reactions affect anxiety level. Together, we develop effective coping strategies to reduce anxiety, regain a sense of empowerment and a return to the calm and balanced life we deserve.
