My approach to anxiety and stress counseling focuses on providing a safe and empathetic environment where clients can explore their experiences and identify underlying patterns. I utilize a blend of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques to help clients gain practical tools for managing anxious thoughts and overwhelming stress. By fostering self-awareness and developing effective coping strategies, clients learn to respond to challenges with resilience and calm. My goal is to empower clients to build confidence, improve daily functioning, and enhance overall well-being through personalized and evidence-based treatment.

Anxiety can go by many names - fear, shyness, worry, etc. It can be a functional part of life when it is managed, but when it is not, it can be detrimental to your sense of security.

Oftentimes and over time, it is a surprise to see how much you have overcome.
