Is your anxiety keeping you from living your life fully, or keeping you from attaining your goals? Daily responsibilities or personal trauma can create anxiety and stress that is difficult to overcome alone. I create an environment with client's that is safe and encouraging, teaching them the skills they need to overcome their anxiety and deal more effectively with stress. I utilize CBT and hypnotherapy to get to the source of the anxiety and depression and teach new skills that alleviate anxiety and depression.

We often go through our lives in a chronic state of anxiety. Often feeling overwhelmed by not knowing what it is we're even anxious about. I help clients identify the "why" behind their anxiety. Once we identify the why and other emotions present, we can identify what we need. Once we are able to work towards meeting that need, often our anxiety subsides. Learning to relate to our anxiety with compassion, is also a critical step in lowering and regulating symptoms of anxiety.

Everyone experiences anxiety or stress in some from or another at some point in their lifetimes. But with those who suffer severely from them, anxiety and stress can make it very difficult to make it through a normal day.

In my sessions I teach easy techniques that can be used in a pinch, to more in depth anxiety and stress reductions techniques. My goal is for my clients to feel like they are not alone I their suffering and that anxiety and stress can get better with work.

We are not born with anxiety. Anxiety and stress are a learned way to cope with difficult situations, and they actually do not help the situation, they just make it worse. Medication treats the symptoms, and can be helpful, but it does not heal anything. I want to work with you to help discover what is the reason you react this way and others don't. We can explore how you learned this, and discover if there is indeed a better coping mechanism available to you.

If anxiety and stress are keeping you from enjoying life to the fullest we need to explore the source of both and process together ways in which you can reduce your stress levels or find ways to cope until your circumstances change. It is important to me that you feel that someone understands what you are going through and how difficult your anxiety makes your life.

Anxiety and stress can feel debilitating and even lead to creating physical ailments if left untreated. Anxiety and stress can be treated in as few as one/two treatments or several depending on the need. I believe it is important to determine the root cause of what is creating anxiety/stress. Once we localize the typical cause we can teach individuals how to counter the triggers that lead to anxiety/stress. We can use several treatments CBT, EMDR, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness and even lifestyle changes to help provide relief to help you begin living the life you would like to begin living.
