I supervise doctoral interns working with the severely anxious and stressed population, many of whom have concomitant trauma and psychotic disorders. My belief is that anxiety produces a range of depressive reactions which in the extreme can cause frightening and distressing physiological symptoms such as nightmares, panic attacks, phobias, and even hallucinations. I am a trained EMDR practitioner and have years of experience with extreme stress as well as the anxiety that flows in and around episodes of depression

The modern world we live in is full of amazing technological advancements and organizational wonders, but it is also more complex and demanding than ever before. The myriad competing demands of our lives, how busy we are, the continual pressure to do and be more creates enormous stress for all of us. This stress can escalate into anxiety and the added strain of these issues easily begins to short-circuit our ability to function at our best, to feel good, to maintain relationships and responsibilities. I can help you understand the internal and external forces creating these negative feelings, and together we can find strategies for minimizing stress and anxiety so you can feel better.
