Psychotherapy provides a robust and adaptable process for addressing both anxiety and stress, often integrating evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Through 1 therapy, individuals gain a supportive environment to understand the triggers and patterns associated with their anxiety and stress responses.

As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist for over 18 years, my main area of expertise is treating anxiety disorders, including Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, panic and phobias. I understand the crippling effects anxiety can have, ultimately making someone a prisoner inside their own head.

Anxiety encompasses the fears and worries that often dominate our lives. This state of mind feeds stress and can also contribute to stress becoming a vicious cycle. Counseling, hypnotherapy, meditation practices and yoga are all ways to assist with managing stress and anxiety. Counseling with me provides an outlet to process your feelings, receive validation and support, and discover new ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving. Hypnotherapy helps get to the root of your anxiety. As you learn to attend to your own needs, meditation and yoga serve as effective tools to focus your awareness into the present moment bringing peace and serenity. I look forward to the opportunity to work together!

In addition to helping alleviate the immediate symptoms of anxiety I will work to help you harness the energy of your anxiety. You can use that energy to help accomplish your goals.

At KML, we have several anxiety specialists. We believe that anxiety is highly neurological and we are 'wired' to move through the world in particular ways. Sometimes this can be due to traumas or other things that make us hypervigalent to the world around us. It is also highly genetic in nature. Anxiety can be located in the mind and also sometimes the body, just depending on the person. We are here to help you rewire your mind/body and cope with anxiety in more healthy ways. We also have unique evidence-based ways to help you, including test anxiety methods, EMDR, SSP, and others.
