Anxiety prevents you from being present and puts you in a position where you are either ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. In the moment, it can feel impossible to get out of it, and one cannot simply snap out of it. Similarly, stress can permeate multiple aspects of your life. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as mindfulness exercises to help you manage your anxiety. Eventually, we would also work together to understand why the anxiety shows up and how we can address the original source. Reach out today to book a free consultation.

I provide a compassionate and supportive environment for clients to explore the underlying causes of their distress. Through evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and relaxation exercises, I help clients develop effective coping strategies, challenge irrational thoughts, and promote self-care practices. By addressing the root causes and triggers of anxiety, clients can experience reduced symptoms, increased self-awareness, and a greater sense of calm and balance in their lives. Together, we work towards cultivating resilience, empowering clients to navigate challenges, and fostering a renewed sense of well-being.

As a Somatic (SE) therapist- mental & emotional health follows the state of the nervous system. If it is flowing seamlessly between sympathetic and parasympathetic; arousal and settling, within a “manageable range” there’s a deep, internal sense of well-being, emotional stability, confidence, clear thinking, aliveness, trust in self and others, and mastery. With SE we will focus on: Your experiences... in the body Learn to track, observe, describe what is going on for you Regulate internal arousal states, shift locked patterns into action, increase body awareness. Encourage emotional engagement with attention to: mindfulness, sensations, movements and impulses. Here & Now find YOU!

My approach to Anxiety and Stress Counseling combines compassionate self-inquiry into the roots of anxiety with somatic practices like breathwork to calm the nervous system. Clients learn healthy ways to express emotions, and build authentic, supportive relationships. Emphasis on setting boundaries helps reduce internal conflict, allowing greater emotional balance, resilience, and a sense of safety and well-being in daily life.
