Feeling a certain level of anxiety over big stressors or certain life events is totally normal. However, if you find that your fear or worry does not go away and, in fact, gets worse over time, you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. Mild anxiety is vague and unsettling and often passes quickly, while severe anxiety can seriously affect your day-to-day life. If you are finding your anxiety unmanageable, can’t identify the cause of your anxious feelings or if you are suffering from physical symptoms (such as heart palpations, fatigue, sweaty hands, upset stomach, or insomnia), it may be time to get help. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s anxiety specialists today.
Are you feeling like no one understands you? I get that. Are you having feelings of not belonging and that you don’t even know your own self anymore? I get that, too. Very often, others, like family and friends, can’t understand our trauma and pain, and we don’t want to burden them with it anymore. We feel like a broken record when we share that we aren’t doing well. We are embarrassed that we haven’t healed by now.

Does your life feel out of control? Is it not turning out how you expected? It isn't easy feeling overwhelmed and unsure. I work with troubled yet courageous people who come to me on their journey toward wellbeing. Many of my clients suffer from anxiety, depression, stress, life adjustment difficulties and relationship issues. Currently, my main area of focus is working with young adults uncertain about their future as well as with familial caregivers in need of support and guidance.

My clients are thoughtful, self-aware adults and young adults who often feel stuck in patterns of self-doubt, burnout, or emotional overwhelm. Many grew up feeling unseen or overly responsible. They come to therapy longing for deeper self-trust, healthier relationships, and a sense of ease in who they are. Together, we work gently and honestly toward healing, clarity, and growth.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am also experienced in healthy peer and intimate relationships, co-dependency, LGBTQ+, and adoption related issues. My approach is eclectic with an emphasis on CBT. Identifying faulty core beliefs in particular while working to accurately shift them can benefit overall progress. Increasing positive coping, self care, and mindfulness are also essential in my work. To start, we will explore what you want and discuss how we can get you there.

Are you someone who feels everything deeply and struggles to navigate your emotions? Do you have a hard time trusting yourself or feeling at home in your body? I help highly sensitive teens and young adults get comfortable in their feelings, build self-acceptance, and regulate their emotions. As you learn to trust yourself, your relationships and overall well-being can grow, too. If this resonates with you, I’d love to support you on your journey.

My LGBTQIA2S+ clients are acutely in tune with authenticity. At times, this quality can cause life to feel heavy and overwhelming. The worry, stress or fear can cause folx to feel stuck. The things that once helped, no longer work. Many of my clients have experienced depression, anxiety and trauma. Our journey together can help navigate these things and create a map for what is next.

You put on a brave smile and say you’re fine when you know you’re not. You’re exhausted because you’ve been carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. You’re isolated because you don’t recognize the woman you see in the mirror. You’re confused because you’ve lost sight of who you are. Even the relationships you care most about are now draining you. All your duties just keep piling on and you’re forced to keep bearing through it. Therapy can help untangle life's messiness.
