Understanding Anxiety: When Worry Takes Over

Anxiety can affect every area of life — relationships, work, health, and overall well-being.
You may find yourself:

  • Constantly worrying about “what if” scenarios
  • Feeling restless, on edge, or irritable
  • Experiencing racing thoughts that are hard to control
  • Avoiding situations out of fear or discomfort
  • Struggling with physical symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or sleep problems

While occasional anxiety is normal, persistent anxiety that interferes with your daily life is a sign that professional help could make a difference.
The good news? Anxiety is highly treatable, and effective strategies are available.

My Approach to Anxiety Treatment

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), recognized as the gold standard for treating anxiety.
My training under Dr. Judith Beck at the Beck Institute ensures you are receiving the most up-to-date, effective interventions based on decades of research.

Through our work together, you will learn how to:

  • Identify and reframe distorted thinking patterns that fuel anxiety
  • Break the cycle of avoidance and build resilience
  • Strengthen your ability to tolerate uncertainty
  • Manage physical symptoms through relaxation and mindfulness techniques
  • Develop a realistic, empowering outlook toward challenges

Every treatment plan is personalized. Therapy is a collaborative process — we work together to find the strategies that fit your needs, lifestyle, and goals.
