I struggled with depression, anxiety, and ADHD, suicide ideation. I’ve had a long journey of healing. As a counselor, I now use tools I’ve learned to help others. I will help you to stop distracting and avoiding yourself, as you strive to gain a deeper understanding of the “why’s” of your feelings and behaviors. As we work together, you’ll learn to work with yourself instead of against.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), with 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I graduated from Boise State University with a Masters of Social Work.

Understanding how you got “here” is often important as you try to get “there.” It can be a lonely journey without someone alongside you. I understand that finding the right therapist is paramount when it comes to seeking guidance, or when you need someone to share your story with. Asking for help is often difficult and uncomfortable.

I particularly enjoy working with individuals who have struggled with, or are resistant to traditional therapy. Navigating life's challenges can feel overwhelming, and for many, it can be difficult to express these feelings using only words. As an intuitive, I am able to connect with clients' energy and emotions to assist them in growing and healing. I frequently incorporate energy work and experiential activities to support them as they process experiences, discover individual strengths, and develop new skills to move through life with confidence.

Anxiety Therapists

What are the most common treatments for anxiety?

Talk therapy, particularly cognitive behavioral therapy, is the most common treatment for anxiety. Studies have shown it is equally effective as medication. Other popular forms of therapy are popular, depending on a patient’s experience. Exposure therapy, for instance, can be useful for people dealing with fears and phobias, or who have experienced traumatic events. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy may be useful for patients who need help with emotion regulation. Anxiolytic medications, like benzodiazepines, can also help with calming a person enough to focus on the skills they’ve learned, and physical exercise has been shown to help symptoms of anxiety across the board.

How long does therapy for anxiety take to work?

The amount of time needed to alleviate symptoms depends on the severity of a person’s condition. Some therapies may take 5-20 weekly sessions to show results. Anti-depressant medications typically take two to four weeks before a benefit is felt. Anti-anxiety medications are felt typically within 20-30 minutes. Medications are best used to offer a patient a better headspace in which to work on techniques learned in therapy. Exercise, improved sleep habits, and meditation are effective, but takes weeks or months to show results.

When should I seek treatment for anxiety?

Everyone feels anxious at times, but when anxiety causes disruption to your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Such disruption can be mental, physical, or both: having fear dominate your thoughts, avoiding situations or objects that bring on feelings of anxiety, or experiencing shortness of breath, sweating, dizziness, or panic attacks. When these symptoms are recurrent and distressing, it may be time to talk to someone.

How effective is treatment for anxiety?

Treatment for anxiety has been shown to be moderately to highly effective, according to a large body of psychology studies and analyses. For some people, treatment using CBT or exposure therapy alone is effective. Others respond best to a combination of medication and therapy.
