Have you ever felt like an imposter in school, work, or your relationships? Do you constantly live with the fear of being "found out"? What about striving for perfection in all aspects of your life?

Navigating perfectionism-driven anxiety can be terrifying, and I don't want you to have to suffer this anymore. Holistic practices and Cognitive-Behavioral approaches can help reduce this anxiety tremendously.

Do you feel like you struggle to do everyday things that seem to come easily to others? Do you find that you’re your own worst enemy or harshest critic?

I am dedicated to working with clients grappling with anxiety, depression, trauma, women's issues and LGBTQIA concerns. My shared vocations of psychotherapist and yoga therapist/teacher enable me to take a broad view of healing.

Self-doubt, perfectionism and a busy mind easily lead to feeling overwhelmed and anxious. Anxious thoughts make it quite challenging to feel present and to live your most authentic life. Throughout your experience with anxiety, you may have done some research to understand how and why anxiety shows up for you, yet it can be overwhelming to know how this information can be applied to create meaningful change. Whether you are seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, decreasing the impact anxiety is having on your life, or craving more intentionality and presence, therapy at Cedar Rose can help you get there.
