"The intellect is a beautiful servant but a terrible master"  -Ram Dass

Are you having racing thoughts of worry? Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? 

If this sounds like you, I’m eager to help. My practice offers the most effective forms of treatment, to get the relief from anxiety that you deserve.

When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy - as opposed to anxiety medication - treats more than just symptoms of the problem.

Often, these are the symptoms of anxiety:

• Nervousness, restlessness, or being tense
• Feelings of danger, panic, or dread
• Rapid breathing or hyperventilation
• Increased or heavy sweating
• Trembling or muscle twitching
• Weakness or lethargy
• Difficulty focusing or thinking clearly about anything other than the thing you’re worried about
• Insomnia
• Obsessions about certain ideas; a sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder
• Anxiety surrounding a particular life event or experience that has occurred in the past; a sign of post-traumatic stress disorder

Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, appreciate your nervous system, learn how to relax in your body and look at situations in their current context (not from the past or by anticipating a future catastrophe). When you can do this, you will find old coping mechanisms and undesired behaviors will soften.

If you suffer from an anxiety disorder, I invite you to contact me today for a free 15 minute phone consultation.
