Counseling for Anxiety
Do you find yourself taking on more than you can handle, saying yes when you really want to say no?
Do you lie awake at night, mentally juggling everything on your to-do list for the next day?
Are you constantly comparing yourself to others, never quite feeling like you measure up?
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone! And guess what? You don’t have to keep going through this exhausting cycle. Anxiety can be tough, but with the right support, you can find relief. I use evidence-based strategies to help you manage your symptoms and get to the root causes of your anxiety. That way, you can find lasting balance and peace.
Common Symptoms of Anxiety
Feeling restless, tense, or on edge
Persistent worry, panic, or dread (fight, flight, or freeze mode)
Rapid breathing or hyperventilation
Increased sweating, trembling, or muscle twitching
Chronic muscle tension, headaches, or fatigue
Difficulty concentrating or racing thoughts
Trouble falling or staying asleep
Obsessive thoughts or overanalyzing situations
Anxiety tied to a specific past event or experience
Therapy can help you understand the deeper sources of your anxiety, shift unhelpful thought patterns, and develop tools to navigate stress in a healthier, more sustainable way. You deserve to feel calm, in control, and free to live the life you dreamed of.
Perinatal Counseling
Did you know that 15-21% of individuals experience moderate to severe symptoms of depression or anxiety during pregnancy or the postpartum period? (Wisner KL, Sit DKY, McShea MC, et al. JAMA Psychiatry 2013)
Perinatal mood disorders can arise at any time during pregnancy, immediately following birth, or even months after. These challenges do not discriminate—perinatal mood disorders can affect individuals regardless of age, income, cultural identity, gender expression, or marital status. Unfortunately, they often do not resolve on their own without the right support and treatment.
Parenthood is a rollercoaster of emotions—joy, chaos, and everything in between. It’s easy to feel lost in your new role of caregiver and forget who you were before. If you’re feeling anxious, depressed, panicked, or have distressing thoughts about pregnancy or postpartum, I’m here to lend an ear. I genuinely care about your story, and I’m here to help you feel more like yourself again.
Common Perinatal Mood Symptoms Include:
Feeling overwhelmed and questioning if you’re cut out for parenthood
Guilt from high self-expectations or not measuring up
Difficulty bonding with your baby or feeling disconnected
Racing thoughts that seem impossible to quiet
Feeling emotionally numb or like you're just going through the motions
Trouble focusing or concentrating on anything other than your worries
Fear of being judged if you ask for help
Thoughts of running away or needing to escape
Constant worry or anxiety

I currently accept BlueCross BlueShield PPO and United Behavioral Health/Optum plans.
Depending on your current health insurance provider, it’s possible for services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.
I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:
Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
Payment
I require a credit or HSA/FSA card be on file prior to our first session.
