Therapist Overview
Anxiety is a normal emotion. Without it, we wouldn’t prepare for job interviews, study for tests, or move out of the way of an oncoming car. But for some, anxiety becomes overwhelming & interferes with daily living. When anxiety becomes maladaptive it can be distressing, scary & embarrassing. The good news is anxiety disorders are treatable. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder & related problems from a cognitive behavioral perspective. My goal is to work collaboratively with patients to help them achieve their individual goals, and live full & productive lives. During treatment, I teach patients how to self-identify unhelpful thinking patterns & correct problematic thinking by challenging thoughts. We change behaviors utilizing Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), in which we confront distressing triggers without engaging in physical or mental rituals that provide short-term relief, but no long-term success.
