Anxiety can be incredibly challenging to manage day to day, sometimes making relief feel out of reach. It can impact relationships, disrupt daily tasks, and leave you feeling overwhelmed by a whirlwind of thoughts. You might even feel ashamed for experiencing anxiety in the first place. Rest assured, anxiety is very common in our modern world, and there are ways to manage it and find more ease

Through therapy, we can explore different anxiety triggers at a pace that feels comfortable for you. This gentle process can help uncover and understand these triggers, ultimately fostering an inner space of clarity, compassion, and self-trust you can rely on when anxiety arises. By reframing anxiety and learning tools to navigate it, we can create more room for joy and peace in your life.

In our work together, I like to approach anxiety from a nuanced perspective, which helps reframe our relationship with it. Often, it's not anxiety itself that needs to be “fixed” but rather our relationship with it. I see anxiety not as a disorder but as a reflection of a sensitive, perceptive soul and nervous system. Anxiety often served an adaptive purpose at some point in our lives, helping us navigate challenges. Part of reducing anxiety lies in understanding that it was once a helpful response.
