Common Questions

If you’ve experienced three or more symptoms persistently throughout the last 6 months, you meet the criteria for anxiety:
- restlessness or feeling keyed up or on edge
- easily fatigued
- difficulty concentrating or mind going blank
- irritability
- muscle tension
- sleep disturbance such as difficulty falling or staying asleep, or restless and unsatisfying sleep
Don’t worry, though, because it’s not a disease and it’s not permanent. There are many success stories from people who’ve found relief from lifestyle changes and evidence based therapy.

Anxiety is common to all ages. Six month olds to 3 year olds often experience separation anxiety, specific fears, or phobias. (1-2)
Children may express anxiety differently than adults. Here are some symptoms to look for when determining if therapy is right for your child (2):
- Able to speak at home, but won’t speak at school or with friends
- Seems excessively shy
- Fears of embarrassment or making mistakes
- Low self-esteem and lack of self-confidence
- Extreme worries about sleeping away from home
- Being overly clingy
- Panic or tantrums at times of separation from parents
- Trouble sleeping or nightmares
- Constant thoughts and intense fears about the safety of parents and caretakers

Evidence Based Therapies that Work Best For Anxiety

Best Treatment for Anxiety

The source of anxiety is different for different people, but there are common threads among us that we can address to find relief including lifestyle, community or environment, childhood trauma, genetics, and more. The goal of our time together will be to help you find more immediate relief from the symptoms that occur regularly with evidence based practices to “biohack” your body into feeling a sense of calm, as well as to find the root cause(s) of your anxiety and help you unlearn and unwind from those stressors. My practice addresses each of the facets related to anxiety for a holistic and lasting wellness approach.

For issues outside of my scope of practice, I will provide referrals to other providers and centers. You will walk away with more support than you had before when working with me.

Session Format:

Schedule individual appointments with me 1-3 times per week in person or online. Sessions work best when attended for at least 10-12 weeks.
