Practical, evidence-based support for adults who feel stuck in worry, overthinking, and self-criticism

If anxiety has become the background noise of your life—constant worry, racing thoughts, tension in your body, or a sense that you can’t fully relax—you’re not alone. And you’re not broken.

I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for adults who want more than insight alone. Therapy that helps you understand why anxiety shows up—and gives you concrete tools to change how it operates in your day-to-day life.

How CBT Helps with Anxiety

CBT is a structured, collaborative approach that focuses on the patterns between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

In our work together, you can expect to:

  • Learn practical tools to calm your nervous system

  • Reduce unhelpful thought loops and mental spirals

  • Change avoidance patterns that keep anxiety going

  • Build confidence in your ability to handle uncertainty

  • Track real progress over time, not just “talk it out”

CBT isn’t about positive thinking or forcing yourself to “calm down.” It’s about understanding what’s maintaining anxiety—and learning new ways to respond that actually work.

My Approach

Therapy with me is:

  • Warm and collaborative, but also focused and intentional

  • Grounded in evidence-based CBT strategies

  • Tailored to your goals, values, and pace

  • A balance of reflection, skill-building, and real-world application

We’ll work together to clarify what you want to change, identify patterns that keep anxiety stuck, and practice tools you can use between sessions—so therapy doesn’t stay in the therapy room.
