Anxiety Disorders

You don’t have to face anxiety alone. I combine evidence-based treatments with a client-focused, whole-person philosophy: each plan is shaped around your unique history, needs, and life circumstances.

What Is Anxiety

Anxiety is more than ordinary worry or stress. When thoughts of fear, dread, or unease become frequent, intense, or difficult to control and start interfering with your daily life, that can mean you’re dealing with an anxiety disorder. Symptoms may include:

Constant or excessive worry
Restlessness, nervousness, or feeling on edge
Racing thoughts, trouble concentrating
Sleep problems or insomnia
Rapid heartbeat, muscle tension, fatigue, or physical discomfort

Whether anxiety shows up as chronic worry, panic attacks, social fears, or phobias, know this: you’re not alone, and help is available.

How I Can Help

When you reach out, I’ll take the time to truly listen and understand what you’re going through. Our first evaluation will let me get a full picture of your mental health, lifestyle, and goals. From there, we’ll build a bespoke care plan using one or more of the following:

Medication management, when clinically appropriate, chosen carefully based on your history, preferences, and needs.
Lifestyle & self-care strategies, including sleep hygiene, stress-reduction techniques, healthy routines, and coping tools tailored to your day-to-day life.

Your treatment evolves as you grow: I’ll monitor progress, check in regularly, and adjust your plan as needed to help you reach lasting stability and emotional wellness.

Why Work With Me

You get care from a dedicated PMHNP with both clinical training and real-world mental health experience.
I believe in treating the whole person, not just symptoms and building a plan that fits your life, not a generic template.
I value clarity, communication, and collaboration: I walk alongside you, not above you.
I understand that each person’s journey is unique and I honor that by tailoring treatment with empathy, respect, and professionalism.

What You Can Expect

A comprehensive initial evaluation, to explore your history, symptoms, lifestyle, and goals.
A personalized treatment plan, possibly combining medication, therapy, and lifestyle tools.
Regular follow-ups, to track progress, address side effects or setbacks, and revise your plan as needed.
A supportive, judgement-free space, where you’re heard, validated, and empowered to heal at your own pace.

Ready to Take the Next Step

If anxiety is interfering with your daily life, making it hard to sleep, focus, work, or enjoy relationships, I’m here to help. Together, we’ll create a plan that feels manageable, realistic, and tailored to you.

Benzodiazepine Policy

I do not prescribe benzodiazepines, including Xanax (alprazolam), Klonopin (clonazepam), Ativan (lorazepam), Valium (diazepam), or Restoril (temazepam).

Instead, I use evidence-based, safer long-term options for anxiety, insomnia, and mood-related conditions. My goal is to support you with treatments that promote stability, reduce dependence risks, and improve long-term wellness.
