ANXIETY
what is anxiety?
common types of anxiety
Anxiety isn’t just “worrying too much.” It’s the racing thoughts that won’t quiet down, the fear of judgment in social situations, the pressure to be perfect or pleasing to everyone around you.
Generalized anxiety
Persistent, excessive worry about everyday things—work, school, relationships—often feeling like something bad is always about to happen.
Obsessive
Compulsion (OCD)
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Intrusive, distressing thoughts (obsessions) that cause repetitive behaviors or rituals (compulsions) to reduce anxiety.
social anxiety
The fear of being judged, embarrassed, or saying the “wrong” thing, making social situations feel overwhelming.
Specific Phobia
Extreme fear of specific objects, situations, or places (e.g., heights, flying, public speaking) that can limit daily activities.
Panic
Attacks
Sudden, intense panic attacks with symptoms like a racing heart, shortness of breath, dizziness, and a fear of losing control, even when there’s no clear danger.
PERFECTION
Perfectionism, the constant pressure to be flawless, driven by fear of failure or judgment leading to overthinking, procrastination, and self-doubt.
✔ You overthink everything—replaying conversations, worrying if you said the wrong thing.
✔ You avoid speaking up, setting boundaries, or putting yourself out there in social situations.
✔ You feel like you have to be perfect to be accepted.
✔ You struggle with self-doubt and question if you’re “good enough.”
✔ You want to stop feeling anxious all the time and finally feel comfortable in your own skin.

How therapy can help
I use evidence-based modalities to help you break free from anxiety and regain confidence:
-
Gradual exposure to feared situations (especially for social anxiety and phobias) to help reduce avoidance and build confidence in real-world settings.
-
A cutting-edge approach that allows you to practice facing anxiety-provoking situations in a controlled, safe virtual environment. Whether it’s public speaking, social interactions, or exposure to feared situations, VR helps you build resilience and confidence before applying it in real life.
-
Helps identify negative thought patterns that fuel anxiety and replace them with healthier, more empowering beliefs.
What you will gain:
Ability to face your fears with confidence, rather than avoiding them. Through exposure therapy, you’ll gradually confront anxiety-provoking situations in a safe and controlled way, helping you reduce fear and regain control. Therapy is for you if you want to build resilience by learning how to tolerate discomfort, rewire unhelpful thought patterns, and build trust in your ability to cope. Imagine a like with a greater sense of freedom, no longer held back by anxiety, and equipped with the tools to navigate challenges with courage and confidence.
Even if it doesn’t feel like it now, things can get better—and you don’t have to figure it out alone. I know how exhausting it can be to carry the weight of self-doubt, anxiety, or the lingering effects of past experiences. Maybe you’ve tried to push through on your own, telling yourself it’s ‘not that bad’ or that you should be able to handle it.
Therapy is a space where you can finally take a breath, be heard, and begin to untangle the thoughts and emotions that feel overwhelming.
You don’t have to have all the answers right now—you just need a place to start. Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but with the right support, it does happen. If you’re ready to take that first step toward feeling more like yourself again, I’m here to walk alongside you.
