Overcome Anxiety With Professional Counseling
“I can’t relax, even when nothing is wrong.”
“My body feels tense all the time, like I’m bracing for something.”
“I get overwhelmed by things that shouldn’t be a big deal.”
“My mind keeps jumping to worst-case scenarios no matter what I do.”
“Anxiety is a function of the body meant to keep you on guard for danger. When we shape our environment to be safer and recognize our capacity to handle potential dangers, anxiety tends to decrease. Tired of feeling anxious? Book a free first session and let’s talk.”

Principles of Therapy for Anxiety
How does it work? Here are some core concepts:
Evidence-based Treatment
Engage in proven therapeutic approaches that are designed to reduce anxiety symptoms and help you regain a sense of control in daily life.
Develop Understanding
Learn how anxiety shows up in your body, thoughts, and behavior, and how it interacts with your personal experiences and stressors.
Face Your Fears
Gradually and safely approach situations you tend to avoid so your nervous system can learn that they are more manageable than they feel.
Improve Your Toolkit
Build practical coping skills like grounding, breathing techniques, and emotional regulation strategies to help you navigate anxious moments.
Challenge Beliefs & Thoughts
Notice and gently question anxious thinking patterns, replacing them with more balanced and realistic perspectives over time.
What techniques do you use?
I utilize many modalities to meet the needs of my clients, but here are my primary techniques!
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gives you a firm understanding of how your mind and emotions work, plus techniques for managing them.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps you live a fulfilling life through your values and accept what you cannot change.
Existential Therapy
Existential Therapy deals with your conception of people, the universe, and yourself to increase life satisfaction and fearlessness.
What populations do you serve?
I serve a wide range of populations, but here are some that I tend to be a good fit with.
Gen Z (18-29)
New technology has radically changed the world, forcing Gen Z to adapt to new problems that previous generations never had to face.
Millennials (30-45)
Being a Millennial myself, I understand the societal and generational problems that many of these men face.
Teenagers (13-17)
Finding their identity, I frequently challenge teens to think about what they want from their life and bear personal responsibility.
Christians
Being a Christian myself, I frequently incorporate faith and spirituality into therapy for clients who request it. However I serve clients from all backgrounds!
Gamers & Geeks
As a massive nerd and storyteller, I often utilize media references and metaphors to help clients understand concepts!
