Specialties -womens mental health -anxiety -ocd -maternal mental health I help ambitious, successful women who experience uncomfortable physical symptoms of anxiety often without understanding why. Physical anxiety can be debilitating. It can leave highly driven women stuck in a cycle of endless to do lists, catching up on the week and having no time for themselves. Anxiety is the nervous system being stuck in the “on” position. Insight alone, however, isn’t what turns that switch off. Real change happens when we work with the brain and nervous system using small, simple, science-based strategies that help rewire their communication and allow anxious sensations to move through and out. I also teach values-based goal setting, so your actions are aligned with what truly matters to you, helping you feel fulfilled rather than constantly exhausted. My goal isn’t for you to slow down or do less, but to build a full, meaningful life where success doesn’t come at the cost of your well being. In addition I treat OCD using ERP therapy (exposure and response prevention therapy). I also specialize in maternal mental health, everything from fertility treatment, loss, pregnancy to postpartum.
