My clients come to see me because they can never relax. They are feeling tense, worried, and irritable. Every small problem feels like the last straw, and often they find themselves snapping at their loved ones and then feeling guilty about it. They often complain of a sense of dread for no reason, and feeling like every day is a neverending checklist of tasks to accomplish.
Did you know that 1 in 5 Americans has an anxiety disorder in any given year?
Many people delay seeking counseling because they feel like other people have much more difficult lives and they have no reason to feel the way they do. Not true! This is like saying, "I have more access to vegetables than people in other places, so I have no right to have symptoms of diabetes." Anxiety, like diabetes, is an illness that has both genetic and environmental causes, and it is treatable with both medical treatments and lifestyle changes.
Anxiety is a feeling that everyone experiences, but when it begins to impact your relationships, your work, and your ability to enjoy your life, you can benefit from treatment for anxiety in therapy.

When I met Lindsey I was a hot mess. I doubted my parenting skills, I was almost afraid of my young teen daughter and her mysterious behaviors, and felt unsupported in my marriage. What Lindsey taught me was how to dig deep and find what was true, accept my anxiety, and find the strength with which it actually empowers me.
Lindsey used a combination of visualization, laughter, “telling it like it is,” and real, everyday language - gifts that no other therapist has ever shown me. Sometimes I didn’t feel like going but once I got there I never once regretted pulling myself together and hearing Lindsey’s no-nonsense and colorful observations. Never letting me off the hook, Lindsey gave no advice; what she did do was dole out reflections of the truth of the moment. With her coaching, joking, and being there for me, I am stronger and very changed.
As Lindsey says, there was always a $#itstorm, but now I can say out loud, “Hey! This is a $#itstorm!” and deal.

Anxiety occurs for many reasons, including traumatic events, long periods of stress, genetic predisposition, and persistent depression. When you experience a traumatic event or long periods of stress, your brain can begin to think that it constantly needs to look out for threats. When your brain is in this mode, it is impossible to relax! Your brain is trying to protect you, but often my clients need to be trained how to tell their brains to stop.
I will teach you a number of relaxation techniques to give you skills to manage your daily stress. I will also be assisting you in retraining your thought processes to move from catastrophe thinking to a more thoughtful and intentional process.

My daughter was 15 years old at the time. I was very concerned about her behavior. We met Lindsey for a counseling session. My husband and myself and my daughter. It turns out I needed the counseling myself. My husband was an alcoholic and drug addict. When I first started I was very depressed and living life in a blur. I was a complete mess. She was always very caring and supportive. She is so down to earth she put me at ease immediately. She suggested I see the Dr. to check my medication. It turns out that my medication was changed and made a huge difference in my state of mind. She helped me through a divorce and my daughter graduating and going off to college and into my current life. I don't know where I would be right now if I had not sought help from Lindsey. She is a lifesaver! I am now doing very well. She is an absolute Angel! I can't say enough good about her. I am very grateful that everything turned out as it did. I have tried counseling many times before with no success. I have learned not to be so hard on myself. She is truly great at her job!
