My goal is to help clients discover and more effectively utilize their own inner strengths and to acquire, develop and become proficient in applying new skills to live healthier lives.

People may suffer with anxiety and panic attacks and not even know that is what they are dealing with. Not knowing what you are dealing with adds so much more fear to an already overwhelming experience.
The common symptoms of anxiety are: a constant overall sense of fear, tightness in the chest, difficulty focusing, inability to concentrate or retain information, a sense of dread that something bad is going to happen, feeling scared, restlessness, irritability, difficulty sleeping, an urge to run away, feeling tired all the time, a dry mouth, sighing, an inability to feel relaxed, keyed up, and possibly a dizzy feeling.
