How do you work with clients with anxiety?

My work with anxiety starts with listening to your unique experience and understanding what situations, thoughts, and feelings drive your symptoms. Anxiety can show up in many forms, and part of my role is to sort through the details carefully so the treatment fits you and not just the label. I am conservative with medications and very deliberate about what I prescribe. If we use medication, I will explain why I am recommending it, what it does, and what to watch for. My goal is for you to understand your treatment as clearly as I do. You will always be encouraged to ask questions, challenge recommendations, and make decisions with me, never feeling like things are hidden or rushed. I want every patient to leave knowing they are heard, understood, and fully informed.

I take a structured, evidence-based approach to treating anxiety, starting with a thorough evaluation to understand the root causes and how symptoms are affecting your daily life. Treatment typically includes a combination of medication management (when appropriate) and practical, CBT-informed strategies to help reduce excessive worry, improve emotional regulation, and restore functioning. I work collaboratively with clients to identify triggers, develop coping skills, and create a personalized treatment plan focused on real, measurable improvement.

I work with clients with anxiety by first understanding how anxiety is showing up in their daily life whether that looks like constant worry, racing thoughts, panic, irritability, difficulty sleeping, feeling overwhelmed, or trouble slowing down. I take a practical and collaborative approach, looking at the full picture, including emotional symptoms, physical health, stress levels, routines, and any other factors that may be contributing. When appropriate, I provide medication management as part of treatment, while also helping clients better understand their symptoms and what may be fueling them. My goal is to create a treatment plan that feels realistic, personalized, and supportive, so clients can feel more stable, more in control, and better able to function in everyday life.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and founder of Open Chair Psychiatry & Mental Wellness. I provide telehealth psychiatric medication management for adults across Ohio with a focus on accessible, practical, and collaborative mental health care. My background in nursing and advanced psychiatric practice allows me to take a whole-person approach, recognizing how mental health, physical health, lifestyle, and life stressors interact. I believe treatment works best when patients feel heard, respected, and involved in decisions about their care. I have experience treating depression, anxiety disorders, mood instability, and other complex psychiatric conditions. My practice focuses primarily on medication management while emphasizing education and practical strategies that support long-term stability. I aim to expand access to quality psychiatric care for adults throughout Ohio, including those in communities with limited mental health resources.

My anxious clients often feel stuck in the middle. Their anxiety comes from people pleasing, perfectionism, and codependent habits. These habits were helpful at one time to keep them safe, but now in their adult lives, these strategies are no longer working in the same way. We often discover a history of relational trauma, broken attachments, and a deep core desire to be loved, seen, and respected. My approach to anxiety rooted in relational trauma is to unpack and reprocess the old memories and messages telling you that you're not enough, you don't matter, or you're too sensitive.

I help reactive, anxious, and chronically overwhelmed people learn how to go deep into the roots of these unhelpful patterns so they can discover a new way to show up in their life and relationships.
