Therapy for Anxiety and Stress

Therapy for anxiety and phobias, focused on helping you manage worry, face your fears, and reclaim your peace of mind.

Is this what your anxiety feels like?

Anxiety can show up in many ways, from a constant, low-level hum of worry to intense, specific fears.

Unrelenting worry about a variety of topics.

Feeling like you're unable to turn your mind "off."

Physical symptoms like fatigue, sleeplessness, or stomach issues.

Fixating on the worst possible outcome in any situation.

Avoiding situations or activities out of fear.

Difficulty tolerating uncertainty or not knowing what will happen.

A Path Toward Peace

Therapy offers a supportive space to understand and manage your anxiety with proven, evidence-based techniques.

Challenge Anxious Thoughts

Become more aware of the thoughts and beliefs that fuel your anxiety, and learn effective cognitive-behavioral (CBT) techniques to challenge them.

Develop Coping Skills

Learn practical, in-the-moment skills to manage anxiety, such as relaxation breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and mindfulness exercises.

Confront Fears Safely

For specific phobias, we can gradually and safely confront situations you fear in a controlled, supportive manner, reducing their power over time.

Using approaches from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), you can learn to accept anxious feelings without judgment, which paradoxically lessens their intensity.
