Anxiety Therapy
Finding Calm and Clarity When Anxiety Takes Over
Do Any of These Sound Familiar?
Constant worrying, racing thoughts, or “what if” spirals
Feeling restless, tense, or unable to relax
Struggling to sleep or waking up already exhausted
Physical symptoms like a racing heart, stomach issues, or muscle tension
Avoiding social situations or withdrawing from people you care about
If you recognize yourself here, you’re not alone. Anxiety can take over your life, leaving you overwhelmed, disconnected, and longing for peace.
Living with anxiety can feel exhausting — like you’re always bracing for something bad to happen, even when life looks “fine” on the outside. You may feel disconnected from your true self, from others, or from the life you want to be living. The truth is, anxiety isn’t a sign of weakness — it’s your nervous system calling out for care.
When Anxiety Runs Your Life
Do you feel like your mind won’t stop racing — leaving you tense, restless, or exhausted? Maybe you wake up already tired, or you notice physical symptoms like a tight chest, headaches, or stomach pain.
Anxiety can make it hard to be present. Instead of enjoying life, you may find yourself stuck in “what if” thinking, constantly on edge, or withdrawing from people you love. Even when nothing is “wrong,” the unease lingers.
And beneath the surface, anxiety often carries heavier fears you may not say out loud:
You worry it might be rooted in old trauma — from childhood, recently, or anywhere in between.
Anxiety and stress feel like they’re seeping into your relationships and work life.
You’re afraid you might lose control.
You feel trapped by your past, unsure how to move forward.
Or paralyzed by fears of what the future might hold.
Here’s the good news: therapy can help you calm your mind, ease the tension in your body, and uncover what’s fueling your anxiety.
As researcher Brené Brown reminds us:
"Anxiety thrives in the silence of unspoken stories. Healing begins when we dare to speak them." — Brené Brown
Understanding Anxiety
Anxiety often shows up as:
Excessive worry or rumination
Fatigue or restlessness
Irritability or hopelessness
Difficulty concentrating or completing tasks
Withdrawing from friends and family
Sometimes anxiety is triggered by grief, trauma, or major life transitions. Other times, it’s been with you for years — an unwelcome companion you’ve learned to manage but never fully understood.
The truth is anxiety is highly treatable. With the right support, you can find relief and build resilience.
Many Factors Beyond Our Control Can Contribute to Anxiety
While genetics and biology play a role, our environment and culture can intensify worry and stress. The constant stream of news, alerts, and social media often keeps our nervous systems on high alert — leaving us more unsettled than ever.
It’s natural to turn to quick fixes to try and cope, but these rarely provide real relief and can sometimes make things worse.
Therapy provides space to look beneath the surface. Anxiety is often a signal that something deeper needs attention. In our work together, I’ll help you uncover what’s driving your symptoms and give you a safe place to process. With the right support, even the weight of long-standing anxiety can begin to lift.
Even if anxiety has been with you for years, change is possible. With the right support, your nervous system will find calm, your body can exhale, and life can begin to feel lighter again.
A Unique, Integrative Approach to Anxiety Therapy
Anxiety isn’t just in your head — it’s in your body and nervous system, too. That’s why I use Lifespan Integration therapy (LI), a gentle, body-based approach that helps rewire old defense patterns and calm your nervous system.
With LI, we don’t have to relive every painful detail for healing to happen. Instead, your brain integrates past experiences in a way that reduces triggers, strengthens resilience, and creates space for lasting change.
We all carry so much with us — pain, joy, trauma, anxiety, and the stories that shape who we are. When anxiety takes the driver’s seat, it can feel like you’re powerless, just along for the ride.
But it doesn’t have to stay that way. Together, we’ll help you reclaim your sense of steadiness, confidence, and choice. Even in seasons of struggle, you are far more resilient — and capable of growth — than anxiety would have you believe.
You May Still Have Some Questions About Anxiety Counseling…
I’m curious about the cost of anxiety therapy.
Investing in your mental health is an investment in your quality of life. While there is a cost to therapy, there is also a cost to untreated anxiety — lost time, energy, peace and lost life that was hijacked by worry.
I’m concerned that I’ll become reliant on therapy.
Therapy is designed to help you discover your own inner resources. As you build security within yourself, you’ll feel less dependent on therapy and more confident in your ability to navigate life.
I’m concerned therapy might make my anxiety worse.
That’s a valid concern. With LI, you don’t need to unpack every traumatic experience for shifts to occur. This approach is gentler on your system while still creating deep change.
You Can Build A More Peaceful, Fulfilling Life
Anxiety doesn’t have to run your life. With the right support, you can calm your nervous system, regain perspective, and create a more grounded, authentic way of living. You don’t have to carry this alone.
