Anxiety can make it difficult to connect with ourselves and other. Almost every client I've worked with has faced some form of anxiety, which highlights its pervasive role in our lives. In our sessions, I aim to build a supportive and understanding space where we can explore how anxiety affects your relationships and work together to find strategies listen to it so that you can learn to take care of yourself in it.

David Venzor

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

I view anxiety not as a defect, but as a signal—often an existential one. Rather than simply trying to quiet the symptoms, we look at what anxiety is saying about your relationship to freedom, choice, and the unknown. We work to build the gear necessary to face life's uncertainties without being paralyzed by them. This isn't toxic-positivity rebranded; this is the capacity to navigate the magnitude of what it means to be human with intention.

Kate Degenhardt, PhD (She/Her/Hers)

Clinical Psychologist

Licensed Psychologist

Excessive worry can make life feel overwhelming, leaving you drained and on edge. I use evidence-based therapies like CBT to help you challenge anxious thoughts, reduce physical tension, and reclaim calm. Together, we’ll build practical tools to help you manage stress and engage fully in life.

Jean Mullen (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA, Clinical Mental Health Counseling

Anxiety can be a constant companion for many of us. I use Mindfulness and Narrative Therapy with a working knowledge of neurobiology to help you reduce symptoms and gain an understanding of your anxiety. Mindfulness helps us become aware of our moment-to-moment feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations. Narrative therapy can help us separate ourselves from our anxiety, giving us a little breathing room to explore our history and relationship with anxiety.

Dr. Michelle Pliske (She/Her)

Anxiety is a common condition in which the person excessively worries about a variety of different topics or a specific topic or experience. This worry is excessive and uncontrollable and associated with additional symptoms of anxiety. I provide support from a relational and cognitive behavioral approach to reduce stress and worry and engage in life.

Anxiety often intensifies during times of uncertainty and life transition.

Alex MacLeod (he/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CRC, NCC

I've received training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Somatic Experiencing, both of which I find to be helpful approaches in supporting people with anxious, flighty, fast-paced, and frozen nervous systems. If you feel on-edge more than you'd like to, stuck in well-worn ruts of anxious thinking, or if there's something in particular that is so hard to look at that it's been preferable to avoid it entirely, I am equipped to stand next to you and support you to find your footing.

Andrew Harms (He/him)

Anxiety is an adaptive strategy that can become debilitating, and if this is the case for you, we will work together at unraveling the messages anxiety is giving you both mentally and physically so that you can better manage life stressors.

Hadi Farah (he/him)

Psychiatrist

MD

Anxiety can creep in quietly or crash into your life all at once. Maybe you wake up already feeling tense, or your thoughts spin so fast you can’t keep up. For some, it’s a slow build that wears them down. For others, it’s sudden waves of panic that seem to come out of nowhere. Whatever form it takes, anxiety has a way of shrinking your world. Dr. Hadi Farah helps clients slow things down and look at what’s really going on.

Brad Creel (he/him)

Nathan Becker (he/him)

When your mind won’t slow down, when worry runs the show, when you’re exhausted from overthinking everything, you’re not alone.

Laura Marie Separa MA LPC MFT

Anxiety often results from feeling overwhelmed and unprepared. While some anxiety is our bodys natural way of warning us of a possible threat, it can often feel like our lives are spinning out of control.

Peter Gold (he/him)

Professional Counselor

Anxiety can be a form of blocked creativity. It can also stem from worry and fear. My approach to working with anxiety comes from a mind/body orientation--acknowledging that the body influences the mind's state of being as well as the emotions. I incorporate the moving meditation of qigong into talk-therapy sessions with specific exercises for anxiety.

Anxiety is one of our greatest afflictions as a society. We frequently work with clients with anxiety disorders of all kinds, including panic, OCD, and PTSD. We use many approaches to treat anxiety, but pull from cognitive behavioral therapy approaches, mindfulness, and exposure and response prevention (ERP) to help you learn skills to manage these intensely uncomfortable experiences.

Michael Wilson, MA

Licensed Professional Counselor

In working with individuals suffering from anxiety I have found that it is an inability to properly identify and manage the body's emotional experience that leads to the distress. I utilize emotion focused therapy to identify the negative emotional experience and together with the client develop healthier coping strategies to deal with that emotion.

Danielle McWilliams LPC (she/her)

Anxiety is such a shapeshifter, and seems to be a nearly unavoidable companion of the modern era. Learning to recognize & diminish signs & symptoms, as well as transform how we relate to anxiety can facilitate movement, new experience, and a sense of relief from dominating impact.

Sara Rapaport (she/her)

Rather than treating anxiety as a symptom to be fixed, I work with anxiety through the lens of exploring underlying unresolved emotions, unmet needs, or past survival strategies that are contributing to current anxious symptoms.

Ryan Kopyar

Licensed Professional Counselor

I help clients move through anxiety by exploring both the emotional patterns and the deeper spiritual roots beneath the surface.

Justice Arledge LPC Associate, MS (he/him)

Anxiety is the normal healthy fear that we have about everyday things we find in life. Anxiety could also be that paralyzing persistent fear that cripples us and holds us back from achieving our life goals. Therapy helps the client work through some of their thoughts and will help a person be more aware of them self as well as how life affects them.

Joaquin Lopez (he/him)

Anxiety is a symptom of uncertainty, experiencing the unknown, and the inability to quiet the 'noise' that permeates our being. I believe in approaching anxiety with mindfulness, stream of consciousness to reveal what lies beneath the surface, and behavior modification.

Allison Fox

Anxiety can feel like living in a body that never fully exhales. Together, we’ll get curious about the fears beneath the surface, and learn to soften the patterns of hypervigilance, self-doubt, or urgency. I’ll support you in building nervous system capacity, expanding your emotional range, and finding ways to relate to anxiety with more clarity, compassion, and choice—so it doesn’t run the whole show.

Gemma Baumer (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A. in Counseling

Anxiety is our body's way of alerting us that something needs our attention--perhaps we are not living in accordance with our deepest selves, we cannot reconcile our life with what we truly want, or that we hold onto the impact of living with hypervigilence and disconnection. We can address the underlying concerns of anxiety in a therapeutic space that feels warm, safe, and exploratory, and seek to resolve what our anxiety can tell us about our experience of being alive.

Laney Kibel

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

Anxiety can take many forms, what is consistent across the board is the discomfort of anxiety. In addition to talk therapy I introduce people to the aplha stim machine. Through micro current waves the brain moves from agitated state to a more relaxed brain wave...the alpha wave. Helpful anxiety, depression and sleep issues.

Gina Patrick

For anxiety, I integrate Lifespan Integration and Hakomi to address the physiological roots of distress.

Dr. Chinwe Madu (she/her)

Clinical Social Work Associate

PharmD, CSWA

Anxiety can show up even when you appear to be holding it together on the outside. It may feel like chronic worry, overthinking, tension in your body, trouble relaxing, difficulty sleeping, or always feeling a little on edge. You may be carrying a lot and pushing through while feeling increasingly overwhelmed inside. In therapy, we slow things down and help you understand how anxiety is showing up in your thoughts, body, and nervous system so it feels less overwhelming and more manageable.

Sarah Jurrens (She/Her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

We spend time differentiating anxiety from ADHD, OCD, and trauma‑based hypervigilance, as well as understanding that it is often a symptom of these potential disorders. The assessment process explores the roots of worry, overwhelm, and somatic tension with nuance and compassion. Helping clients understand whether their anxiety is a standalone condition, a trauma response, or a secondary effect of living in a world that has not supported their neurotype.

Nani Waddoups (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Part of the Existential philosophy that guides my practice is the acceptance that Anxiety is a part of being human. Awareness that our time is limited, and ultimately we alone are responsible with what we do with our lives, creates a natural anxiety. When this anxiety rises to a distressing level, therapy helps to recalibrate, and transform that energy into fuel for a self-directed life.

Ryan Leiderman (he/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

I use a collaborative, solution-focused and psychodynamic approach, along with mindfulness and CBT.

Leif Moa-Anderson (He/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, LMHC

Anxiety is a natural part of existence, in fact, you need it! However, not all anxiety is useful and too much can be a really big problem. However, we can learn to manage anxiety and help keep it to a functional level. I have helped many clients with OCD, social anxiety, hoarding, and PTSD driven phobias. I use mindfulness based CBT to address the behaviors, a systems perspective to address the thoughts, and a Existential/Humanist approach to address the deeper anxieties we all share.

Terri Mishler, PsyD

Joey Bloom

Hypnotherapist

Having suffered for a long time with anxiety/panic attacks, I know very well how debilitating it can be; whether it shows up as a panic attack or just a general ongoing feeling of anxiety. Using trance and guided meditation, we can restructure and actually remove these very old thought patterns which have been lodged into place for so long.

Doug Chapman (he/his)

Jed Rendleman (he/him)

Anxiety often indicates that there are other emotions and experiences that want to be felt, but something is blocking access to them. I help clients find and feel what wants to be felt. I use mindfulness and somatic techniques that can enable us to reduce the frequency and intensity of anxiety while we work to excavate its roots.

Debra Schnack (she/her/hers)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

LMFT

When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because therapy for anxiety — as opposed to taking anxiety medication — treats more than just symptoms to the problem. Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, learn how to relax, look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.

Ashley Dahl (she/her)

Clinical Social Work Associate

MSW, LSWAIC, CMT-P

When anxiety takes hold, thoughts spiral into the future, focusing on what can go wrong. For 20+ years I've been supporting people to interrupt these patterns, regain perspective, and return to present moment embodiment. Blending modalities such as MBCT, ACT, neuropsychology, and somatic relaxation, I'll help you address the root causes of persistent worry, panic and reactivity. Together we’ll restore balance to your nervous system, and cultivate a deeper sense of safety.

Eric Goodwin (He/They)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, NCC, MS

Anxiety can feel like your system is constantly on alert, working overtime to prevent something from going wrong. Instead of fighting anxiety, we slow down to understand what it’s trying to manage and how to create steadier internal balance. As we make sense of it together, its intensity often softens, creating more calm and choice in how you respond.

Chris Lehman

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, MS, LPC

Anxiety can be painful and debilitating. It can also be our best teacher and help keep us safe. One of the most important skills we can learn is how to listen to our anxiety, and respond in effective self soothing ways. In this way we can limit the negative impacts and increase our creativity. I have focused on developing a broad range of treatments for anxiety, and the accompanying issues. I empathize a safe, creative, nonjudgmental approach to anxiety reduction.

Matthew Beeble (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Anxiety can take many forms and can stem from different sources. It can influence your sense of self, how you relate to others and disrupt your ability to function in everyday life. One of the most damaging things anxiety can do is cause you to prioritize avoiding your fears rather than pursuing your desires. I enjoy helping people understand their anxiety in order to free themselves of unnecessary constraints and live a more satisfying life.

Dean Sanchez

Christa Cummins (she/her)

Anxiety can be one of the clues we use to know we need to make adjustments in our lives.

Garon Nemyre

Professional Counselor

MA, APC

I see anxiety as a sign that too much energy is moving too fast or without direction. Instead of managing it away, we slow the field enough to understand what is driving the urgency, whether fear, overwhelm, unmet needs, or a part of you trying to protect something vulnerable. By working with the body, imagery, and underlying patterns, anxiety becomes a doorway to greater steadiness and inner coherence.

Kathryn (Jasmine) Green (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA, Professional Counselor Associate (OR)

Treating anxiety in counseling includes identifying triggers, challenging negative thoughts with CBT, and teaching coping strategies like mindfulness or relaxation. Solution-Focused Therapy aids in setting achievable goals, while exposure therapy helps reduce fears. For clients seeking faith-based support, integrating practices like prayer and scripture can provide additional strength and resilience.

Cameron Kemper (he/him)

Eden Baron-Williams (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA, Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Jonathan Joebgen

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

We all have anxiety to some extent and it's a good thing because it often keeps us safe. The trouble is when our system of assessment is off and we find ourselves responding to threats that may not be there or not to the extent we think they are. With a sense of understanding and kindness we can explore those worries and fears together to find a way of moving forward.

Dasia Star (she/they)

Allison Batty-Capps (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, LMFT

Many of us have experienced difficulty things and/or have current life stressors. Anxiety symptoms are the bodies natural defense mechanism. I work with individuals to help them understand what their body is communicating and how to develop coping skills to decrease the symptoms of anxiety.

I also utilize a combination of internal family systems theory, Jungian archetypal psychology and reiki

I understand anxiety from first-hand experience and can attest to evidence-based practices that work, including body-mind integration, nervous system repatterning, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

Robin Carlisle (She/her)

Hypnotherapist

Anxiety is a form of habituated negative looping. Hypnosis interrupts the momentum that has been driving the force behind those troubling thoughts and trains the brain to STOP and redirects the thought process towards beneficial patterns of thinking, eventually replacing the old anxiety with new healthy, productive frames of interpretation, resulting in a rich and fulfilling life experience!

Chris Broussard (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

M.A., CADC-I

Anxiety can have many root causes. Sometimes the cause is found in current circumstances. Other times, it is not easy to identify the cause. I use trauma-informed cognitive, somatic, behavioral, emotion-focused, psychodynamic, and/or mindfulness approaches tailored to your particular situation to uncover root causes and identify the most effective strategies to work with anxiety.

Kelley O'Gorman (she/her)

I use my own skills and they work!

Melissa Yeary (she/her)

It's important to explore the underlying thoughts, feelings, and related experiences associated with anxiety as well as the body's response to stress.

Karen Albert (she/her)

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

PMHNP

When anxiety hits, your mind may race, sleep disappears, and tension keeps you on edge. In our sessions we’ll unpack how anxiety shows up for you, explain what’s happening in your brain and body, and choose care that fits your life. Medication can help, and we’ll consider it together—no pressure, at your pace. I often pair meds with therapy and will coordinate with your therapist or connect you to someone on our team. Let’s help you feel steady, present, and more like yourself again.

Kirah Doerr (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

Anxiety can make you feel stuck in a cycle of worry, fear, or constant overthinking. You might feel on edge, like your mind is always racing or that you're waiting for something to go wrong.

Together, we’ll explore the roots of your anxiety and develop strategies to help you regain a sense of calm and control. Schedule an appointment with me to start living with more ease.

Nova (Stephenie) Knutson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, Certified Hakomi Practitioner, AEDP level 2

The pervasive impacts of anxiety can be deeply disruptive to living an engaged and satisfying life. Latent emotions and unmet needs often underly and intensify anxiety. I work with anxiety from a both somatic (physical) and emotional perspective to support making the kinds of changes that lead to reduction of anxiety and its accompanying symptoms.

Andrea Kersting (they/she)

Clinical Social Work Associate

MSW, CSWA

Anxiety can feel like a constant hum in the background or a wave that takes over.

Ongoing supervision and continuing education in DBT skills contribute to my work with Anxiety.

Cory Anton

Licensed Professional Counselor

Anxiety is one of the most commonly experienced human emotions. However, if you are feeling worried more often than not, if reassurance and checking is no longer helping reduce anxiety, or you find yourself avoiding things that might cause anxiety, you may be experiencing symptoms of an anxiety disorder. Therapy can help you regain control of your life and put your anxiety back in it's place.

Victoria Snyder (She/ her)

Student Counselor

LPC Intern

I help people explore unsconscious patterns, connect with deeper meaning, and build psycholoogical flexibility and resilience.

Blake Locher (he/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CRC

A feeling that is meant to protect us and keep us safe can take on a life of its own and become overwhelming. The energy spent on anxiety, nervousness, fear, and dread can come out in a variety of ways but is always exhausting and restricting. Together we can develop awareness of your symptoms and triggers and then develop coping strategies to help you reclaim ownership of your life.

Allyssa Wood (she/her)

Pauline Botchway (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Ph.D, LPC, LMHC, NCC

Anxiety shows up differently for everyone. For some, it's racing thoughts that won't quiet down. For others, it's a knot in the stomach, a tightness in the chest, or a constant sense that something bad is about to happen. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based approaches, we'll work together to understand your anxiety patterns, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and develop practical strategies for managing overwhelming emotions.

Veronica Wilson (she/her)

Sarah Ranney (she/her)

I treat anxiety through a compassionate, trauma-informed approach that integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), and somatic practices.

Anxiety can make it difficult to focus, rest, and feel like yourself.

Chynna Springer (she/her)

Whether due to stressors, life changes, or feeling overwhelmed by everyday life, anxiety can crop up in our lives in many ways and for some it can become debilitating. CBT is very effective for the many different manifestations of anxiety.

I especially enjoy working with individuals who experience Social Phobia and Generalized Anxiety.

MELANIE EATON (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, LICSW

Anxiety can significantly impact our quality of life. General anxiety seems to follow us everywhere we go and more specific worries or phobias pop up and stop us in our tracks. Our work will illuminate the connections between the worries and fears that plague you now and the past experiences that created them. With care and compassion, we bring healing to those parts of you and unburden what's no longer needed. We reorient your awareness to the present where you can find ease. ​

Laura Wozniak (she/her)

Anxiety and Depression go together. Both can be helped with CBT/DBT/behavioral and supportive interventions. It is important to help the client make life decisions that create a healthy life as the first step and to reduce the suffering due to the symptoms through coping skills including mindfulness and a hopeful perspective. At times, medication may be helpful and I can help monitor this with the prescriber.

Danielle Morgan (She/her)

I specialize in treating anxiety through a comprehensive approach that combines medication management and supportive psychotherapy. Anxiety is more than just excessive worry—it stems from a complex interaction of neurochemistry and life experiences.

Autumn Counseling Services LLC

Anxiety can really negatively impact our lives. Many people struggle with physical sensations, such as difficulty breathing, heart racing, or feeling hot or sweaty.

Our therapists can help you learn what triggers your anxiety and ways to cope with these symptoms

Megan Bucknum (She/Her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW CADC I

Experiencing anxiety is a normal part of life. Sometimes we feel anxiety so intensely, in our attempts to cope and survive, we may find ourselves moving away from the life we want. Enjoyable activities may no longer feel possible and our circle of workability may start to shrink. My training treating anxiety utilizes approaches to assist others in connecting to their values, unhooking from painful thoughts/feelings, growing self-compassion, and helping you reconnect to what is important to you.

Allison Strausberg (she/they)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

I utilize various evidence-based modalities to help my clients learn to work with emotions and the body so that they can better understand underlying needs and discern when the past might be interrupting the present in order to cultivate deeper understanding, grounded decision-making, and emotional resilience.

Jenny Larson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC (OR), LMHC (WA), EMDR Certified

Our brains work hard to keep us safe and feeling like we belong, but sometimes those strategies cause more harm than good and keep us from living the life we want. Anxiety can feel exhausting as we constantly try to get rid of or ignore thoughts and feelings that aren’t helping, but find that we can’t get rid of them. Therapy can provide a safe space to explore those thoughts and feelings that we can’t avoid, so that we can truly let go of them and move forward in the life we want to be living.

Evan Stuart (he/him)

Professional Counselor Associate

Mindfulness tools, compassionate empathy, and creating a safe space for recognizing unhelpful thought patterns give you a chance to change thought patterns, bring more ease and confidence into your life and create positive change.

Polly Gravely (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, MFT Licensed in OR and WA

Life can feel like it's coming at us nonstop—and that overwhelm can feed anxiety. We often try to gain control, but when that doesn’t work, the anxiety only grows. I help people not only reduce the symptoms, but also develop awareness of what’s driving the anxiety. Gradually, it softens—and you gain more clarity, choice, and freedom in your life.

Jasmine Quistorf (she, they)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA in Professional Mental Health Counseling

I work with clients to treat anxiety using practical, research-supported techniques to regulate the mind and body. Somatic interventions, such as body awareness and breathwork, tap into the body’s wisdom to release tension and activate the parasympathetic nervous system, calming the stress response. Creative techniques engage the brain’s neuroplasticity, allowing new neural pathways for emotional processing. Mindfulness practices lower cortisol levels and improve emotional regulation.

Katya Stark (She/Her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MS, NCC, LPC

My approach integrates somatic awareness and relational dynamics, allowing clients to recognize how anxiety manifests in their bodies and relationships. Using Gestalt techniques and mindfulness-based interventions, I guide clients in shifting from overthinking to embodied presence, fostering a sense of grounding and control.

You often worry about the future, or spend time replaying the past. Anxiety can show up in many ways - from difficulty sleeping, frequent worrying, irritability and often feeling guilty. It is exhausting to feel a lot of anxiety - I can help you find more balance.

Travis Wright (he/him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

I am not sure there are many people nowadays who do not feel some measure of anxiety. In fact, I would like to think that this might be the appropriate response to the world we live in. That being said I think that anxiety can be all consuming and in this respect becomes dysfunctional. The question then becomes how do we mitigate the anxiety of our lives in way that does not avoid necessarily but invigorates us as a call to action.

Aaron Buchholz

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

I have a lot of experience helping people to successfully cope with mild to severe anxiety. People with anxiety often experience: Restlessness or feeling on edge, difficulty falling or staying asleep, intrusive thoughts, fear and panic, indecisiveness, difficulty concentrating, muscle tension, irritability

Suzanne Sanchez (she/her)

Anxiety is something almost everyone faces these days. I help clients recognize how anxious thoughts show up in their lives and teach tools to manage them with awareness and compassion. Instead of trying to eliminate anxiety, we work on living with it in a healthier, more balanced way.

sandeep kumar

Licensed Professional Counselor

If you suffer from general anxiety, social anxiety, or other anxiety, I can help through the use of mindfulness practices and assisting you in uncovering the root causes of the stress. As society becomes more fast paced, social media takes our attention, or our children become time-pressured, training the mind to respond in a way that effectively calms during stressful moments becomes essential.

Amanda Ichihashi Jagerman (She/her/hers)

Su Yim, MSW, LCSW (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Anxiety is misery. Whether it's pervasive or situation-specific, anxiety sucks the spark from life. In my work with people with anxiety, I use cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and acceptance and commitment therapy to build skills and awareness around their triggers and symptoms. Because life doesn't have to feel this way.

Terry Moody (she/her)

Qualified Mental Health Professional

M.A.

Anxiety is your nervous system’s attempt to keep you safe in a world that can feel overwhelming or unpredictable. Rather than eliminating it, we learn what the anxiety is trying to tell you and develop a different relationship with it. Anxiety lives in the body as much as the mind, so we use somatic approaches, including breathwork and mindfulness for grounding. You learn to notice anxiety without being swept away or afraid of it, discovering that beneath lies deep care, sensitivity, and wisdom.

Madeleine Moreland (she/they)

Clinical Social Work Associate

I can help provide tools to reduce anxious symptoms without medication. I use a holistic mind-body approach to address panic and anxiety attacks, promote mindfulness, and increase feelings of calm throughout your day.

James Whalen (He/Him)

Anxiety has many forms, and almost all of them are uncomfortable, painful experiences. I tend to use my calming presence to help anxious clients feel safe in the therapy environment. Once we've established a sense of safety, we can move on to learning about the roots of your anxiety and how to change your relationship with those roots so that you can learn to respond to your symptoms more effectively.

Emily Schwartz (She/Her)

Sally Rudolph (she/her)

Licensed Art Therapist

LCAT, ATR-BC

In my view, anxiety is a sign from the nervous system that it could use help feeling more regulated. Somatic approaches and IFS (Internal Family Systems) can tap into how our body communicates with us, and how to tend to the physical and mental sensations of anxiety. I have been trained in Somatic Embodiment and Regulation Strategies, IFS as well as Trauma-Informed CBT that have informed my understanding of anxiety and how best to regulate it.

Carrie Sturrock (she/her)

Do you feel like you're white-knuckling it through your days with so many things to worry about or brace for, all the while feeling irritable, edgy and nervous? Anxiety can disrupt sleep, keep you "in your head" and make it harder to connect with others. It can look a lot of different ways. Learning to recognize the parts of you that are anxious and what those parts need can help you manage anxiety and calm your nervous system.

Phil Small (he/him)

Kaia Stamiris (They/She)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC, NBCC

I work with anxiety both through the lenses of acceptance and action. Acceptance of anxiety is a challenging yet worthwhile pursuit because not only is it necessary for survival, the functions it motivates can be highly adaptive! Using mindfulness, we will increase body-based awareness of varying levels of anxiety and gradually increase your ability to "stay with" this feeling state, and build in constructive action steps that will interrupt the negative feedback loop between body and brain.

Meghan Hanes (She/Her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

I support adults dealing with anxiety, chronic stress, and feeling constantly on edge. Rather than just managing symptoms, we look at how your nervous system learned to stay in survival mode and work toward more calm, clarity, and confidence in daily life.

Professional Counselor Associate

I specialize in social anxiety and phobia. I use a narrative and mindfulness approach to normalize and limit fears of social engagement.

Lorraine Storm

Licensed Professional Counselor

Anxiety is very common - we all experience it to some degree, but when it keeps you from doing the things that you love and are important to you, a change is needed. It can be a result of over-analyzing or over-thinking situations to the point that it no longer serves you. I will help you “get out of your head” and embrace your inner strength to enjoy the things that are important to you.

Melissa Owens LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, LMHC

I teach emotion-body/mental-pattern awareness, and what to do with that awareness.

Grace Silvia, LCSW (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

How do we find a way to sit with anxiety, when it makes us want to crawl out of our skins? But it's likely desperately trying to protect us on a core level. Can we find a way to have compassion for its desperate work? It can become an ally if we can listen!

Erin Dougherty (She/Her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

I have over 20 years of professional experience in this area. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) , Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Nicole Craig (She/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

I incorporate a mindfulness-based approach to working with anxiety, working to help others change their relationship to their own anxious thoughts. Mindfulness can help us focus on the present moment rather than on feelings of worry or panic, meaning anxious thoughts become temporary, and are no longer viewed as reflections of reality.

Alicia Pasik (She/They)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

At the inpatient crisis center, I had great success in treating adults with anxiety. I incorporate engaging the five senses as grounding techniques for anxiety, and include breath work. I can give you concrete tools to take with you outside of our therapy sessions to assist in treating anxiety.

Laura Peterson

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

I specialize in supporting patients who struggle with anxiety, providing care that is both compassionate and evidence-based. By carefully assessing each individual’s symptoms and triggers, I create personalized treatment plans that may include therapy, medication, or a combination of strategies designed to restore calm and improve daily functioning.

Madison Hollis (She/Her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Anxiety can show up in so many ways—constant worry, restlessness, tension, or feeling on edge for reasons that are hard to name. In our work together, I help you slow down, understand the roots of your anxiety, and develop tools to calm your body and mind. Through mindfulness, self-compassion, and practical strategies, we’ll work toward easing the overwhelm and creating more balance, confidence, and peace in your daily life.

Griffin Oakley (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MSCP, NCC, LMHC, LPC

I work with adults whose anxiety is rooted in trauma, attachment wounds, or nervous system dysregulation — not just situational stress. Understanding where the anxiety is actually coming from, rather than just managing symptoms, is central to how I approach this work.

Bonnie Lambert (she/her)

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

PMHNP-BC, LPC

My first masters program was through Pacific University who's curriculum was primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Major Depressive, and Anxiety disorders like OCB, PTSD, Panic Disorder, Social Phobia to name a few.

Grace Provost (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

MSW, LCSW

I utilize parts work and IFS to explore anxiety and depression as parts of you that aim to protect you from feeling deeper feelings. This is a holistic and gentle approach that is evidence based and works well with a combination of thought based approaches and trauma work, if needed.

Kyla Ludington

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MFT

I help clients understand the roots of their anxiety and support them in building regulation skills through trauma-informed, body-based practices that increase calm, confidence, and clarity.

Sarah Blaszczak, M.A, LMFT (She, her, hers)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

Mind identification can be incredibly painful and stress-inducing. I enjoy helping people inquire into the nature and substance of thought, in order to find peace without the content of thoughts having to change.

Mind Body Therapy Center

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

We use cognitive behavioral therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and psychodynamic therapy to help clients reduce anxiety.

Amanda Roberson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

If you experience anxiety then you are familiar with the uncomfortable sensations (pounding heart, sweating, tingling, muscle tension), racing thoughts, constant worries, concentration difficulties, irritability towards others, and restlessness. There are different subtypes of anxiety, some of which include generalized, social, panic disorder, and various phobias.

Stacy Sheffler (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Anxiety is appearing to be an experience that all are having in this complex, ever changing world. Anxiety can be experienced with your thoughts and in your body. Therapy can aid in reducing the intensity of the anxiety and aid in coping in a way that feels better to you.

Gayle Waitches

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, NCC

Life is challenging. We are bombarded daily with its impact. It makes sense that we would have an anxious part that feels fear or unease. In fact, this part even has wisdom to share. Often when we get to know this worried part more deeply, our system can relax and trust a bit more.

Colleen Burke-Sivers, LPC (She/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

The 21st century seems to be the age of anxiety. There is so much change happening all of the time. We are more aware than ever of the precarious state of the world and of our own human condition. Anxiety can be a useful tool or it can get out of control and be debilitating. I teach people to acknowledge and make sense of their anxiety while at the same time learn how to manage it effectively.

Kate Robinson (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

Anxiety disorders are fairly common but can at times be very uncomfortable and sometimes debilitating. I most often treat individuals with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder. I find that by teaching clients about Cognitive Distortions, behavioral coping strategies, mindfulness techniques, and stress reduction techniques, anxiety symptoms can be managed.

Rachel Hirsch (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, LMHC, MS

Through depth work, I support clients in addressing root causes of their anxiety for long-term growth and change. I utilize brief Psychodynamic/Relational Therapy, sometimes integrating CBT and Mindfulness techniques.

Caty Buckley (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

As someone who has starggled with anxiety in my life, this has always been a strength of mine, since I can easily get into the brains of anxious clients. Additionally, I have attended countless trainings and have many tools to provide clients to work with their anxiety. I strive to approach anxiety as a part of the client and not a villain but more something to be understood and managed.

Sophie Toolanen (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

My experience using DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) has made me skilled at the application of Mindfulness, Distraction, and Mood Regulation strategies to manage anxious ruminations, dissociation, concentration struggles, and ineffective or self-harming behaviors you may be engaging in to cope with fear or overwhelm.

Michelle Shelton (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

EDD, MA

My doctoral research was on stress, anxiety, and burnout. I have a deep passion for working with those who have anxiety whether it is from work, family, COVID, school, or other reasons.

Heidi Savell (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

Anxiety can be overwhelming and impacts all areas of a person's life. I will work with you at your pace to help you identify and reconnect with the things most important to you, while also supporting you in letting go of whatever may be getting in the way of experiencing more ease.

Jennifer Wohl, MA, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

When we experience anxiety, it can feel like our nervous system is on chronic 'high alert.' This can be frustrating, exhausting, and disruptive. Using mindfulness, self-soothing techniques, breathing exercises, and deep exploration, we will get to the root of anxiety so you can calm and soothe your nervous system and fully enjoy your life.

Erin Needham (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

Anxiety is often more than racing thoughts or nervous energy — it can be the voice of deeper parts of us that haven’t been fully heard. My work invites a gentle exploration of the roots beneath the restlessness: early patterns, internal pressures, relational dynamics. Together we listen for the meaning inside the symptoms, and work toward cultivating presence, safety, and inner coherence.

Julia Perretta (She/Her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

I utilize IFS- based approaches, mindfulness based interventions, DBT, and somatic methods to help individuals manage and overcome triggers for anxiety.

Katie Clark, LMHC, LPC (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

NCC

Methods of treatment used are evidence-based, supported by research, and by the American Psychological Association (APA). Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Exposure and Response Prevention are the most scientifically supported methods of treating anxiety, so are the main methods I use in working with clients.

Sakura Counseling (She/He/They)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Healthy anxiety keeps us stay alert, tune into our surroundings, and does not interfere with our lives. Unhealthy anxiety is present even if there is not a perceived threat. It disrupts your life, & creates isolation. We firmly believe that you are unique, deserve a plan that is realistic, & will result in the highest level of recovery. Our clinic offers effective anxiety support through therapy, coping strategies, and personalized guidance, helping you regain control and find relief.

Ronald L Johnson

Licensed Professional Counselor

Mindfulness meditation practices help us to become more aware of emotional intelligence in the present moment and allow us to be less involved in dwelling on past trauma or future worries, even as we become able to make plans for our lives more clearly.

Arah Erickson (she/her/hers)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, NCC

Anxiety can show up differently throughout our lives. Life transitions, age, stress, specific events can all impact it's intensity. Sometimes we don't immediately recognize the part our anxiety is playing in our life challenges. I believe that it is important to understand the shape and nature of your anxiety, and to learn specific techniques that support you in moving through it when it gets in your way, as well as to build compassion for yourself and your experience of anxiety.

Matthew McCullough (He/His, They/Their)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

I offer instruction in using mindfulness and somatic techniques to help create room around anxiety to allow for greater flexibility in one's life. I have extensive knowledge of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which is a modern approach to getting back to a life worth living so that anxiety no longer runs the show.

Eryn Keller-Arndt (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

I have completed course work and training in treatment of anxiety, along with having years of experience in treatment of anxiety disorders.

Karel Chan

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, LMHC

Anxiety is the mind's way of trying to achieve peace and safety using thoughts and intellect to exert control, find solutions, and fix what's "wrong." The problem with this is that very few things require solutions, or are actually "wrong" or truly within our control. Peace and safety, though, are innate human needs, so the journey is learning to step away from thinking and into a space of courageously being with feelings of fear and unrest, building an inner strength and wisdom that we trust.

Kristine Zappa (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

I like to approach anxiety as an overactive alarm system in the brain and body. By processing the signals deeply felt in the body and nervous system, sometimes even before they turn into thoughts, folks can gain more clarity and achieve a felt sense of "safe enough". I will also help provide tools in order to help you navigate your nervous system and lead a more balanced life.

Rick Schultz (he/him)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, LMFT

Developing and refining your coping skills to better manage your worry is important but therapy is also a space to help you discover the underlying triggers which interfere with your ability to respond and think in healthier ways. Exploring and identifying the origins of your anxiety helps to ensure that these underlying issues can be addressed so problems don’t resurface in different ways or in different areas of your life. I'm committed to providing you more than just a Band-Aid.

Gabrielle Knight (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, SEP

Anxiety can feel debilitating! I have experience helping clients process experiences contributing to anxiety as well as develop tools and skills to help them feel more like themselves.

Emma Stern-Fleege (she/her/hers)

Licensed Professional Counselor

C7542

Anxiety is a mental and physical response to stress that can become overwhelming and all consuming. Anxiety often shows up physically as rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, chest and throat tension, or challenges feeling grounded or steady in one’s body. Mentally it can show up as spiraling and worst case scenario thought patterns, intrusive worries, or dread. Chronic anxiety can lead to stress, fear, avoidance, and limit one's quality of life and enjoyment.

HEATHER MATHEWSON (She/Her/Hers)

Lynne Coon

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

Often you can fall into letting anxiety be in charge of you and don't realize you can be in charge of it. I provide tools to help you address your anxiety in the short term then we'll work to identify the underlying causes. Once we know the triggers we can develop a plan to reduce or eliminate them.

Wild Wish Counseling (she/her)

Laura Birchard (she/ her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC, CADCI

Anxiety is rarely just one thing—it feels like everything. It may start with racing thoughts or physical symptoms like a pounding heart or a tight chest. Anxiety can be profoundly unraveling, striking at the core and spiraling through layers of biology and spirit. Though deeply disruptive, it can also serve as a compass, pointing toward what needs attention and care. Reach out today for a free consultation.

KELLY Strider (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CADC III

Every client of mine is experiencing stress and/or anxiety to the extent that their quality of life is being eroded. How can one not be, in this day and age? Through reflective and relational psychotherapy, I not only work with clients on coping skills, but how to still find joy and meaning in the midst of hardship.

jane Newman

Licensed Professional Counselor

Having worked extensively in the area of grief and loss, anxiety is often a presenting symptom; working with clients to identify source of anxiety and either illuminate skills they have or help them find identify/learn skills to regulate the anxiety is part of the therapy process.

Pearl Waldorf (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, MSed, LPC

An activated Nervous System can make satisfying engagement with others nearly impossible. My anxiety clients may feel confused about why you struggle as you do. When asked about your history, it's likely you'll say you had good parents. Parents who provided you with everything you needed. I dig deeper with my clients to understand, what may have been missing and to begin filling in the gaps.

Margarita Sandoval (she/ella)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MS LPC

I have experience on treating symptoms of anxiety. I focus mainly on providing skills that will help my clients manage anticipatory thoughts, identifying triggers and using logic to decrease automatic negative thoughts.

Kellie Collins, MS, LPC

Jami Howell

Anxiety issues are very common and can include panic attacks, obsessive thinking, compulsive behaviors, constant worrying, and irrational fears. Anxiety often goes hand in hand with depression. I work with people with all of these struggles and any other anxiety issues.

Gabi Villaseñor (She/Her)

Professional Counselor Associate

M.A. in Professional Mental Health Counseling

Ecological grief and climate anxiety are two very real stressors that contribute to many peoples experiences of the natural world today. It can be debilitating and stressful to work on these existential issues alone. I'm very passionate about this work. I've received eco-therapy training as part of my graduate studies at Lewis and Clark college and am currently part of Dr. Thomas Doherty's cohort workshop on "Eco and Climate Therapy Consult Group Training course."

Tatum Marcus

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

I see emotions as messengers that carry valuable information that you can use to inform your decisions in life. Rather than try to change emotions, my hope would be to create a container where we can listen to their innate intelligence. Once emotions are seen and heard, they have a way of returning to balance.

Erin Davis (They/Them)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

L8580

Since starting in social work in 2013 I have worked with countless people with mild to severe anxiety. Anxiety often stems from deeply held, negative, subconscious beliefs we have about ourselves and from traumatic or challenging experiences in our past. From excessive worry, restlessness, trouble with leaving the house and being social, to difficulty stopping fearful and negative thinking; I have had the privilege to witness and support people on their journey towards peace and healing.

Vinnie Gwozdz (He/Him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CRC, MS

Politics and Covid and wildfires and social/racial reckonings are just a few of the macro-level issues we're all dealing with on top of our own individual life-stresses and anxieties. The human condition has only gotten more complex in today's world (to say nothing of Social Media) and working together to process the ways anxiety can be helped and balanced can be one of the most helpful components of therapy .

Beth Bogdon (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Sometimes worries about life events, social situations, or general worry impact how a person lives their day to day life and I will work with you to move towards personal values with self-compassion.

Sarah Hardin (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, LMFT

Anxiety is our brain's way of trying to 'do something' to change a hard situation, but it often results in us simply treading water (or barely even staying afloat), and it can be debilitating. Together we will brave the waters and calm that impulse to help you actually be able to find your center and go with the flow.

Tiffany Butler (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

I have worked with adults experiencing generalized anxiety, panic attacks and social anxiety. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we examine the thoughts behind their worries and fears, finding ways to reduce and better manage their symptoms.

Erik Lee (he/him)

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

PMHNP-BC

I provide diagnostic evaluations and medication management for adults with anxiety disorders, or who suspect they may have anxiety disorders. These include generalized anxiety, social anxiety, phobias, illness anxiety, and obsessive compulsive disorders.

Garrison Cox (he/him)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Master of Arts in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy

Anxiety is a primary driving force of our nervous systems. It's a necessary survival mechanism, but one that all too often feels like it's overflowing past its usefulness. I've experienced that kind of anxiety, and I had the benefit of somatic and Polyvagal Theory-focused therapy to help me adapt. Now I offer that same kind of therapy.

Salomeya Sobko (she/they)

Clinical Social Work Associate

CSWA, LSWAIC

DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and Somatic Therapy are some of the approaches that can help address and reduce the distress caused by anxiety.

Nate Wilson-Traisman

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

Anxiety is a normal human reaction to stress, but it can become problematic when it gets in the way of our goals, ambitions, and day-to-day needs. I use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness practice to identify negative thoughts/judgments of our anxiety experience, and to regain control of how our body reacts to anxiety.

Sean Robertson (He/him)

Clinical Psychologist Resident

PsyD

There is an infinite amount of rational life experiences to be wary and careful of. To many people, that reality I just mentioned is overwhelming. It can cause a person to become increasingly preoccupied with preparing for a future that may be threatening in some way or form. And the justifiable, understandable response to that is anxiety. The trick, I believe, is understanding your need to protect yourself and those you care about while balancing ways to relieve your need to protect.

Leslie Jones

Licensed Professional Counselor

I have many years of experience working with the distress of anxiety and worry. It can feel tiresome and paralyzing to be gripped with worry, even when your logical brain wants to tell you "let it go." There is a ton of advice out there on how to reduce anxiety. Much of it is good! But sometimes you need to find a supportive space to express the worry, and look at ways to alleviate its hold. There are many techniques that can be helpful, and we can being exploring those together.

Eileen Summit (She/Her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

I have supported many women dealing with anxiety. I am supportive of a multifocal appoach, including 'talk' therapy, CBT, developing coping skills, and medical interventions, as needed.

Jessica Powers

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC (OR), LMHC (WA), CADC-II (OR)

People with anxiety may feel nervous or “on edge,” worry a lot, and avoid doing things that make their anxiety worse. They may have physical symptoms, such as a racing heart, upset stomach, and sweating or shaking. Many of these also often cause difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or both. I help people learn coping skills and other lifestyle habits that help them feel less anxious.

Elizabeth Olsen (She/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

M.A.

I see anxiety as signal to stop and understand what is going on, and that it is something to understand and not fear. I love working with teens and young adults on examining underlying thoughts and behaviors and contribute to anxiety and aiding them in learning coping skills to overcome these issues.

Gil Gutierrez (He/Him)

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

BC-PMHNP

I believe in thinking outside the box when it comes to what is actually happening physiologically when you feel anxious. Instead of just reaching for the "standard" scripts, I often explore medications that may not be the first thought for most providers, but offer evidence-based relief without the common side effects of traditional anti-anxiety meds.

Eric Abelow Blakeley (he/him)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW

Anxiety is nearly ubiquitous in navigating the complexities of everyday life. A small degree of anxiety can be motivating while too much anxiety is incapacitating. Anxiety also takes up a great deal of energy. The goal of treatment over time is to become more flexible inside and to find new ways of relating to the emotional meanings that constitute the basis of the anxiety.

Celine Redfield

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

MA, LMFT, Certified Havening Practitioner, EFT Master, Practitioner

I love to help individuals who are having difficulty resolving anxiety and trauma. I help clients to reinhabit their bodies and help clients to change thought patterns and move energy that is stuck.

Allison Amo MA, LPC (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

If you are struggling with feelings of anxiety, panic attacks, or stress that feels unmanageable, counseling can provide an opportunity to not only learn new ways of coping and managing the anxiety and stress, but also offers you a space to gain insight into patterns that are keeping you stuck, and ultimately, bring healing and wholeness to yourself.

Caretia Silva (she/her/hers)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, LICSW

I have extensive training in working with anxiety in all ages. Somatic experiencing is also an amazing approach to working with anxiety that goes beyond just managing anxiety and instead promotes healing.

Tiffany Del Pozo (She/her)

Brittany Neighbours (she/her/hers)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

I approach anxiety holistically and address the connection between thoughts, behaviors, emotions, and physical sensations. I use several techniques, including but not limited to cognitive restructuring, exposure, mindfulness, emotional awareness and acceptance, increasing tolerance of uncertainty, and addressing avoidance.

Zach Meints (he/him)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

LCSW, MSW

I provide structured CBT treatment to address the beliefs, behaviors and relational issues and underlying trauma that can perpetuate anxiety. CBT is considered the "gold standard" in evidence based treatments and often starts to bring palpable relief within the first treatment session.

Xan Scott (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

QMHP

Anxiety is usually spinning thoughts, and if we notice and get up and do something that includes bilateral stimulation, it can easily shift, and we find ourselves more and more in the moment, living life.

Josh Clark (he/him)

Clinical Psychologist

PhD, ABPP-CN

Anxiety, panic, and phobias can be suffocating. You may feel tense, preoccupied with worry, or experience an elevated heart rate, upset stomach, chronic pain, or headaches. These issues arise when our nervous system goes on overdrive and our body doesn’t distinguish between actual threats and imagined threats. I use evidence-based practices to help you break free from the control of anxiety.

Liz Powers Wells

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

I work with anxiety, especially in young people who feel overwhelmed by the fast pace and pressure of today’s world. Many of my clients quietly worry about things like the climate, politics, and survival, and often feel this stress in their bodies before they can even name it. I help them slow down, notice their feelings, and find simple, steady ways to protect their peace. In therapy, their sensitivity is not a weakness but something valuable that deserves respect and care.

Amanda Lowrey (she/her/hers)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

MA

Learn to accept anxiety all the while working to change it! I often work with clients to explore how they feel, the roots of the obstacle, and understand their ineffective thoughts / behaviors through evidence-based modalities, while determining effective coping mechanisms. As well, I often incorporate mindfulness-based interventions to aid in resolving stress, overwhelm, and panic stored in the body.

Alex Bistroi

Licensed Professional Counselor

I often work with clients using EFT-based “empty chair” and/or “two-chair” techniques; these techniques are evidence-based and have demonstrated decrease in depression, anxiety, combating perfectionist tendencies, and improved ability to respond to self-criticism with self-compassion.

Gillian Sleeman

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

My private practice has focused on helping adults find the tools and the strength to manage the often overwhelming stress and anxiety that comes from the busy and demanding lives that we lead as well as anxiety that may be the result of loss, life transitions or stressful relationships.

Svetlana Thompson (She/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

M.Ed,M.A, LPC-A

My years of professional experience working with young individuals, along with my personal experience as a parent of children who have experienced anxiety and ADHD, inspired me to deepen my understanding of these challenges and explore effective therapeutic approaches to support healing and growth. This journey led me to integrate both EMDR and IFS (Internal Family Systems) as major approaches in my work with anxiety, ADHD, and emotional regulation.

Tracy Shadle (she/her)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

I support adults working with anxiety, especially when it shows up as overthinking, perfectionism, overwhelm, reactivity, or difficulty feeling settled in daily life.

Therapy focuses on understanding patterns that fuel anxiety and developing sustainable ways to reduce intensity and feel balanced.

Beverley Duke-Young (she/her)

Probably one of the most common complaints expressed by people today which can range from a long-term condition to a situation in your life where there just doesn't seem to be enough time to manage all your responsibilities in a balanced way, feeling a sense of well-being rather than a constant state of stress. I rely on a number of therapeutic approaches to help you find a healthier way to live.

Sonia Holdaway (she/her)

In a society that prizes individual strength, it can be hard to open up with others. Your therapist should be someone with whom you feel comfortable sharing your toughest anxieties, and who genuinely cares about your experience. My goal is to help you feel accepted & supported when talking about your struggles, and to help guide you through to the other side - to feeling capable and in control of your own experience.

Anxiety and anxiety disorders can easily overwhelm us and steal our joy from our day-to-day lives. While we can rarely make our anxiety disappear entirely, there are effective ways to quiet and calm our minds and our hearts so we can focus on the things that matter most.

Liam Woods (he/him)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

Masters In Counseling

Anxiety is the embodiment of fear—a signal from our body that we are experiencing a lack of safety. Working with anxiety in the body provides a deeper, more nuanced understanding of what needs to be addressed, whether it’s nervous system healing, trauma, relationship conflict, or the impact of excessive technology. For me, anxiety has been a generational inheritance and a lifelong practice of discerning where to make changes in my life and where to work through fear in order to recognize safety.

Johanna Courtleigh

Licensed Professional Counselor

Everything is frequency. Ideally, our minds and bodies are a harmonious place for us to reside in. However, for many of us, stress has become an energetic habitual pattern. Healing is the process of learning how to bring compassion to our suffering, and cultivating techniques for self-soothing, so we can calm and nurture ourselves in times of stress--thus lessening anxiety, distress, fear.

Kylie Westberg (she/her)

Student Counselor

When working with anxiety I promote an environment that gives you control over your healing. No matter the emotion, I believe it is a valuable tool that tells us something about ourselves. By honoring and processing anxiety I help support people achieve long lasting change. Your anxiety does not have to control your life!

Shannon Garcia (she/her)

Everyone experiences anxiety on some level from time to time. When anxiety affects day to day functioning, or when you want to change how you relate to it, it's time for some support. I have worked with folks across most of the life span to create space to lessen the severity of anxiety through art therapy and somatically.

Michael Crockett

Anxiety can show up in a variety of ways: physically (eg. restlessness, fatigue), mentally (eg. racing thoughts, constant worry), and behaviorally (eg. avoiding places or activities, compulsions). Anxiety disorders manifest in characteristic ways that can often be addressed directly utilizing cognitive-behavioral methods of treatment without the need for medication.

Jeff Guenther (he/him)

Anxiety is the issue that I treat the most in my practice. I provide my clients with tools and techniques that they can carry with them for the rest of their lives and pull from whenever they feel anxious.

Aaron Kelsay (he / him)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC, CADC I

"Anxiety" was something I experienced as "normal" until I started to put it into words. It was through my own healing journey that I realized there are other ways to be, think, and feel -- imagine if you could "let your guard down," enjoy every moment, and embrace what's coming. Through a combination of cognitive, somatic, and story-based interventions, you can move towards a more balanced, less anxious, more enjoyable way of being in the world.

Anxiety might be the most common problem I have helped people overcome. I also have some familiarity, as I have suffered from an anxiety disorder myself.

Emily Berry (they/them)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

We all experience anxiety to some degree. Anxiety is a natural reaction to feeling unsafe or uncertain, and it often escalates when we aren't trusting ourselves in those fears. Sometimes we get trapped in a cycle of anxiety, and it feels impossible to break free. In therapy we work to make sense of the roots of your anxiety, as you learn to tolerate, manage, and alleviate some of that discomfort through finding a real sense of self-trust, wholeness, and clarity.

Melanie Ahlf (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

Please see my profile for my background in treating anxiety disorders. Building tolerance to discomfort creates confidence. Facing avoidance builds evidence of your ability to overcome anxiety rather than reenforcing it.

Robin Bodhi (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA

I help clients understand and heal the root causes of anxiety through a somatic and trauma-informed lens. Anxiety is often a signal from a dysregulated nervous system. Using mindfulness, body-based tools, and nervous system regulation, I support clients in calming their inner world, building resilience, and reconnecting with a felt sense of safety, clarity, and confidence in daily life.

Gina DeLeo (she/her)

Marriage and Family Therapist Associate

M.A.

In my experience, anxiety is almost always a symptom of another issue, one that perhaps remains beneath consciousness. Anxiety is often accompanied by feelings of shame or not being good enough. We will work together to expand awareness, track patterns that may be constricting you, and gently help you find healthy and compassionate ways to relate to yourself and those you love.

Katie Kotsovos (she/her)

I help clients understand and overcome anxiety using a blend of evidence-based & trauma-informed approaches. Anxiety can take many forms - chronic worry, panic, social fears, or physical tension - and often reflect both current stress and deeper emotional patterns. I use a blend of approach that best meets the needs of the client including CBT, EMDR, IFS, ACT, & psychodynamic theory. These help to increase self-awareness, and support lasting emotional growth.

Tiffany Barr (she/her)

Francis Aurora Otto (she | her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC, RSMT/E

The body let's us know how it's doing through feelings of anxiety, fear, and panic. By learning how to attend to and care for these feelings, we can re-pattern how we respond to the circumstances of our life, which are often unpredictable. Empathy and body attunement are the tools we use here.

Erin Carney Moline (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

LPC

I believe that the experience of anxiety is one of disconnection; we have lost our connection to the ability to calm and make sense of life in all its glory and difficulty. I work with yoga, mindfulness, meditation, relaxation, and the processing of difficult experiences and emotions to mitigate the effects of anxiety.

Margaret McNeal (she/her)

Professional Counselor Associate

MA

I help clients understand anxiety as meaningful information rather than something to simply eliminate. Together, we explore the emotional and relational patterns beneath anxiety and develop greater calm, resilience, and self-trust.

I work with those experiencing anxiety in its many forms, whether it shows up as persistent worry, perfectionism, or tension. My integrative approach integrates attachment theory and Mindful Self-Compassion along with other modalities to help you relate to anxiety with a greater sense of awareness and understanding.

Luke Colbourn (he/him/his)

Licensed Professional Counselor

MA, LPC

Anxiety is an expression of a nervous system that expects something bad to happen. For our ancestors, this might have come up briefly when confronted by a predator, and then resolve when they escaped (or didn't). Today, we live with lots of sources of abstract threat (what do my peers think of me? am I doing well enough at work/school?) and more immediate threat (is it safe to go outside my home?). These stressors add up. I work with clients to help create a sense of safety and ease.

Donna Prinzmetal (she/her)

Licensed Marriage Family Therapist

Gaining an understanding of where the anxiety comes from can be helpful but isn't always enough. I work with clients to increase their emotional sense of safety and self assurance. We also work on strategies to better deal with anxiety-provoking situations.

Kaijah Bjorklund (she/her)

Licensed Professional Counselor

Nationally Certified Counselor

Anxiety can feel overwhelming and all-consuming. What if there were a better way to manage your anxiety instead of it managing you? There is. Though humans have a natural stress response, sometimes it can become so overwhelming that it becomes paralyzing. Therapy for anxiety helps you get in tune with your natural stress responses and get anxiety under control. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety and related disorders using a variety of evidence based techniques including EMDR.

Together we will work to acknowledge and demystify the anxious mind, find stability and coping through grounding, behavioral and mindfulness exercises, and move towards valued action and balance.

Gia Buckberg

Anxiety can be a normal reaction to change, an anticipated event or other life stressors. When anxiety escalates, however, it can become disruptive & unsettling, affecting our sleep, physical health, relationships and overall well-being. I use mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help clients reduce anxiety and increase balance, while also exploring/resolving the underlying causes

Joyce Yuan

Anxiety is the unpleasant experience of excessive worry, fear, and stress that can interfere with daily activities and your ability to rest/relax. Anxiety can manifest in repetitive thoughts and acute physical symptoms, such as heart-racing and difficulty breathing. I have had success treating anxiety with a combination of relaxation, problem-solving, and graded exposure exercises.

Brandt Hueser

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Anxiety can be a normal coping mechanism to help people deal with a variety of stressors. However, if anxiety becomes excessive and/or interferes with your daily functioning, you may need to see a therapist. Therapy can provide you the tools and insights to deal with anxiety. EMDR, mindfulness- based therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy are all useful practices that I use to treat anxiety.

Danette Gillespie

Licensed Clinical Social Worker

Anxiety can plague our lives, making it difficult to function. I specialize in connecting with the parts of ourselves that are living in conscious or unconscious fear, bringing care and compassion to these parts.
