Anxiety therapists in Center City, Pennsylvania PA
Brian Swope
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety and fear are completely normal feelings/experiences, but when the mind and body are regularly/constantly on alert, anxiety and fear can be crippling. Whether there is emotional work to do around this or cognitive behavior work and trauma focused therapy, anxiety and fear can be lessened and made manageable.

Kerry Hill
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA
Anxiety is one of the most common mental health issues today, and this is no surprise. Being a human isn't easy; positive and negative experiences from our past inform the way we navigate the world. We also live in a society that values productivity, competition, and individualism. We are taught to measure our worth by what we have produced and achieved, and the pressure to meet these standards causes us to doubt ourselves. I believe we should set our own goals, pursue joy, and nurture our strengths if we want to overcome anxiety and find tranquility. And despite its prevalence, anxiety is highly treatable using a wide variety of approaches.

Bloom & Thrive
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CCTP
The world is straight-up a scary place right now, with uncertainty, political unrest, climate change, just everything. So in therapy, we work to validate what we can actually do about all of it and find a way to balance accepting that some amount of anxiety is inevitable, while still living life in a way that feels authentic and full.

Johanna Isaacs
Psychologist, Psy.D., PsyPACT Participant
I help clients with anxiety identify their fear and worry patterns, understand where these thoughts may have come from in their lives, and create new ways of thinking that are more balanced and supportive. Creating anxiety management tools that help reduce physical anxiety symptoms in the moment means that my clients build realistic and useful coping strategies that help them feel better when anxiety peaks. We cannot eliminate anxiety or fear from our life but we can learn to understand our anxiety as a piece of us and ultimately appreciate who we are as a whole person.

Katherine Paul
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What are the anxious thoughts or feelings that cause you the most distress? Shining light on difficult feelings and understanding where they come from can lesson the distress. My role is to be a supportive presence, as well as an analytical one, in order to develop new ways of coping with anxiety and fear.

Michelle Bloom, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD, PsyPact
None of us is immune to anxiety and I believe we need a certain amount of anxiety in order to get out of bed each morning and to push ourselves to meet all that we have to accomplish in a given day. Balance, however, is essential. Too much anxiety immobilizes and stymies us, but too little can also create complications for motivation, productivity, goal-setting, and self-esteem.
