Are you overwhelmed, stressed out, and unhappy? Does it feel like no matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to be happy? Are you struggling with feeling sad and anxious all the time?
Many individuals experience some variation of anxiety or anxious symptoms. Some people have managed their symptoms and it hasn’t been an issue; until it is. The question is how debilitating it is, how it is handled and resolved.
You can expect that therapy will include an exploration to understand the specific symptoms you experience as well as a timeline of the onset of symptoms. It may be something you remember being a problem from since day 1, or it may have started following a difficult time in your life, where it was overwhelming and stressful to cope with day to day life. We will work to uncover the source of the thoughts that lead you to feel the way you do.
Oftentimes, you may also be experiencing what feels like depression, which it might be. Sometimes though, anxious feelings can actually propel and create depressive symptoms. You may also be experiencing difficulty with your self-esteem. Self-esteem affects relationships, motivation, and often is a significant symptom in individuals with anxiety and depression.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidenced based treatment which explores the connection between thoughts, feelings and behavior. We can rewire the brain and disconnect from having a negative default setting, and create new pathways with positive self-talk and specific steps to reach your goals. Many of my clients share that they have been able to feel a significant shift in their mindset through utilizing CBT and clearly state that therapy has changed their life.

Dr. Paige Hover
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety can really be disruptive, making it hard to sleep, hard to eat, hard to focus, etc. Sometimes the worry can get out of hand and make you avoid things or impact your relationships with others and feel all consuming. Anxiety is tricky too because it can sometimes feel helpful, especially for a perfectionist who did well in school or is recognized for their dedication at work. Together we can better understand what you are anxious about. I can teach you how to deal with anxiety based on a deeper understanding of yourself for more successful long term mental health management.

South Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
South Psychology, based in Centennial, Colorado, specializes in providing evidence-based mental health therapy for individuals dealing with anxiety or fears. Their skilled clinicians employ a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP). Let’s delve into the details:
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): ERP is a powerful technique used to treat anxiety disorders, particularly obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It aims to gradually reduce anxiety by exposing individuals to triggering stimuli or thoughts in a safe and controlled environment. Through repeated exposure, people become less physiologically aroused by these triggers, leading to habituation. The response prevention component teaches clients not to give in to compulsive behaviors, ultimately breaking the cycle of anxiety and avoidance.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): South Psychology integrates CBT principles to help clients understand and manage their anxious thoughts. By identifying cognitive distortions and challenging irrational beliefs, individuals learn healthier coping strategies. CBT equips them with practical tools to navigate anxiety-inducing situations, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall well-being.
Optimizing Functioning: Beyond symptom reduction, South Psychology focuses on optimizing various aspects of life. Whether it’s excelling in school, advancing in a career, or nurturing social connections, their approach aims to empower clients to thrive despite anxiety or fears.
