Anxiety is one of the most common presenting problems for people coming into therapy. Work pressures, families and relationships, reading the news, and the dumpster fire that is social media can all be sources of stress. For folks with anxiety, severe stress can trigger anything from rumination and worry to panic attacks.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a psychologist specializing in anxiety treatment, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to create a comprehensive structure of support and healing. I draw upon principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how anxiety activates our nervous systems, and how our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences all work together to help and hinder our ability to manage. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.

Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Anxiety and fear can show up as consistent worry, restlessness, or a sense of being on edge. These responses are often rooted in the mind and body’s effort to anticipate and protect against perceived threats. Together, we can better understand these patterns, gently challenge what may no longer serve you, and develop ways to feel more steady and at ease.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In my practice, I help patients struggling with anxiety and fears by utilizing a comprehensive and personalized approach tailored to their unique needs. I begin with a thorough assessment to understand the specific sources and impact of their anxiety. Education is provided to help patients recognize anxiety triggers and understand the physiological responses involved. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is employed to address negative thought patterns and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Mindfulness and relaxation techniques are taught to enhance self-awareness and reduce stress. Exposure therapy is used to gradually desensitize patients to their fears in a controlled and supportive environment. I also offer strategies for improving emotional regulation and building resilience. Family involvement is encouraged to create a supportive network, and a strength-based approach is used to build confidence and empowerment. Ongoing support and follow-up ensure continuous progress and adjustment of therapeutic strategies. This comprehensive approach aims to empower patients to manage their anxiety effectively, overcome their fears, and lead more fulfilling lives.

Anxiety can feel debilitating, like a never ending loop that you are continuously stuck on. I am here to work with you in helping you learn and understand your anxiety, and what purpose it serves for you. Having anxiety does not mean you are broken. Anxiety is a bunch of signals going off that is bringing your awareness to something that your mind wants to pay attention to, and we can navigate this together. There are ways to help make it manageable and to help get control back of your life and I want to go on that journey with you.
