Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Living with anxiety can turn even the simplest of daily tasks into daunting challenges. What might seem effortless to others can trigger intense worry, restlessness, and even emotional paralysis for those grappling with anxiety. Whether you've inherited a genetic predisposition to anxiety from your family or have been thrust into this state due to uncontrollable life circumstances, the struggle is real. It could even be a blend of various factors contributing to your anxiety. But regardless of its origins, there are effective methods to alleviate anxiety, regain a sense of self-control, cope with everyday hardships, and confront difficult situations with confidence.
As a licensed psychologist, I wield one of my profession's most potent tools: the ability to teach you how to harness the immense potential of your mind to reshape your responses to life's twists and turns. My specialized training in neuropsychology, EMDR, clinical hypnosis, and somatic techniques equips me to offer profound assistance to those battling anxiety. I employ meditation, mindfulness, guided imagery, breathwork, and visualization to guide you in quelling your symptoms and taking charge of your anxiety. Furthermore, I delve into the underlying negative thoughts and core beliefs that may be fueling your anxiety, arming you with invaluable self-empowerment tools to navigate your inner experiences and minimize suffering.
Anxiety is a multifaceted adversary, encompassing various forms such as Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, Social Anxiety, Phobias, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Most frequently, it manifests as chronic worry and fear, casting a shadow over every aspect of life. Nonetheless, with the right therapeutic strategies, I can guide you towards seizing control of your thoughts, conquering your anxiety, and embracing a life brimming with serenity and happiness.

Danielle Keys at Headway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
Many things in life can trigger anxiety or fear. Often times, it is hard for individuals to pinpoint it's origin and sometimes there is no exact thing to point to. I assist clients to learn about their internal world- thoughts, feelings, actions, and most importantly bodily experiences that are often not noticed. Anxiety starts from the inside-out. We will use Mindfulness, Progressive Muscle Relaxation, and learning about how emotions impact our body's response to things in the environment. We must distinguish between what's in one's control and what is not.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anxiety makes us scatter-brained, irritated, annoyed, edgy, overwhelmed, and so much more. We get frustrated with anxiety and we get anxiety about having anxiety. Let's identify the ways anxiety shows up for you and how we can address this. It's not about fixing it or making it go away but rather about learning how to cope with it when it arises. We can actually decrease the intensity over time but we cannot expect it to be "cured." You are enough. You are not your anxiety.

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.

Anxiety can present in a number of ways, including worrying thoughts about several areas of life, rumination, physical tension and restlessness, sleep difficulty/insomnia, mind going blank, and avoidance. Feelings of anxiety can make daily tasks seem overwhelming, leading to doubtful decision making, difficulty performing your best, or interference with the things you care about most. I utilized evidence-based practices designed to treat anxiety and fears, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness methods. My therapeutic style includes values driven skill development, supportive therapy, behavioral experiments, and coping strategies to help adults manage worry and overcome fears.

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.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
"Worry," "nervousness," "fear," "bad nerves," "stress"? Anxiety can mean many things to many different people. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation that seemingly come randomly and without clear explanations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

Gemstone Wellness, Inc.
Psychologist, PsyD, LCPC, LCSW, LPC
At Gemstone Wellness, anxiety is not treated as something to simply “manage” or suppress—it is understood as a meaningful signal shaped by your nervous system, your history, and the environments you’ve had to adapt to. Rather than focusing only on symptom reduction, therapy begins by helping you understand why your anxiety exists and what it has been trying to protect.
Our approach is grounded in nervous system regulation and trauma-informed care. Many clients come in feeling overwhelmed by racing thoughts, chronic worry, panic, or a persistent sense of unease. We work collaboratively to slow these patterns down—helping you recognize triggers, understand the mind-body connection, and build the capacity to respond rather than react. Over time, this creates a greater sense of stability, clarity, and internal safety.
Treatment is not one-size-fits-all. We integrate a range of approaches—including cognitive and behavioral strategies, mindfulness, body-based awareness, and trauma-focused work—while remaining flexible to your needs, pace, and preferences. Tools are offered thoughtfully, not prescriptively, so that therapy feels supportive rather than overwhelming or performative.
Importantly, we recognize that anxiety is often rooted in deeper experiences: trauma, identity-based stress, cultural expectations, loss, or longstanding patterns of self-protection. Therapy at Gemstone Wellness makes space for these layers. We move beyond surface-level coping into insight—helping you untangle the beliefs, experiences, and relational patterns that keep anxiety in place.
The work is both practical and relational. You will gain tools to navigate moments of distress, but you will also develop a different relationship with yourself—one grounded in self-trust rather than fear. As that shift happens, anxiety often softens, not because it is forced away, but because it is no longer carrying the same burden alone.
