Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From the perspective of Somatic Experiencing, anxiety can be a fight/flight response that hasn't fully settled. It can leave you with a feeling that something isn't quite right, and then your mind starts searching for reasons to feel that way. It's a vicious cycle.
We can work together to find ways to help your body 'complete' the unsettled fight/flight response so you can actually feel safer and more settled. Now your mind will be fresh and clear and better able to assess the situation and decide on a effective course of action.

Hypnotherapy for Anxiety & Fears: Reclaim Your Calm and Confidence
Anxiety and fear can feel overwhelming—like a constant weight on your chest, a racing mind that won’t slow down, or an unshakable sense of worry. But you don’t have to stay trapped in the cycle of overthinking, panic, or self-doubt.
Hypnotherapy offers a powerful, natural way to quiet the mind, release fear-based patterns, and regain control over your thoughts and emotions. Through guided hypnosis, you can:
✔ Reduce Stress & Overwhelm – Learn to relax deeply and shift your mind from fear to calm.
✔ Overcome Phobias & Unwanted Fears – Reprogram the subconscious to replace fear with confidence.
✔ Break Free from Negative Thought Loops – Release intrusive worries and regain peace of mind.
✔ Increase Inner Strength & Resilience – Develop powerful coping strategies to handle challenges with ease.
Your mind is capable of change, and through hypnotherapy, you can retrain it to embrace calm, clarity, and confidence.
Take the first step toward a more peaceful, fearless life—schedule a session today!

Anxiety has a way of making everything feel urgent and high-stakes.

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.

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.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are suffering from anxiety, I can help! Anxiety keeps us from living a full life, it can badly effect our performance and pays a toll on our body. Many people become so used to their anxiety that they may think it not a symptom, but rather their personality. For this reason, they may even resist change because it doesn't feel authentic to their personality. Fortunately I have many tools and skills to address your anxiety and help you quite your anxious thoughts so you can hear, feel, and experience who you really are without anxiety calling the shots.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Anxiety and fears involve intolerance of uncertainty and thoughts of worst-case-scenario predictions. Avoiding and escaping situations and the physical and emotional feelings only make anxiety worse. CBT is an empirically-validated, effective treatment for anxiety and fears.

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.
