Anxiety
Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Anxiety looks a little different in all of us and finds its foothold based on a variety of factors: genetics, early experiences, current stressors, and social discomfort, to name a few. For some people it is utterly debilitating in one or more domains of life and for others it’s an unpleasant refrigerator hum that dampens an otherwise well-lived life.
Therapy can help you both regulate the intensity of anxiety and make a pivot in how you respond to its presence, making way for less struggle and more opportunities for choosing how you want to live.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
Anxiety often lives in the body as tightness, restlessness, or fear. I offer culturally attuned, body-based tools to help you recognize early signs of anxiety and interrupt the cycle before it overwhelms you. We’ll explore how systemic stress, perfectionism, or past trauma may fuel your worry, and we’ll build grounding practices that restore a sense of calm and choice.

Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
While Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT) is highly effective in the treatment of anxiety disorders (e.g., Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder), clinicians do see some “return of fear,” or partial relapse, in some patients due to a variety of factors. Over the past two decades, treatment researchers, with whom Dr. Jayson Mystkowski had the pleasure of working with at UCLA for over 10 years, have studied “return of fear” and discovered some key variables that may optimize the effects of learning during CBT for anxiety disorders (Craske et al., 2008).
First, evidence suggests that focusing on tolerating fear versus eliminating fear yields better clinical outcomes in the long term. Namely, teaching clients that fear and anxiety are normal feelings, rather than attempting to “down-regulate” such feelings all the time, is more realistic and seems to engender “hardier” clients. Second, helping clients to generate an expectancy that “scary things will not happen,” is very powerful. To do this, it is important for clinicians to create more complex exposure exercises (i.e., tasks in which a client confronts a stimulus of which they are afraid), using multiple feared stimuli instead of one at a time. Then, the lack of a feared outcome becomes particularly surprising and memorable for a client and fear reduction is more potent. Third, increasing the accessibility and retrievability of non-fear memories learned during treatment are powerful factors in mitigating against a return of fear. Craske and colleagues demonstrated that exposure to variations of a feared stimulus, using a random schedule across multiple contexts or situations, is more effective than exposure to the same stimulus, on a predictable schedule, in an unchanging environment. The former paradigm, it is argued, creates stronger non-fear memories that are easier for a client to access when subsequently confronting feared objects or situations outside of the therapy context, than the later scenario.
In sum, clinicians have long been aware that some fear or anxiety returns following very successful CBT treatment. As mentioned above, there are some clear, empirically supported ways to modify the therapy we provide to further help clients generalize the gains made in therapy sessions to the real world.

Melissa Jermann
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anxiety can feel like a constant state of worry, restlessness, or even panic that makes it hard to fully engage in your daily life. At our practice, we understand how overwhelming anxiety can be and offer evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Exposure Therapy to help you manage and reduce its impact. Together, we’ll pin point anxiety triggers, develop tools to navigate it, break reinforcing cycles, and create a path to a more grounded version of yourself.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety is not a malfunction. It is the body's insistence that something requires attention — something the mind may have been working very hard to avoid. The racing thoughts, the tightness in the chest, the inability to sit still in your own life: these are not symptoms to be managed away. They are communications. In our work together, we slow down enough to hear what the anxiety is actually saying — what it has been protecting, what it has been pointing toward — so that you can begin to live with more room.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety and OCD. Some of my clients have started therapy because they want to rid themselves of anxiety altogether. I try to remind them that people who don't have anxiety also have issues, think about psychopaths! Anxiety at it's core is trying to keep us safe. I like to re-tune anxiety, so that we can listen to the warnings without getting overwhelmed, shutting down, or avoiding the world and challenges. Research in psychology shows that we feel more confident and have higher self-esteem when we can accomplish difficult tasks. The goal is not to shy away from challenges and stressors, but to learn to face them, manage them better, and have success stories.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
We all experience worries and anxiety at some point in our lives. Sometimes our ways of coping with these feelings don't seem like enough. Whether you are dealing with nagging worries, or something more significant such as specific fears (e.g., driving, flying), obsessive-compulsive tendencies (e.g., hording, having trouble with germs, varying your routine), or are having panic attack symptoms, we can work towards reducing the impact these worries are having on your life.
