Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating anxiety symptoms for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. You and I will examine the component parts of your symptoms such as emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. We’ll then examine how these parts are connected and how they impact each other. I’ll help you create changes to one or more of these parts to achieve your desired symptom relief. Helping people break free from their anxiety is one of the primary reasons I became a psychologist.

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.

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.

Gerry Letendre
Hypnotherapist, RPh, MBA, CHt
Many people experience anxiety or fears that don’t respond well to logic, reassurance, or willpower alone. These reactions are often driven by subconscious patterns that were learned over time and continue automatically, even when they are no longer helpful. Hypnosis provides a practical way to work with those patterns at their source.
My approach to hypnosis for anxiety and fears is personalized and collaborative. Drawing on decades of healthcare experience, I tailor each session to the individual rather than using scripted techniques. Together, we focus on calming the nervous system, reducing anticipatory worry, and helping the mind develop new, more adaptive responses to stressors and triggers.
Clients often seek hypnosis for generalized anxiety, situational anxiety, phobias, health-related fears, and performance-related fears. Hypnosis can be especially helpful when anxiety persists despite understanding its irrational nature. Sessions are conducted in a calm, supportive environment where clients remain aware and in control throughout the process.
Hypnosis is offered as a drug-free, complementary approach and is not a replacement for medical or mental health care. When appropriate, it can work alongside other professional treatment to help restore a greater sense of calm, confidence, and emotional balance.

Jenna Poppe
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, NNC, PLPC | ADHD + Relationship Therapist
Anxiety and ADHD are frequent travel companions, and together they can be absolutely relentless. The overthinking, the paralysis, the emotional intensity, the feeling that you are always behind and never quite enough. Add in rejection sensitivity and a lifetime of masking and the weight of it can feel enormous. I work with clients to untangle anxiety from shame, understand the nervous system patterns driving it, and build practical, personalized tools for relief. You don't have to live like this and you don't have to figure it out alone."

Katie at Jade Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Tightness in your chest, racing thoughts, an inability to concentrate, a pounding heart, sleeplessness, irritability, rage, a sense of impending doom. Do any of these sound familiar? As we as a nation continue to live in what feels like a constant pressure cooker with an ongoing health crisis, virtual work and school, and the continued grief and loss of ‘normal’, the day to day stressors that are overwhelming in a typical year might feel unbearable. Therapy is a great way to relieve some pressure and get back in touch with who you are outside of the constant anxiety overload.

I work extensively with anxiety as it is typically co-occurring with issues such as ADHD, relationship challenges, life stress and issues related to infertility. I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy interventions to reduce anxiety, panic and a variety of fear based issues. I am a firm believer in providing tools to effectively manage anxiety and panic, ideally to the point of no longer needing medication if possible.

Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Everyone has anxiety, at least once in a while. However, for some people it can be burdensome or even crippling. I have experience treating a number of anxiety disorders using both psychodynamic (e.g., Supportive-Expressive Therapy; Panic-Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy) and cognitive-behavioral therapies. These approaches may be augmented with aspects of existential therapy as well.

Marnie Kahn
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, HeartMath Certified Practitioner
Anxiety can be a debilitating and painful experience, which can stop individuals from living and experiencing life at its fullest. I teach individuals how to become aware of their thoughts rather than be consumed and fused with them. I have found that people get so caught up in their anxiety provoking thoughts that they actually believe they are the thought, rather than being the person who is experiencing the thought. I teach people how to take back their life again!
Combining awareness with the HeartMaths tools of creating coherence teaches people how to shift out of negative and anxious mindsets and into more positive renewing feelings.
