Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
When your brain feels like it just won't turn off, it can be hard to make decisions, feel present in the moment, or even fall asleep at night. Therapy with me can help you turn down the volume on the thoughts cluttering your mind, take action without overthinking, and find a sense of calm and peace. I use mindfulness tools to help clients feel present in the here and now, which helps them reduce worries about the future. When it comes to anxiety or fears about specific situations, I work with clients to develop a plan including exposure and acceptance strategies to increase comfort when appropriate and reduce the mental energy fear is taking in your brain. Over time, you will find your perspective shifting and an increased sense of calm rather than a constant storm.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Our bodies and brains are hardwired to take care of us, to look out for danger, and to alert us of anything that may go awry. But what do we do when our internal alarm systems have over-adapted and are now overactive? I work with clients in reframing their relationship with anxiety: to identify and navigate current stressors, to uncover their beliefs fueling their anxious cycles, to build their perceptions of self-efficacy in the face of stressors, and to lessen their fear of fear itself.

Dr. Paul Daanen
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety almost always lies in the aftermath of trauma. I work with people to identify and transform the thoughts and interpretations of situations that trigger anxiety and panic. Perhaps as important, my work also emphasizes the strengthening of someone's belief in themselves and their self-concept as a whole--since we cannot control the future, we must learn to be confident in our capacity to handle whatever might come.

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Anxiety often shows up as racing thoughts, physical tension, or constant worry - even in people who appear outwardly successful. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients challenge unhelpful thought patterns, practice mindfulness strategies, and reduce the hold anxiety has on their daily lives. Together, we’ll strengthen your ability to respond with calm and clarity, so you can feel more grounded and confident navigating work, relationships, and personal challenges.

Dr. Heidi Anderson Sauder
Psychologist, PhD, CGT, CST
Couples therapy can be a powerful space for easing anxiety—especially when worry, overthinking, conflict avoidance, or emotional disconnection begin affecting the relationship. Using evidence-based Gottman Method, therapy guides couples to understand their patterns that fuel stress and insecurity while building healthier communication, emotional safety, and trust. Partners learn practical tools to reduce reactivity, navigate difficult conversations with greater calm, and strengthen connection during times of uncertainty. As couples feel more supported and understood by one another, anxiety often becomes more manageable both within the relationship and individually. Feelings of anxiety and fears are welcomed into the therapy space to create understanding and build a path to healing.

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.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
There are many ways that anxiety can manifest in our lives. At low, manageable levels, anxiety can actually be beneficial and help drive us. It can keep us on track to meet deadlines or prevent us from getting complacent. However, most people come to therapy when anxiety begins to feel more harmful than helpful. Whether it’s a specific worry that keeps coming up, or a chronic, global anxiety that affects multiple areas of your life, we will work together to turn down the volume on anxiety and start making room for what’s important to you.

Jennifer Whaley
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety can make life extremely limited in what you can or want to do. It is our human nature to want to avoid; however, this most often takes us further away from the life you desire. I use a CBT approach of exploring your fears and responses while gaining confidence through practicing actions. My main focus areas are health anxiety, OCD, agoraphobia, and panic.

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.

Psychworks Clinic
Psychologist, PHD
At PsychWorks Clinic, we understand that anxiety can show up in many forms — racing thoughts, constant worry, irritability, perfectionism, or the sense that your mind just won’t turn off. Anxiety can be exhausting, and it often makes people feel trapped between wanting control and fearing they’ll lose it.
Our team uses evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients recognize the patterns that fuel their anxiety and develop practical tools to manage it. We focus on helping clients build emotional awareness, calm their nervous systems, and regain confidence in their ability to handle life’s challenges.
We see anxiety not as a sign of weakness, but as your mind’s way of trying to protect you — sometimes too much. Together, we help you retrain that instinct, find balance, and rediscover a sense of peace and presence in your daily life.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Anxiety and fear can be approached from a variety of therapeutic techniques. Depending on severity, we can stay flexible in approaches to your anxiety and fear that you are experiencing. I like to note that many anxieties and fears are rooted in real experiences that are worthy of unearthing and healing. For those who come with anxieties that are based in reality, such as experiencing oppression or aggression from society, we will work together to find a path that allows you to feel like you get to live a life of value and finding ways to decrease your anxiety without necessarily losing access to safety.

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.
