Robin Renucci
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ed.D, Ed.S, M.Ed, LPC, NCC
Anxiety often develops in self-reinforcing cycles, where the mind and body respond to perceived threats in ways that initially feel protective but can become limiting over time. What begins as a natural stress response can evolve into patterns of avoidance—of certain places, situations, or even emotions—which ultimately strengthens the anxiety and makes everyday life feel increasingly constrained.
Physically, anxiety can manifest through tension, restlessness, fatigue, or disrupted sleep. Emotionally, it may lead to constant worry, irritability, or a sense of being overwhelmed. These symptoms can interfere with your ability to function, connect, and engage in the life you want to live.
In therapy, we work together to gently interrupt these cycles by increasing awareness of triggers, exploring the root causes of your anxiety, and building practical tools for managing stress. My goal is to help you regain a sense of control and confidence, so you can move through life with more ease, resilience, and clarity—on your own terms.

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.

There is so much to consider when it comes to anxiety! Anxiety is often used as an umbrella term that represents a multitude of symptoms and mental health disorders that all have their unique features and treatments. For example, treating panic attacks from an anxiety management approach tends to escalate symptomology. Let's work together to identify what symptoms you are struggling with and find the right treatment approach for you.

Anxiety and Fear can be very overwhelming, but it can be manageable through psychoeducation, coping skills, support, and a mentally healthy outlook on life. Anxiety and fear can also be managed through medication management, but not all clients need medication to manage their anxiety and fear.
