Gail Eaves
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, LPC
Fear and anxiety roar as a lion and can impair one's strength. The presence of fear and anxiety cause significant distress and impairment in various important areas of functioning, such as cognitive, driving, traveling, social, work, school, and relationships. A simple task for many people, e.g., shopping, family trips, eating out, or just going outside of the house can be challenging for those with fear and anxiety related symptoms.

Autumnleaf Group, Inc.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
In life we are told to just push through hard times- we hear: “it’ll get better”, “time heals all wounds”, “that happened such a long time ago- get over it”. We get so caught up in pretending everything is fine- trying to forget the bad things that have happened in our lives and for what? Fear of asking for help? Being perceived as weak? Scared to feel vulnerable? That fear of feeling vulnerable keeps us humans from truly feeling joy and happiness. It can distance us from the ones we love and be the cause of using maladaptive coping mechanisms. Mitra Shahryary specializes in this area.

Tricia Mazza
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Anxiety often shows up as constant overthinking, second-guessing yourself, and feeling responsible for keeping everything—and everyone—okay. For many women, this is deeply connected to relationship patterns where you’ve had to anticipate others’ needs, walk on eggshells, or stay hyper-aware of shifting moods. Over time, this can create a sense of internal pressure, emotional exhaustion, and difficulty trusting your own judgment. In our work, we focus on understanding where this anxiety comes from and helping you respond with clarity and grounded self-trust instead of self-doubt.

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.

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Anxiety has a sneaky way of hijacking your thoughts, draining your energy, and convincing you that everything is a bit more catastrophic than it probably is. Whether it shows up as constant worry, racing thoughts, sleepless nights, or that uncomfortable tightness in your chest, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to stay stuck.
With nearly 20 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help clients understand and work with their anxiety—not just try to outrun it. Using mindfulness-based approaches, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and compassion-focused tools (with a dash of humor), we’ll explore what your anxiety is trying to tell you—and how to respond in a way that feels empowering instead of paralyzing.
You’ll learn how to ground yourself, create space from your thoughts, and reconnect with what matters most—even when anxiety tries to take the wheel. Fear might still visit (because hey, it’s human), but it doesn’t have to drive your life.
Let’s turn down the volume on anxiety and help you breathe a little easier.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you struggle with anxiety or fear, you may feel like your mind just won’t turn off—constantly anticipating what could go wrong, overthinking situations, or feeling on edge even when there’s no clear reason. You might avoid certain situations, lose sleep, or feel physically tense and exhausted from trying to stay in control. Even when you know your fear doesn’t make sense, it can still feel very real in your body.
I help clients understand and change the patterns that drive anxiety at both the conscious and unconscious levels. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and restructure the thought patterns that keep anxiety going. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work more deeply to calm the nervous system and rewire the automatic fear responses that feel out of your control. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you step out of the struggle with anxiety and respond to life in a way that is grounded, flexible, and aligned with what matters most to you.
What’s often missing isn’t insight—you may already understand that your anxiety is excessive or irrational. What’s missing is a way to retrain your brain and body so that your reactions actually change. Without that deeper shift, anxiety continues to show up automatically, regardless of how much you try to “think your way out of it.”
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready for something different. If you’re willing to learn a new way of responding, I can help you reduce anxiety, face situations with greater confidence, and feel more calm, present, and in control of your life.

Is anxiety taking over your life? Are you struggling with G.I. issues, rheumatoid arthritis, or other somatic issues aggravated by anxiety? Is anxiety getting in the way of being present in your life? Relief is possible.
Anxiety is a very common issue and treatable by the process of expanding your window of tolerance for emotions, which decreases anxiety. My style is work at a pace your nervous system can embrace - whatever that pace is for each person.

Is anxiety getting in the way of your true potential? When you look at the future, are you overwhelmed with dread or uncertainty?

You may suffer from headaches, stomach aches, shortness of breath, or panic attacks. Perhaps you can barely sleep because of how stressed out you are.
