Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
I have worked for many years with both generalized anxiety disorders and specific fears and phobias. Social anxiety and public speaking anxiety are among the most common problems people seek help for. I have worked with a great many individuals that have a fear of flying and fears around driving. I offer a number of treatment options including a cognitive behavioral strategy known as systematic desensitization.

Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
These are difficult times, and it's natural to feel anxious or scared. In fact, fear has a biological purpose; it kept our ancestors alive and alert to threats of harm. However, our anxiety can become stuck on overdrive. In psychotherapy, we'll practice noticing and naming fear as it shows up in daily life, learn to discern when action (versus self-compassion, mindful awareness, or acceptance) is needed, and experiment with skillful responses.

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.

Dayna Nelson, PsyD, LP
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Anxiety is one of the most common presenting problems in Dr. Nelson's practice. When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – treats more than just symptoms to the problem. Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, learn how to relax, look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.

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.

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.

Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
In our dedicated anxiety and fear management counseling, we offer compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to help individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety, panic, and phobias. Recognizing that anxiety can manifest in diverse ways—from generalized anxiety to specific phobias and panic attacks—we provide a supportive and understanding environment where clients can safely confront their fears and learn practical strategies for managing anxiety.
Personalized Approaches to Anxiety Management
* Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): A cornerstone of our approach, CBT helps individuals understand the relationship between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Through CBT, clients learn to identify and challenge distorted thought patterns and beliefs contributing to anxiety, replacing them with healthier, more balanced ways of thinking.
* Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: Incorporating mindfulness practices and relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and meditation, can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety. These methods teach clients how to stay present and grounded, managing anxiety symptoms as they arise.
* Exposure Counseling: Gradually and safely exposing individuals to the source of their fears in a controlled setting can help diminish the power those fears hold.
* Stress Management: Learning to manage stress through time management, lifestyle changes, and healthy coping mechanisms can significantly reduce overall anxiety levels. We work with clients to identify sources of stress in their lives and develop practical solutions to address them.
* Strengths-Based Approach: Emphasizing the strengths and resources that each individual brings into therapy allows for a more empowering approach to managing anxiety. By building on these strengths, clients can foster a greater sense of confidence and resilience.
Goals of Counseling for Anxiety or Fears
The ultimate goal of our counseling sessions is not merely to reduce symptoms but to enhance overall well-being and quality of life. Through counseling, clients can achieve:
* Increased Coping Skills: Gain a toolkit of strategies to manage anxiety symptoms effectively when they arise.
* Improved Self-Understanding: A deeper insight into the triggers of anxiety and how past experiences may influence current reactions.
* Enhanced Quality of Life: With reduced anxiety, individuals can enjoy more fulfilling social interactions, better performance at work or school, and a richer, more engaging life.
If you or someone you know is struggling with anxiety or fears, let's work together to develop a comprehensive, personalized path to managing these feelings and fostering a more peaceful, satisfying life.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
"Anxiety is actually a normal part of life and can be helpful at moderate levels, providing motivation to push you to achieve more, or providing a warning to avoid a bad or dangerous situation. However, many people experience such high anxiety levels that they feel distressed, and the anxiety interferes with their functioning. Therapy can help you learn to manage and reduce your anxiety so it no longer distresses you. Paying attention to habits, thoughts, beliefs, and feelings related to anxiety can help people greatly reduce the negative impact of anxiety. I use a holistic approach with psychodynamic underpinnings to help you to identify beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and habits that contribute to your anxiety, and then make changes to reduce and manage your anxiety.

Anxiety often shows up as constant “what if” thinking, racing thoughts, and a body that never feels at rest.
