Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Anxiety can present in a number of ways, including worrying thoughts about several areas of life, rumination, physical tension and restlessness, sleep difficulty/insomnia, mind going blank, and avoidance. Feelings of anxiety can make daily tasks seem overwhelming, leading to doubtful decision making, difficulty performing your best, or interference with the things you care about most. I utilized evidence-based practices designed to treat anxiety and fears, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness methods. My therapeutic style includes values driven skill development, supportive therapy, behavioral experiments, and coping strategies to help adults manage worry and overcome fears.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety often is often hard to experience, but it's also a signal pointing to your needs, relationships, or sense of safety. In our work together, we focus on calming your nervous system while also exploring what your anxiety might be trying to tell you—especially in relation to your early experiences, important life changes, or patterns in close relationships. By approaching it with curiosity and care, anxiety can become a guide toward greater understanding and a steadier sense of calm.

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.

Kimberly Zacher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, SAC
Anxiety is a natural response to stress, but when it becomes overwhelming or persistent, it can interfere with daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. It may show up as racing thoughts, constant worry, physical tension, panic attacks, or fears that feel hard to control. I help clients better understand their anxiety and develop tools to manage it effectively. Using approaches like DBT, somatic work, mindfulness, and IFS, I support clients in calming the nervous system, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and building a greater sense of safety and confidence within themselves.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Fear is a universal human experience. It can either serve us or immobilize us. In my holistic life coaching practice, I have amassed tools, methods, and approaches to harnessing fear for our empowerment. I am always excited to share these resources as so much in our culture and day-to-day lives drives fear and anxiety. It's difficult to get through a day without our flight-or-flight response being triggered. While fear never goes away (and it shouldn't—we need it for informed decision making), we can acknowledge, manage, and utilize fear to our benefit. Excited to share with you. I am NOT offering therapy; our work together will not focus on the failings of the past or finding a mental diagnosis because I believe you are whole, resourceful and creative as you are, right now. Our work will be to find the tools that work for you to get the life you want.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From the perspective of Somatic Experiencing, anxiety can be a fight/flight response that hasn't fully settled. It can leave you with a feeling that something isn't quite right, and then your mind starts searching for reasons to feel that way. It's a vicious cycle.
We can work together to find ways to help your body 'complete' the unsettled fight/flight response so you can actually feel safer and more settled. Now your mind will be fresh and clear and better able to assess the situation and decide on a effective course of action.

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.

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.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a psychologist specializing in anxiety treatment, I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Internal Family Systems (IFS) to create a comprehensive structure of support and healing. I draw upon principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology to understand how anxiety activates our nervous systems, and how our situation, relationships, internal conflicts, and past experiences all work together to help and hinder our ability to manage. In our work together, you can expect a high level of collaboration, deeply compassionate understanding, and an abundance of metaphors as we tailor the therapy process to your needs, strengths, and situation.
