Anxiety
Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Anxiety can feel like you’re constantly bracing for impact, even when nothing is wrong. You overthink conversations, anticipate rejection, and struggle to relax, as if the weight of responsibility and others' expectations never stops pressing down. Maybe your mind races at night, replaying mistakes or worrying about things beyond your control. You’ve learned to stay on high alert—not because you want to, but because your nervous system never learned how to feel safe. If you grew up in an environment where love felt conditional, emotions were dismissed, or conflict meant danger, it makes sense that your brain adapted to expect the worst.
But you don’t have to live this way forever. Anxiety isn’t just in your mind—it’s in your body, shaped by old survival patterns that no longer serve you. Using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Post-Induction Therapy (PIT), I help clients reprocess past wounds so their nervous system can finally relax. Instead of just managing symptoms, we teach your brain and body that you are safe now—so you can stop living in survival mode, set boundaries without guilt, and trust yourself again. Therapy isn’t about forcing yourself to “calm down”—it’s about healing the root cause so peace becomes your new normal.

Ben Hedberg
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC, BCC
Anxiety can feel like constant overthinking, tension, or a sense that something isn’t right—even when things seem fine on the surface. I help men identify the patterns behind their anxiety and develop practical tools to manage it. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and skills-based strategies, we focus on reducing overthinking, improving emotional control, and building confidence in everyday situations.

Claire Karakey
Therapist, LPC, MC
Fear and anxiety can be paralyzing. In therapy, I work with people to help better explore and identify their fears so they can walk through them. I often utilize EMDR to help "clear" or "neutralize" fears that are stopping people from living their best life. I treat people dealing with all kinds of anxiety such as social, PTSD, OCD, etc.

Cynthia A. Criss
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LPCC, CSAT
Anxiety and addiction often have a complex relationship. They can co-occur, with one exacerbating the other. Here's an overview of how they interrelate and some strategies for addressing both:
The Connection Between Anxiety and Addiction
Self-Medication:
People with anxiety may turn to substances (alcohol, drugs, etc.) or behaviors (e.g., gambling, overeating) to alleviate their symptoms.
This can lead to dependence and, eventually, addiction.
Biological and Psychological Links:
Both anxiety and addiction may involve similar brain pathways, such as those regulating stress and reward.
Trauma, genetics, and environmental stressors can increase the risk of both.
Addiction as a Cause of Anxiety:
Substance use and withdrawal can heighten anxiety symptoms.
Addiction can create stress in relationships, work, and personal life, fueling anxiety.

In our work together, I provide a calm and supportive environment where we can explore what is contributing to your anxiety and develop practical strategies to help you regain a sense of stability and confidence. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, better able to manage stress, and more fully engaged in your life.
