Anxiety
Sophie Pierce
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I approach social anxiety through a relational and nervous system lens, recognizing that fear, self-consciousness, and avoidance often develop as protective responses to experiences of feeling unsafe, disconnected, or misunderstood. Therapy focuses on creating a space of relational safety where clients can better understand their responses, build confidence, and gradually develop a greater sense of comfort and connection in relationships and social situations.

Amy Guido
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
It can be hard to know how to respond to a child or partner when feeling unsure or uneasy in ways that grow person rather than the anxiety. There are things we do in the short run that comfort, but don't seem to lessen anxiety in the long run.
We'll look at the role of worry collaboratively finding more effective responses that build capabilities over time so you're moving toward who and what matters most to you.

Patricia Fahmy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Anxiety can feel exhausting, especially when it begins to affect your relationships, confidence, and sense of emotional security. You may find yourself overthinking conversations, worrying about how others feel about you, seeking reassurance, struggling with trust, fearing rejection, feeling overwhelmed by conflict, or pulling away when vulnerability feels uncomfortable. While these patterns can be frustrating, they often make sense in the context of past experiences and the ways you've learned to protect yourself. I help clients understand the deeper roots of their anxiety, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop healthier, more secure ways of relating to themselves and others.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Anxiety can manifest as racing thoughts, worry, or physical tension that feels impossible to switch off. I help clients explore the protective parts carrying fear and responsibility, while using evidence-based tools like relaxation training, narrative therapy, mindfulness, and somatic strategies to calm the nervous system and build resilience. With training in IFS, attachment-focused work, and behavioral interventions, I tailor therapy to each person’s needs. I also collaborate with prescribers when appropriate and bring strong diagnostic skills to clarify overlapping concerns such as panic, trauma, or ADHD.

Sumer Statler Aeed
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Fear while a fundamental human healthy response, often in our culture and times become instead something that becomes a stopper instead of a warning system in our lives. Learning to manage and use your central nervous system in ways that serve you, to respond instead of react, allow you to reduce and manage fears and allows them to go back to being a warning system instead of driving your life. We select and try on for you from a combination of CBT, somatic work, breathwork and Central Nervous System work and others. This allows you to have a unique system for you to manage fear and return to a balance of how your body's system is meant to be.
