Anxiety or Fears
Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Welcome! It is so common for us to expect everyone's anxiety to match our own experience. However, I want to start therapy by learning your language and your personal experience with anxiety. We’ll start with stories of when you notice an absence or smaller amount of anxiety present—environments, relationships, and activities where maybe you feel peaceful, content, and confident. We’ll talk through the patterns of when anxiety arises, what happens during the experience, how others respond, and what consequences follow the anxiety experience. After I’ve really learned your experience, we’ll begin to increase experiences of exception, building on those beautiful exhales and moments of glee. We may use EMDR or somatic therapy approaches to explore deeper roots and truly move through the embodied experience of fear. We can also use EMDR and imagery to practice tools and skills successfully for future experiences that often bring anxiety, so that when the experience occurs the amount of anxiety is lessened.

Anxiety or Fears
Erin Kennedy
Therapist, LPCC
Do you find yourself constantly worrying about the future or anticipating that something will go wrong? Do you tend to ruminate about the past or feel like you're being judged? Anxiety can be a common aspect of modern life (especially with our ever-increasing digital connectedness), but it doesn't need to run yours. In fact, anxiety is often a way we attempt to cope with other difficult emotions like hurt, sadness, powerlessness, and anger. We will work together to identify the emotions driving your anxiety and develop more effective strategies, like mindfulness & radical acceptance, to cope.

Hilary Stokes
Therapist, PHD, LCSW
Mind body approaches are fundamental to treating anxiety. Given anxiety has a primary physical component, brain informed, or body-based therapies have been shown to be essential in reducing symptoms of anxiety. In many cases these treatments far surpass traditional approaches. Meditation, mindfulness, diaphragmatic breathing practices and other relaxation techniques are often considered the hub of most mind body approaches. Brainspotting, EMDR, somatic therapy, parts therapy, hypnosis, visualization, energy psychology and biofeedback are several science-based strategies for decreasing anxiety.

Reid Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety can show up as racing thoughts, irritability, sleep issues, panic symptoms, difficulty concentrating, or a constant sense of tension. Therapy can help you build tools to regulate anxiety while also addressing the deeper patterns driving it, so you can feel more calm, confident, and in control.
