Carlsbad, California therapist: Melanie Goetz, marriage and family therapist
Anxiety

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.

Vista, California therapist: Erin Kennedy, therapist
Anxiety

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.

San Diego, California therapist: Hilary Stokes, therapist
Anxiety

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.

Carlsbad, California therapist: Advent Christian Counseling, marriage and family therapist
Anxiety

Advent Christian Counseling

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT (R.N.-retired)
Anxiety has a way of narrowing your world — what begins as worry can gradually constrict your relationships, your work, and your capacity for joy. Drawing on my nursing background, I understand that anxiety is not merely a mental phenomenon; it often manifests physically, and its roots may lie in medical, spiritual, or circumstantial soil. Together we will examine what lies beneath your fears, develop practical tools for navigating them, and entrust the weight you were never meant to carry alone to the God who invites you to cast your cares upon Him.

My goal is to help you move beyond simply managing symptoms so you can experience greater peace, resilience, and freedom in your everyday life.
