Anxiety
Hayden Dover
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, CST
Anxiety often organizes itself around responsibility, uncertainty, pressure, relationship patterns, and choices that feel difficult to make. My approach looks at the whole experience: thoughts, emotions, body signals, habits, and the larger questions of how you want to live. I use somatic awareness, practical tools, existential-humanistic therapy, and positive psychology to help clients develop more grounded and flexible ways of responding.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I work with anxiety and fear through a trauma-informed, body-aware approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®. Rather than treating anxiety as something to eliminate, we explore it as a meaningful signal shaped by past experiences, nervous system patterns, and unmet emotional needs. Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, hypervigilant, or stuck in cycles of worry or self-doubt. Together, we build awareness, regulation, and understanding, helping clients relate to anxiety with compassion and develop greater safety, clarity, and trust in themselves.

Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Anxiety can feel like it’s running your life, pulling you into spiraling thoughts, keeping your body stuck in fear, and leaving you emotionally drained or numb. Over time, it can start to take the joy and connection out of relationships, hobbies, and everyday life, leaving you wondering if things will ever ease.
In therapy with me, you’ll learn how anxiety works, gain practical ways to find calm, and build genuine self-acceptance so the pressure can begin to lift. Together, we’ll explore the beliefs and past experiences driving your fears, helping you move toward a life that feels lighter, steadier, and more enjoyable.

Laura Fleming
Pre-Licensed Professional, Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Anxiety can feel insurmountable. If you're experiencing anxiety I want to offer you hope that there is so much we can do together to help you feel more grounded, sturdy and confident. In our work we look at how anxiety is impacting your life and relationships, its patterns, and explore what might be the root of your worry. We'll try a combination of interventions designed to help you become more mindful of your anxiety and strategies to notice your thoughts and feelings rather than control them/push it away. I'm with you every step of the way so you don't have to hold everything you are navigating by yourself.
