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.

Claire Babbitt, LMFT, JD
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, J.D.
When a patient presents with anxiety and fears, my approach is compassionate and with empathy. No matter what the fear, even if irrational to some, it is important to spend time to support the patient, and try to get possible clarity on any underlying conflict and current situational stress. Empathy and time with the patient is crucial, making sure the patient and therapist discuss patient's issues. Positive goals and solutions may provide relief in the short term, with the long term goal being reduction of fear and anxiety, with understanding of cause and steps toward solution.

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.

Nora Katz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Founder and Clinical Director, Inner Compass Psychotherapy
Anxiety often spikes before you can say why. Rather than only managing the symptoms, we get curious about what the anxiety is protecting, which is usually where lasting relief comes from.

Inner Compass Psychotherapy
Therapist, Group Practice | Clinical Director: Nora Katz, LCSW
Anxiety often shows up as a mind that will not slow down, a body that stays braced, or a constant sense of falling behind. We work on calming the alarm in the moment and on understanding where it comes from, so it loosens its grip over time.
