Anxiety or Fears
Reid Kessler
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety is part of life and it can also consume too much of your life. When your relationship to anxiety has become destructive it can be overwhelming and feel impossible to overcome. I specialize in helping people feel relief from anxiety and working collaboratively to help people create a relationship with their anxiety that helps it be something that is useful in their life and not controlling their life.

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.

Anxiety can be reduced greatly using psychonutrional approaches, and integrative work to balance the central nervous system. Once anxiety is managed, mindfulness strategies are taught and applied.

Anxiety conditions are definitely treatable. I used a combined approach of proven methods that can provide you with the necessary tools and skills to prevent relapse. This condition does not have to rule or ruin your life. You can regain control over your life and reduce uncomfortable symptoms.

Dr. Pamela Collman
Psychologist, PhD in Clinical Psychology
Separation anxiety, which can sometimes arise from an attachment issue, will impede a child’s success in school and hinder his or her creativity and productivity. I consider separation anxiety to be a learning disability and one of the most disabling of the anxiety disorders.

Marge Michaelson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ACSW, DSW
Anxiety is connected to the Unknown and Fear to the known. Anxiety and fear are part of everyday existence but when it overwhelms, techniques are needed for management. Cognitive approaches, visualization and journaling are some techniques in treatment.
