Anxiety or Fears
Olajumoke Adeyemi
Therapist, Nurse Psychotherapist APRN PMHNP-BC
When working with clients managing anxiety, I take a compassionate, collaborative approach that respects your unique experience. Together, we explore the thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations that arise with anxiety to better understand your triggers and patterns.
I use evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and gently challenge anxious thoughts, while teaching practical coping skills like grounding, relaxation, and mindfulness. These tools empower you to manage anxiety in daily life and build resilience over time.
In addition, I address any underlying factors—like trauma, stress, or biological contributors—through integrative therapy and, if appropriate, medication management as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. My goal is to create a safe space where anxiety can be understood, managed, and diminished so you can live more freely and confidently.

Anxiety or Fears
Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety is not a feeling so much as a state of being. Anxiety attaches it self to a variety of emotional states, adding energy and intensity to our thoughts and actions. There is NO eliminating anxiety. It is hardwired within us, a biological necessity for our survival as a species. Why do we try so hard to destroy it? Because, we reply, it is unpleasant, and disruptive, to our lives. So the key then is to manage it, to reduce its intensity, and to better understand when, where and why it erupts within us.

Anxiety or Fears
Janice Shapiro
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxieties and fears are actually there to protect us. We all need some anxiety and fear to keep us safe. But when Anxiety and Fear become too intense, they no longer protect; they become obstacles that must be overcome. Together, like detectives, we can find out the origin of these misguided emotions so we can put them in their place.

Anxiety or Fears
Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety comes from the fear of getting hurt again or from the perpetual anxiety rooted in experiences of having been perpetually unsafe. In the first instance, the person fears that the source of their pain will happen again and tries to avoid it at all costs. In the second situation, the person looks out at the world and sees the worst possible scenario in everything. Regardless of what your anxieties or phobias are, we want you to know that you can overcome anxiety, emotionally stabilize, and regain control of your emotional and relational well being.

Misty Johnson

The anxious mind takes us out of the present moment and into a future narrative that may or may not ever exist. We can learn how to anchor into the present moment again and again.

Anxiety or Fears
Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
While it's good to think through potential outcomes, sometimes worry can overwhelm us. Perhaps you've always been a worrier or spent a lot of time on the "what ifs" and worst case scenarios in life. Or maybe you're a perfectionist, or have difficulty making decisions because you worry too much about what could go wrong. It's painful and un-productive to get caught up in an anxiety spiral. I can work with you on strategies for learning to tolerate the uncertainties in life and move forward toward your true values and desires.

Rinat Kass
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Stress is a part of life and you cannot eliminate it completely. What you can do is learn to manage the anxiety symptoms and minimize the negative effects stress has on you. In our work together, I will help you examine unnecessary stress that you create and therefore can remove from your life. I will also explore with you ways to better manage the stress in your life that is inevitable.
