Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Anxiety and fear can show up as consistent worry, restlessness, or a sense of being on edge. These responses are often rooted in the mind and body’s effort to anticipate and protect against perceived threats. Together, we can better understand these patterns, gently challenge what may no longer serve you, and develop ways to feel more steady and at ease.

Dr. Sam Macy
Psychologist, PsyD
When high anxiety and fear take over, they can hold us back from living fuller, richer, and more engaging lives. Therapy can be transformative in helping people confront and overcome the fears and worries that limit us.

Dr. Daniel Cantor
Psychologist, Psy. D.
Anxiety informs you to be alert about something and is a natural aid for navigating life. If your experience is that your anxiety never gets quiet this may be connected to a history of trauma or specific vulnerabilities that we can help understand in order to reduce the intensity of your worries. In my practice I teach mindfulness as base of safety to approach anxiety safely and give you agency to overcome this obstacle.

Summer Stewart, PsyD
Pre-Licensed Professional, PsyD
Anxiety doesn’t have to run the show. Maybe your mind never seems to shut off. You’re constantly overthinking, second-guessing yourself, or playing out worst-case scenarios. Even when nothing is “wrong,” your body still feels on edge—tight chest, racing thoughts, that pit in your stomach you can’t quite explain.
You’re tired of being stuck in your head, tired of the fear, tired of feeling like you're always holding it together for everyone else. I get it. Anxiety can make even the smallest things feel overwhelming. But you don’t have to keep living this way.
Therapy is a space to breathe again—to calm your nervous system, untangle the noise in your mind, and finally feel more present and in control. Together, I'll help you understand what’s fueling the anxiety and offer you tools to manage it in a way that feels gentle, doable, and tailored to you.
You're not broken. You're overwhelmed—and you deserve support. Let’s help you find ease, clarity, and confidence again. You don’t have to keep doing this alone.

Danielle Keys at Headway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
Many things in life can trigger anxiety or fear. Often times, it is hard for individuals to pinpoint it's origin and sometimes there is no exact thing to point to. I assist clients to learn about their internal world- thoughts, feelings, actions, and most importantly bodily experiences that are often not noticed. Anxiety starts from the inside-out. We will use Mindfulness, Progressive Muscle Relaxation, and learning about how emotions impact our body's response to things in the environment. We must distinguish between what's in one's control and what is not.
