Anxiety
Nick Sotor
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety is a fear of what might happen. While strategies aimed at avoiding or controlling anxiety can sometimes work in the short term, often they only serve to reinforce and strengthen anxiety over time. My approach focuses on radical acceptance of anxiety as a way to reduce suffering.

Anxiety
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.

Anxiety
Dr. Monika Sharma
Psychologist, PsyD
We are all wired to avoid pain and seek pleasure; but foremost, to avoid pain. Because pain signals danger to most living creatures. As humans, one of the biggest discomforts we experience is anxiety. And we will do anything to reduce or avoid the things that create anxiety. However, this often backfires because the things that create feelings of anxiety are often things that truly matter. If they didn't truly matter, we wouldn't feel anxious or worried about them.
When we listen to our anxiety and try to reduce or avoid these feelings, we can end up moving away from the things that most matter to us.
I will teach you how to be curious about your uncomfortable feelings such as anxiety, anger, fear, sadness, loneliness, and overwhelm. This involves learning to build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings because they won't actually hurt us; approach these feelings without judgment; poke at them and examine them and see what lies within them; and then decide how we want to use these feelings as a compass to guide us toward those things that truly matter. You will feel empowered to be the master of your feelings, not a puppet to them.

As a licensed psychologist, I specialize in treating anxiety using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a highly effective, evidence-based approach. My practice focuses on helping clients identify and challenge anxiety-provoking thoughts, develop coping strategies, and gradually face feared situations to reduce avoidance behaviors. Through our collaborative work, clients learn to manage their anxiety symptoms, build resilience, and regain control over their lives, leading to lasting positive change and improved overall well-being.
