Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Anxiety tries to convince us that certainty is the only path to safety, leaving us caught in cycles of overthinking, worry, or avoidance of challenging but important life activities. Instead of treating anxiety as the enemy, we'll become curious about what it's trying to accomplish and why it has become so persistent. Together, we'll learn more flexible ways of responding to anxious thoughts and feelings so they no longer dictate your decisions. The goal isn't to eliminate anxiety altogether, but to help you build a life that's guided more by your sense of purpose than by fear.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
The worry doesn't turn off. You run through scenarios, anticipate problems, prepare for disasters that never arrive. Your body stays tense even when there's no immediate threat. People tell you to relax, as if you hadn't thought of that, as if you wouldn't if you could. We work with anxiety not by trying to make it disappear but by helping you understand what's driving it and changing your relationship to it. You can learn to feel the discomfort without being controlled by it. Our clinicians use evidence-based approaches that actually work, not just reassurance that wears off by the time you get to your car. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Anxiety can present in a number of ways, including worrying thoughts about several areas of life, rumination, physical tension and restlessness, sleep difficulty/insomnia, mind going blank, and avoidance. Feelings of anxiety can make daily tasks seem overwhelming, leading to doubtful decision making, difficulty performing your best, or interference with the things you care about most. I utilized evidence-based practices designed to treat anxiety and fears, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness methods. My therapeutic style includes values driven skill development, supportive therapy, behavioral experiments, and coping strategies to help adults manage worry and overcome fears.

Mind Body Connections
Counselor/Therapist
We each approach working with this differently. Through the use of trauma informed somatic body based approaches we work with the client to become more aware of how the anxiety shows up in their body and then practice tools to emotionally regulate the system.

Lincoln Park Psychology, Inc
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologists, LCPC, LPC, LCSW, LSW, CADC, AMFT
Anxiety and fear are natural responses in our daily lives. They are not only typical but they are necessary. The difficulty is in deciding when these feelings are dysfunctional vs. functional. Our clinicians work closely with clients to set attainable and realistic goals for clients as well as a plan to achieve these goals. Talking about your anxiety and fear, does not actually help your anxiety and fear. There needs to be a connection made regarding from where these feelings are stemming, how they manifest in each person, and where we can expect to change them.

Best Therapies, Inc.
Therapist
Anxiety is one of the most common presenting problems for people coming into therapy. Work pressures, families and relationships, reading the news, and the dumpster fire that is social media can all be sources of stress. For folks with anxiety, severe stress can trigger anything from rumination and worry to panic attacks.

Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety is not a malfunction. It is the body's insistence that something requires attention — something the mind may have been working very hard to avoid. The racing thoughts, the tightness in the chest, the inability to sit still in your own life: these are not symptoms to be managed away. They are communications. In our work together, we slow down enough to hear what the anxiety is actually saying — what it has been protecting, what it has been pointing toward — so that you can begin to live with more room.

Beck Gardner
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
I find psychoanalytic therapy can be quite helpful in treating anxiety and other fears. Understanding your worries, their nuances, and where they come from, can often help people change their relationship to them and better ways of managing them.
