Anxiety
Dr. Madelyn Satz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anxiety is fear about what might happen, and our bodies react as if those fears are actually playing out right now, even though in this present moment they are not. We can work with this. We can begin to understand anxiety as a helpful caveat and come to relate to it as useful. And we can learn to quiet our anxiety so that it’s less overwhelming and not debilitating and instead actually beneficial and protective. We can update the feelings so they work for who we are today.

Anxiety
Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Anxiety has a way of making everything feel urgent and high-stakes. Whether you're a high-achiever whose mind won't quiet down, a teen overwhelmed by social and academic pressure, or someone whose worry is quietly getting in the way of your relationships and your life — you don't have to keep white-knuckling it. I help clients understand what's driving their anxiety, challenge the thoughts keeping them stuck, and build real tools to feel calmer and more in control.

Anxiety
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.

Anxiety
Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In my practice, I help patients struggling with anxiety and fears by utilizing a comprehensive and personalized approach tailored to their unique needs. I begin with a thorough assessment to understand the specific sources and impact of their anxiety. Education is provided to help patients recognize anxiety triggers and understand the physiological responses involved. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is employed to address negative thought patterns and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Mindfulness and relaxation techniques are taught to enhance self-awareness and reduce stress. Exposure therapy is used to gradually desensitize patients to their fears in a controlled and supportive environment. I also offer strategies for improving emotional regulation and building resilience. Family involvement is encouraged to create a supportive network, and a strength-based approach is used to build confidence and empowerment. Ongoing support and follow-up ensure continuous progress and adjustment of therapeutic strategies. This comprehensive approach aims to empower patients to manage their anxiety effectively, overcome their fears, and lead more fulfilling lives.
