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.

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.

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.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety or fears by helping them better understand the patterns that keep anxiety going, such as avoidance, overthinking, and a strong need for certainty. Anxiety can show up in many ways, including racing thoughts, physical tension, or feeling constantly on edge. In therapy, we focus on building skills to respond to these experiences more effectively. Using CBT and ACT based approaches, I support clients in gradually facing fears, reducing avoidance, and developing a more flexible relationship with anxious thoughts so they can feel more confident and in control in their daily lives.

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.

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.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, ATR, EMDR-Certified
Anxiety affects both the mind and body, and healing begins by reconnecting with both. Using EMDR, somatic awareness, creative expression, and relational support, I help clients move from overwhelm toward clam, clarity, and self-trust.
