RENEE GUSMAN
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C.
Many people struggle with anxiety. The question is not whether you have anxiety but more importantly, it is how do you handle your anxiety? The distress anxiety causes can be managed when new techniques are learned. I use EMDR, CBT and Person-Centered Therapy, to teach adults and children proven techniques to manage anxiety symptoms.

Bee Still Grief & Loss Counseling, LLC.
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor
I help clients better understand their anxiety and work on practical ways to reduce it. This includes looking at the ways in which our thoughts (beliefs), emotions, and behaviors are circular in nature and impact each other. I also believe in incorporating mindfulness practices in reducing anxiety symptoms.

Phillip Thomas Stepka, PsyD.
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
"Worry," "nervousness," "fear," "bad nerves," "stress"? Anxiety can mean many things to many different people. Some experience this unwanted state in the forms of body sensations such as digestive distress, racing heart, and/or feelings of suffocation that seemingly come randomly and without clear explanations. Others have intrusive images of disastrous futures to avoid or past experiences never wanted to be repeated. Perhaps you have an extremely pessimistic internal critic that expects the worst out of you, others, and/or the world. Finally, there may be specific people, places, or situations that trigger overwhelming anxiety that impair your effectiveness and wellbeing. I utilize individually tailored, yet evidence-based practices to address anxiety in the following ways: 1) first develop a shared understanding of the source of your distress and type of anxiety you are dealing with. 2) develop skills to manage impairing anxiety when triggered to provide short-term relief. 3) Finally, utilize strategies to more deeply understand the sources of your anxiety in order to provide longer-term resilience so that times that previously provoked the anxious feelings no longer have the same impact in the first place.

Barry D. Schwartz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anxieties and fears are experienced by most people. People worry about things that might happen. However the anxious person becomes preoccupied with this condition, thereby, producing further anxiety. Anxiety can be expressed in a number of psychological, behavioral and physical symptoms. For example: aches and pains, sweating, worry, panic attacks, feeling unable to cope, and fearfulness. Anxiety is driven by fear of uncertainty. I will assist you in working through the discomfort in fear that accompanies anxiety. I will do this by using number of approaches that include: biofeedback, cognitive behavioral therapy, breath work, brainwave entrainment and stress management techniques.

Metairie is the largest suburb of New Orleans, sitting in Jefferson Parish just west of the city, and its mental health landscape is inseparable from the legacy of Hurricane Katrina, which flooded large parts of the area in 2005 and left lasting trauma across a community that rebuilt slowly and with ongoing grief. As a historically more prosperous suburb of New Orleans, Metairie has higher rates of private insurance coverage and more accessible private therapy than the city itself, but ongoing climate anxiety and the recurring stress of subsequent storms remain significant presenting concerns. Ochsner Health System and Tulane University's medical programs provide behavioral health services in the broader New Orleans metro, and a private therapy sector serves Metairie residents directly. Common therapy concerns include hurricane-related trauma and grief, climate and weather anxiety, family stress, and the complex community grief of a region still navigating recovery decades after Katrina.
