Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
Anxiety is the mind's way of trying to keep us safe but when it takes over, it can feel like the enemy. Rather than fighting your anxiety, I help you get to know it, which tends to reduce a lot of the internal conflict people are experiencing when they first come to me.

Alisha Moquin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Imagine a caveman stepping out of his cave and spotting a lion. His heart races, his muscles tense, his body floods with adrenaline. Survival-mode. That’s anxiety doing its job: keeping us alert and alive.
The challenge is, our modern brains haven’t evolved much since then. Today, that same survival system kicks in not just for lions, but for unanswered texts, job interviews, or a difficult conversation. Your body reacts like it’s life or death—even when it isn’t.
In therapy, I help you understand this ancient alarm system, why it sometimes goes off unnecessarily, and how to work with it instead of against it. By learning where your anxiety comes from and how your nervous system works, you gain practical tools to respond, regulate, and reclaim calm.
Let’s help your brain stop mistaking emails for predators.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Anxiety and fear is a common part of grief because death is random - it just don't make sense to the griever. Death of someone special can make the world feel unsafe, untrustworthy, unpredictable, and out of control. After someone dies, many grievers begin waiting for the next bad thing to happen. A child is five minutes late, a partner does not answer the phone, a friend didn't call when they said they would, or someone they love seems unwell, and their mind immediately goes to the worst possible outcome.
I support adults who are experiencing grief-related anxiety, racing thoughts, fear, panic, overwhelm, and the feeling that they cannot trust life anymore. I explain why these reactions make sense after loss, especially when a death felt sudden, unfair, traumatic, or impossible to accept. I also provide practical tools to help clients manage anxious thoughts, calm their nervous system, cope with triggers, and live with grief without feeling controlled by fear.

Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
You are everyone’s go-to person. High achievement and performance in everything you do is expected. Picking up the slack and getting the job done at all costs is just what you do. Others praise your drive and work ethic—you don’t miss a beat. Whether it’s in your relationships, at work, or in your family, you carry more than your share of the responsibility.
On the inside, it’s a different story. You may be constantly on edge, overthinking, running on fumes, or feeling like you can never fully relax. This level of pressure is exhausting, but slowing down doesn’t feel like an option.
I help clients work through the experiences that are driving these patterns so anxiety no longer has the same hold on them. Using EMDR, we address what’s underneath the anxiety so you can feel more grounded, calm, and in control.
