I often refer to these feelings as the "Itchy Bitchies." Anxiety is a natural emotion that we need to learn to interpret, as it often has important messages for us. Learning how to embrace those anxious thoughts and fears can help to override the automatic reactions and tune in to our true feelings. This process takes practice, and I am here to help!

Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
While Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT) is highly effective in the treatment of anxiety disorders (e.g., Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder), clinicians do see some “return of fear,” or partial relapse, in some patients due to a variety of factors. Over the past two decades, treatment researchers, with whom Dr. Jayson Mystkowski had the pleasure of working with at UCLA for over 10 years, have studied “return of fear” and discovered some key variables that may optimize the effects of learning during CBT for anxiety disorders (Craske et al., 2008).
First, evidence suggests that focusing on tolerating fear versus eliminating fear yields better clinical outcomes in the long term. Namely, teaching clients that fear and anxiety are normal feelings, rather than attempting to “down-regulate” such feelings all the time, is more realistic and seems to engender “hardier” clients. Second, helping clients to generate an expectancy that “scary things will not happen,” is very powerful. To do this, it is important for clinicians to create more complex exposure exercises (i.e., tasks in which a client confronts a stimulus of which they are afraid), using multiple feared stimuli instead of one at a time. Then, the lack of a feared outcome becomes particularly surprising and memorable for a client and fear reduction is more potent. Third, increasing the accessibility and retrievability of non-fear memories learned during treatment are powerful factors in mitigating against a return of fear. Craske and colleagues demonstrated that exposure to variations of a feared stimulus, using a random schedule across multiple contexts or situations, is more effective than exposure to the same stimulus, on a predictable schedule, in an unchanging environment. The former paradigm, it is argued, creates stronger non-fear memories that are easier for a client to access when subsequently confronting feared objects or situations outside of the therapy context, than the later scenario.
In sum, clinicians have long been aware that some fear or anxiety returns following very successful CBT treatment. As mentioned above, there are some clear, empirically supported ways to modify the therapy we provide to further help clients generalize the gains made in therapy sessions to the real world.

Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Anxiety can make even everyday situations feel overwhelming. Constant worry, racing thoughts, difficulty relaxing, panic symptoms, fears, or avoiding certain situations can interfere with work, school, relationships, and overall well-being. While anxiety is a natural response to stress, it does not have to control your life.
At Elvive Psychological Services, we help children, adolescents, and adults better understand the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that contribute to anxiety. Our clinicians use evidence-based approaches to teach practical coping skills, reduce avoidance, build confidence, and help clients respond more effectively to life's challenges.
Whether you are struggling with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, excessive worry, panic symptoms, specific fears, or anxiety related to major life transitions, we provide compassionate, individualized care tailored to your unique needs and goals. Together, we work to help you regain a sense of balance, resilience, and confidence so you can move forward with greater peace of mind.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I work with anxiety and fear through a trauma-informed, body-aware approach rooted in Compassionate Inquiry®. Rather than treating anxiety as something to eliminate, we explore it as a meaningful signal shaped by past experiences, nervous system patterns, and unmet emotional needs. Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, hypervigilant, or stuck in cycles of worry or self-doubt. Together, we build awareness, regulation, and understanding, helping clients relate to anxiety with compassion and develop greater safety, clarity, and trust in themselves.
