Deborah Ejiofor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Treating anxiety in therapy usually involves different methods to help people manage their symptoms. One common approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people identify and change negative thoughts that cause anxiety. CBT also teaches coping strategies and relaxation techniques. Other therapies, like mindfulness, focus on staying present and managing anxiety through deep breathing and awareness. Therapy provides a safe space to understand the causes of anxiety and learn skills to manage stress and fear for better long-term emotional health.

Peter D. Ruffini, Sex & Porn Addiction Expert
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, MA, LPC, LPCMH, ACS, EMDRPT-II, CSAT-C
I help men whose anxiety doesn’t shut off—constant pressure, overthinking and worry, vigilance, or physical tension that interferes with focus, sleep, and relationships. Treatment goes beyond symptom management to address the underlying drivers, including trauma responses, rigid belief systems, and emotional avoidance. Using evidence-based approaches, we work to reduce anxiety at its source so it no longer controls your decisions or behavior.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I have over 10 years of experience supporting clients experiencing mild to severe anxiety and fear-based struggles. My approach combines evidence-based strategies with deeper emotional exploration to help clients better understand and manage their anxiety in both the short and long term.
I often integrate CBT-based tools to help clients identify anxious thought patterns, challenge unhelpful thinking, and develop more realistic and balanced ways of responding to stress. Alongside this, I incorporate somatic and mindfulness-based practices to help clients become more aware of how anxiety shows up in the body and learn ways to regulate and ground themselves in the present moment.
While practical tools are an important part of treatment, I also believe it’s essential to understand where anxiety comes from. Together, we explore past experiences, relationships, and learned patterns that may have shaped how anxiety developed over time. This combination of insight and skill-building allows clients not only to manage symptoms in the moment, but also to address the deeper roots of their anxiety.
Clients can expect a supportive, collaborative process that balances warmth, structure, and real-world strategies they can apply outside of session to feel more grounded, confident, and in control of their anxiety.
