Silvina Falcon - Levine
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW
Anxiety and fear are normal responses we experience when dealing with real threats to our physical or emotional integrity. They are the responses embedded in our biology to ensure our survival and wellbeing. However, when we suffer from anxiety disorders, anxiety becomes the default emotion that quench our ability to adjust and overcome adversity. The anxious mind defines everything as a threat, and anxiety soon becomes an overwhelming emotion that keeps limiting our ability to function. Overtime, anxiety cuts the edges of what it feels safe, restricting our every day experience exponentially. Eventually, joy and growth is virtually impossible to attain.
I have extensive experience helping clients overcome anxiety disorders, including fear of objects of places, social phobias, separation anxiety, performance anxiety, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. In my practice, I instrument evidence-based treatments that enable you to effectively manage your symptoms and regain control of your life. They include cognitive behavioral therapy, particularly exposure therapy, exposure and response prevention,TEAM therapy, as well as mindfulness and relapse prevention to help you manage your symptoms, and begin experience freedom and inner peace.

Do you worry about work constantly when you’re at home, or feel anxious and tense even about small events?
Is your mind riddled with a powerless sense of imminent danger, a place where rising panic can be difficult to quell?
Does your apprehension make it difficult to get on with regular life and enjoy each day?
Do you struggle with recurrent thoughts that bring about fear, doubt and anxiety and compel you to engage in safety and sometimes nonsensical behaviors?
Do you often experience the urge to seek reassurance from friends or family members to keep your doubts, worries, and fears at bay?
These signs and symptoms are common in those suffering from anxiety disorders. Anxiety and fear can have even paralyzing effects in many aspects of your life; however, there is hope for a calm and serene horizon.
Anxiety is not your fault or caused by anything you have or haven’t done.
It is important to know that you are not alone and that many other people experience problems with anxiety. The good news? There is help.

– Physical symptoms like headaches, sweating, shakes and jumpiness, trouble concentrating, a frequent need to urinate and stomach uneasiness
Or if you often think…
– “It’s safer to stay at home.”
– “But what if…”
– “I can’t breathe / do this / relax / stop / switch off!”
– “They or I could be in danger!”

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.

Lionel Latouche - Kairos Psychotherapy & Wellness
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
In working with clients who are struggling with anxiety, we first seek to identify the triggers or stimuli that cause anxious feelings or behaviors to arise. By identifying these triggers, we work toward uncovering the thoughts or experiences that lead to the anxious feelings. Through psychological reframing, intentional and gradual exposure to stimuli, and consistent implementation of positive coping skills, we can gradually lower the alarms and physical effects in our bodies, leading to more favorable outcomes when dealing with future triggers.
