Anxiety or Fears
Kaitlin McMahon, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anxiety can show up in many ways--constant worry, racing thoughts, physical tension, or a sense of always being "on edge." It can make everyday decisions feel overwhelming or create patterns of avoidance that shrink your world over time. In therapy, we work to better understand your anxiety, develop practical tools to manage it, and gradually build a greater sense of calm, confidence, and flexibility.

Anxiety or Fears
Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
Anxiety and fear can show up as constant tension, racing thoughts, or a body that never seems to fully relax. My approach to anxiety and fear is holistic and somatic, I help you tune into what your nervous system is trying to communicate, rather than just manage symptoms. Using somatic therapy, mindfulness, and creative interventions, we’ll work together to gently unwind old patterns, bring safety back to your body, and cultivate real resilience. Healing anxiety and fear isn’t about suppressing your feelings, it’s about finding new ways to move through them and reconnect with your own sense of calm and inner strength.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Anxiety often shows up as overthinking, perfectionism, people-pleasing, panic, or feeling like your nervous system is always on high alert. Many anxious people are highly attuned, highly responsible, and very hard on themselves. In therapy, we work on calming the nervous system, understanding the roots of the anxiety, and helping you build a different relationship with your thoughts so they don’t run the show.

Jack Szary
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, excessive worry, and persistent fears that interfere with daily life, decision-making, or relationships. Many of my clients feel mentally overactive, emotionally tense, or caught in cycles of overthinking and avoidance despite wanting to feel calmer and more confident. My approach combines evidence-based strategies with deeper insight into emotional patterns, helping clients reduce anxiety, build tolerance for uncertainty, and develop a greater sense of control and ease in their lives.

Buffalo's post-industrial economy and harsh winters contribute to elevated rates of depression and seasonal mood challenges, and therapists here are experienced in working with these climate-related patterns. The city has a strong community identity and a sizable working-class population, with therapists frequently addressing grief, economic stress, relationship issues, and intergenerational family dynamics. The University at Buffalo and Erie County Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while private practices serve those seeking longer-term therapeutic relationships. Buffalo's proximity to Canada and its large Rust Belt peer cities also shapes a regional resilience that many therapists draw on in their work.
