Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Anxiety has a way of making everything feel urgent and high-stakes. Whether you're a high-achiever whose mind won't quiet down, a teen overwhelmed by social and academic pressure, or someone whose worry is quietly getting in the way of your relationships and your life — you don't have to keep white-knuckling it. I help clients understand what's driving their anxiety, challenge the thoughts keeping them stuck, and build real tools to feel calmer and more in control.

We'll work together to understand the patterns beneath your anxiety, build a greater sense of safety within yourself, and help you reconnect with your confidence, resilience, and ability to trust your own decisions.

Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Anxiety isn’t just “overthinking”—it’s a full-body response that can leave you feeling on edge, stuck, or constantly bracing for what might go wrong. For many people, it shows up as racing thoughts, difficulty relaxing, avoidance, or a sense that your mind just won’t turn off. And in a world that often is unpredictable or overwhelming, anxiety doesn’t come out of nowhere. At Nour Counseling, we take a grounded, informed approach that helps you understand what’s actually happening in your brain and body—so your experience starts to make sense, not feel like something is wrong with you.
We prioritize psychoeducation as part of the work. We’ll walk you through the neuroscience behind anxiety and fear—how your nervous system responds to perceived threat, why certain patterns get reinforced, and what keeps anxiety cycling. But we don’t stop at insight. We actively help you build practical, usable tools that fit your real life—not ideal routines that fall apart after a week. Together, we develop strategies you can actually integrate day-to-day, whether that’s regulating your nervous system, shifting thought patterns, or approaching feared situations in manageable ways. The goal is not to eliminate anxiety entirely, but to help you feel more equipped, more in control, and less at the mercy of it.

Claire Robinson-Scalzi
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA, NCC
Feeling constantly stuck in the future with all of your fears and worries? Together, we can help you recenter into the present moment and let go of the anxieties that keep you frantic. This will look like trying lots of centering techniques to find what works best for you, exploring and feeling through your fears, and looking at past events that have reinforced those worries and/or negative beliefs about yourself that keep you on edge.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
I work with clients struggling with Generalized Anxiety and Social Anxiety. We work to identify triggers, increase the ability to challenge the anxiety spiral distortions that may consume your thinking patterns and build coping skills that you will actually engage in. A significant part of addressing anxiety is increased self awareness. We will work to interrupt your behaviors or communication patterns that may be intensifying your negative symptoms.

Cary is one of the most affluent suburbs in the Research Triangle, home to a high concentration of technology and pharmaceutical workers drawn by employers like SAS Institute and the broader Research Triangle Park economy, and the city's mental health landscape is shaped by the particular stresses of high-achievement professional culture and a large transplant population navigating relocation. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, perfectionism, work-life balance, relationship difficulties, and the identity challenges of building a life in a community where many residents are far from extended family and long-term social networks. A well-developed private therapy sector serves Cary, and the proximity to Raleigh's larger market gives residents access to a wide range of specialties and modalities. The city's highly educated and professionally successful population tends toward an open and pragmatic attitude toward therapy.
