Paulina Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSWA, LCASA
Anxiety often shows up as a constant state of bracing; a sense that you need to stay alert just to get through the day. In our work together, I focus on creating a steady, supportive container where anxiety can soften enough to be understood. We pay attention to how fear has been trying to protect you, while building practical tools that help your nervous system feel less alone with what it’s carrying. Over time, this work supports more steadiness, choice, and ease in daily life.

Susanne R Mealer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anxiety, fears and phobias can truly shrink you world and how you show up in it. These issues can be related to/caused by just about anything, sometimes it makes sense to people and sometimes not at all. Whatever the cause, you don't have to continue tolerating it.

Anxiety or Fears
Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Anxiety has a sneaky way of hijacking your thoughts, draining your energy, and convincing you that everything is a bit more catastrophic than it probably is. Whether it shows up as constant worry, racing thoughts, sleepless nights, or that uncomfortable tightness in your chest, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to stay stuck.
With nearly 20 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help clients understand and work with their anxiety—not just try to outrun it. Using mindfulness-based approaches, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and compassion-focused tools (with a dash of humor), we’ll explore what your anxiety is trying to tell you—and how to respond in a way that feels empowering instead of paralyzing.
You’ll learn how to ground yourself, create space from your thoughts, and reconnect with what matters most—even when anxiety tries to take the wheel. Fear might still visit (because hey, it’s human), but it doesn’t have to drive your life.
Let’s turn down the volume on anxiety and help you breathe a little easier.

Anxiety or Fears
Tenikka Denard
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCMHC
Anxiety can feel scary and debilitating. Often times, people just want those scary feelings to go away, but it is crucial to understand that our brains and bodies utilize feelings of anxiety as part of an internal security system to keep us safe. Sometimes that system gets overloaded or stuck in a state of alarm that we don't know how to turn off. My approach to treating anxiety is it to use holistic approaches and evidence based strategies to help you understand how you got stuck or overloaded so you can learn healthy coping skills to gain more control of that system. Let's connect and discuss how I can help you gain more control of your anxiety.

Dr. Lauren Chase
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LCMHC, NCC, BC-TMH
Many high-achieving women live with a constant undercurrent of anxiety. On the outside, you may appear successful and capable, yet internally, you feel pressure to keep performing, overthinking, and managing everyone else’s needs. Often, this pattern develops early in life and continues into adulthood. In therapy, we work to understand the roots of that anxiety, calm your nervous system, and help you move through life with greater clarity, steadiness, and self-trust.

Anxiety or Fears
Jordon McRae
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
The pressure is overbearing. You feel like you’re sprinting toward an invisible finish line that keeps moving. The weight of expectations—your own and everyone else’s—presses down on you. Maybe you’ve convinced yourself that if you can just work harder, be better, prove your worth, you’ll finally feel okay. But deep down, you’re exhausted. And you’re starting to wonder: Does it really have to be this way?
It doesn’t. Therapy can help you step off the hamster wheel of perfectionism and self-doubt. Together, we’ll identify what’s fueling the pressure, challenge the patterns that keep you stuck, and help you build a life that feels authentic, balanced, and actually fulfilling—on your terms

I have a lot of experience helping people who struggle with anxiety. It's actually one of my main areas of focus, partly because I've dealt with anxiety myself. I know the techniques I'll teach you actually work because I've had to use them in my own life to find relief.

Stephanie McCray CCHt
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist
The stressors from family, work, relationship and just every day life, has you feeling overwhelmed. You’re worrying all the time, losing sleep, feeling fatigue and at the blink of an eye, you lose your concentration.
You find yourself drinking caffeine and eating junk foods to boost yourself up just to function through the day, or barely eating at all. But with each passing day, the anxiety intensifies a little more. The more the anxiety intensifies, the more you feel like you’re losing control.
Anxiety and fear can be the driving force that brings our lives to a screeching halt. With hypnosis, you can get back in the driver's seat by reducing or eliminating anxiety and fear. Learn how to stay calm, increase your motivation and confidence so you can focus on the things that are important.
Get back in the driver seat and take control of your life. Call to schedule your free consultation.

Kathryn Shanks

I work with anxiety as a whole-system experience, not just a set of symptoms. Therapy may focus on understanding underlying patterns, supporting nervous system regulation, and developing greater internal safety so anxiety feels more manageable and less consuming over time.

I support individuals in understanding anxious states and fear, easing distress, and cultivating a steadier way of living. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we take time to study what is happening on the surface and underneath, then turn that clarity into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less reactivity, more steadiness and choice, and a life that can hold uncertainty without being overwhelmed.
