Anxiety
Craig Springer
Psychologist, PhD
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.
Like many other illnesses, effective treatments exist to decrease your suffering and reconnect you with a happier, healthier life.
We have wide-ranging experience supporting people with anxiety disorders including: fears of objects or places, social phobias, separation anxiety, performance anxiety, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The evidence-based treatments that we use can enable you to effectively manage your symptoms, regain control, and begin to experience greater joy.
So, if you frequently experience…
– Constant feelings of dread
– A pounding heart, the racing heightened by the slightest of frights
– Anticipating the worst, regardless of evidence
– 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!”
…Then I am glad you found me. While I know this condition can come with a stigma that may have stopped you from seeking the care you need, your life can and should get better. The evidence-based therapeutic methods that I use can help to bring you substantial relief. If you’d like me to assist you, please contact me today for an appointment.

Anxiety, Fear, and the Overactive Alarm
Moving from Survival to Safety
Anxiety is rarely just "stress." It is a profound, systemic response—a persistent signal from your nervous system that you are not safe, even when your logical mind says otherwise. In my practice, we don’t just "manage" symptoms; we work to understand the roots of your fear and rewire the internal alarm that keeps you in a state of constant vigilance.
The Anatomy of Fear
Whether your anxiety manifests as a loud, racing heart or a quiet, paralyzing dread, it often stems from deep-seated patterns of protection. We explore:
The "What-If" Loop: Addressing the cognitive exhaustion of chronic worry and the hyper-vigilance that comes from expecting the next crisis.
Somatic Awareness: Understanding how your body stores fear—from the tight chest to the shallow breath—and learning to regulate your nervous system in real-time.
Attachment-Based Anxiety: Exploring how early relationships shape our current fears of abandonment, inadequacy, or "not being enough."
A Specialized Clinical Approach
With over 20 years of experience, I integrate deep-reaching modalities to help you find a grounded sense of peace:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): We use EMDR to target the "stuck" memories or past traumas that fuel today’s anxiety, allowing your brain to finally process fear into a sense of resolution.
Systems Theory: We look at the external "constructs" in your life—your family, your work, and social inequities—to see how your environment may be triggering or sustaining your anxiety.
IFS-Informed Parts Work: We get curious about the "anxious parts" of you. Instead of fighting them, we learn what they are trying to protect, allowing them to finally step back from the driver's seat.
For the "High-Functioning" Anxious
I have a particular passion for working with perfectionists, therapists, and leaders who appear composed on the outside while white-knuckling through their days. You deserve a space where you don't have to "have it all together"—a space where your fear is met with courage, curiosity, and clinical precision.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.
