Kathleen Cramer, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., PSYPACT member
CBT works at two levels simultaneously: cognitive and behavioral. The cognitive level helps you identify and challenge distorted or unhelpful thought patterns; and the behavioral level helps you change anxiety-based behaviors that maintain and/or strengthen negative thoughts/beliefs that prompt anxiety. These two components reinforce each other. For example, challenging a catastrophic thought makes it easier to approach a feared situation; and successfully approaching the feared situation helps to lessen or disprove the negative thought. Each successful approach strengthens the likelihood of future successful approaches, ultimately replacing old default modes of thought/emotion/behavior.

Dr. Heather Sheets
Psychologist, PsyD
Anxiety can make even ordinary parts of life feel overwhelming. You may find yourself constantly worrying, second-guessing your decisions, anticipating what could go wrong, or feeling unable to quiet your mind. Sometimes anxiety shows up as irritability, difficulty sleeping, physical tension, panic, or a persistent sense that you are never quite able to relax.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety by looking beyond the immediate symptoms to understand what is driving them. Together, we explore the thoughts, emotions, experiences, and core beliefs that may be contributing to your anxiety and keeping you stuck in patterns of worry, avoidance, or self-doubt.
My approach is collaborative, practical, and individualized. Using cognitive behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and a strength-based perspective, I help you recognize the connection between how you think, how you feel, and how you respond. We work to challenge unhelpful beliefs, develop healthier ways of responding to uncertainty, and build greater confidence in your ability to manage difficult emotions.
For some people, anxiety is connected to a major life transition, relationship difficulties, work or parenting pressures, or a deeper question about who they are and what they want from their lives. We can explore those underlying concerns while developing strategies that help you feel more grounded in the present.
The goal isn't to eliminate every uncomfortable thought or feeling. It is to help you develop a different relationship with anxiety—one in which it no longer dictates your choices or limits the life you want to live.
Together, we can work toward greater calm, clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of yourself.

Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
Anxiety and fear are the mind's way of trying to protect you — but left unchecked, they shrink your world and hijack your focus. I help you understand what your fear is actually responding to, calm an overactive nervous system, and rebuild the confidence to face what matters — a hard conversation, a return to competition, or getting back in the saddle after a fall. The goal isn't to erase fear, but to keep it from running the show.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in anxiety, my approach to treatment is centered on understanding the unique experiences and triggers of each individual while providing evidence-based interventions to effectively manage symptoms. Through therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques, I help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop coping strategies, and cultivate resilience in the face of anxiety-provoking situations. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of relaxation techniques, stress management skills, and lifestyle modifications to promote overall well-being. Collaboratively, we work towards empowering clients to regain control over their thoughts and behaviors, reduce avoidance, and ultimately live more fulfilling and balanced lives.
