Anxiety
Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
Anxiety can make it difficult to feel settled, even when there’s no obvious reason for something to be wrong and others around you are reassuring you. You might find yourself anticipating problems, second-guessing decisions, or feeling responsible for thinking through every possible outcome. Even when things look fine from the outside, the constant mental effort of managing uncertainty and trying to prevent anything from going wrong is exhausting. Using evidence-based therapies, Dr. Desai can help you understand the patterns that keep anxiety going, face uncertainty with greater confidence, and reclaim time and energy for what matters to you. As a result, you'll start to reengage with your life and potentially find new facets of life entirely.

Anxiety
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Clients with anxiety need to become familiar with their anxious parts in order to understand how to walk the line between appropriate accommodation and tackling avoidance strategies when they dominate. Children and families need to understand how to support challenging the constraints that anxiety can impose and how to push themselves to kindly move into the world less bogged down when anxiety dictates the terms.

Anxiety
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Everyone has anxiety, at least once in a while. However, for some people it can be burdensome or even crippling. I have experience treating a number of anxiety disorders using both psychodynamic (e.g., Supportive-Expressive Therapy; Panic-Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy) and cognitive-behavioral therapies. These approaches may be augmented with aspects of existential therapy as well.

Richard S. Shapiro Ph.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
Have you been avoiding the people, places, or things that used to give you pleasure? Do you feel hijacked by your emotions? Are you a perfectionist or someone who needs things to be a certain way all the time? Has anxiety or fears caused your life-space to shrink? You may be suffering from an anxiety disorder. In your work with me we will focus on understanding how you think and feel and construct your world along with the factors that are holding you back. We will work on ways for you to gradually and safely re-engage with those aspects of your life that you used to love. In our work together I will help you to reduce the subtle and the obvious emotional and cognitive avoidance that derails you and maintains your fear cycle. We will focus on learning new skills, practicing new ways to approach life based on your needs, interests, and values. We will focus on reducing felt chaos and replacing behavioral and emotional rigidity with flexibility .

Anxiety
Tatiana Turo-Handy, PsyD., PMH-C
Psychologist, PsyD. PMH-C
Anxiety can show up as constant worry, racing thoughts, physical tension, or a sense of being on high alert. As a bilingual (Spanish/English) psychologist, I provide supportive, evidence‑based therapy to help individuals understand the roots of their anxiety, calm overwhelming emotions, and develop tools to feel more grounded and in control. My work focuses on helping clients break out of fear‑based patterns, strengthen coping skills, and rebuild confidence in their daily lives.
