Anxiety and fears are ways that our mind has to tell us to be careful... the thing is that it might have become over-protective and this is now causing us distress. There is a reason why your mind is telling you to be careful, we need to figure that out so we can work on the root of the problem.

Anxiety or Fears
Red Apple Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCDC, EMDR
Emotions are essential biological indicators, guiding us to take important actions—whether it's to rest, express our feelings, set boundaries, or stand up for ourselves. Often, anxiety emerges as a sign that deeper emotions are being ignored. Finding inner peace becomes difficult when we don't 'tune in' to our emotions and process them properly. Understanding this, my approach to treating anxiety is comprehensive. I am committed to identifying the treatment that best suits your individual needs, providing a personalized path toward effectively managing your anxiety.

Anxiety or Fears
Dr. Reanna Waugh
Treatment Center, PhD, Student, PhD program in Clinical Psychology
Supporting someone with anxiety can be frightening. Generally, the anxious individual feels totally overpowered by their anxiety, specifically if they encounter panic attacks or discover themselves controlled by anxious reflections. Some patterns of this can be in health and wellness anxiety, where the character suffers an obsessive worry of feeling or generating a health issue; or social anxiety, where the person is profoundly distressed by thoughts of mortifying themselves in social scenes or being found and rejected by someone. Waugh’s Holistic Wellness Center is here to help!

Ariel Cross
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
As a licensed mental health professional, I specialize in evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders, panic disorder, specific phobias, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). My therapeutic approach centers on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a gold-standard intervention that systematically guides clients through confronting fear triggers in a controlled, supportive environment to reduce symptom severity and improve daily functioning.
My comprehensive treatment framework integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques to help clients identify and transform maladaptive thought patterns and belief systems that maintain anxiety cycles. This specialized therapeutic combination empowers individuals to develop psychological flexibility while building practical coping strategies for lasting change.
Through personalized treatment plans tailored to each client's unique needs, I facilitate a compassionate therapeutic alliance focused on self-compassion and personal growth. My evidence-based methodologies are designed to alleviate psychological distress while promoting emotional wellness and freedom from anxiety's limiting constraints.

Whether your anxiety is tied to chronic pain, stress, or something harder to name, we’ll work together to find strategies that actually stick.

Anxiety or Fears
Mrs Sacha Wheeler, LPC-S, BCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, BCPC
Anxiety is unique to other mental battles in that the more you focus on it, the stronger it grows. Often after you have experienced your first panic attack, you panic about panic. Avoidance behaviors grow and before you know it, your ability to function in this world has significantly been impaired. Anxiety has a way of slowly taking over your life and making you feel completely powerless. Learning how to get your life back through the therapy process can make all the difference!

Anxiety or Fears
Jaclyn Davis
Psychologist, PhD
Anxiety can feel like a relentless mental spiral—racing thoughts, sleepless nights, and a constant sense of unease that’s hard to shake. It might show up in perfectionism, people-pleasing, or an overwhelming fear of the future, making it hard to relax or be present in your daily life. While short-term strategies can help manage symptoms, I work with clients to go deeper. Using a psychodynamic approach, I help uncover the underlying roots of your anxiety—often tied to past experiences, relational patterns, or internal conflicts. Through a trusting therapeutic relationship, we create space for insight, emotional healing, and lasting change—so you can move beyond coping and into a more grounded, connected way of living.

Anxiety or Fears
Ekow Kwakye
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Phil,LPC
Every emotion is relevant and teaches us more about ourselves than others. Anxiety is a sign that we are concerned about a possible danger or a hint to watch out for danger. Anxiety can serve us well unless we do not “abuse” to investigate it. I would love to work with you.

Anxiety or Fears
Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety and OCD. Some of my clients have started therapy because they want to rid themselves of anxiety altogether. I try to remind them that people who don't have anxiety also have issues, think about psychopaths! Anxiety at it's core is trying to keep us safe. I like to re-tune anxiety, so that we can listen to the warnings without getting overwhelmed, shutting down, or avoiding the world and challenges. Research in psychology shows that we feel more confident and have higher self-esteem when we can accomplish difficult tasks. The goal is not to shy away from challenges and stressors, but to learn to face them, manage them better, and have success stories.
