Anxiety or Fears

Alabaster Counseling

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Anxiety has a way of making the world feel smaller, stealing your peace, keeping you up at night, and convincing you that the worst is always just around the corner. At Alabaster Counseling, we specialize in helping girls and women of all ages understand and overcome anxiety and fears, whether they show up as constant worry, panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias, or a persistent sense of dread that is hard to explain. Through evidence-based CBT techniques, we help our clients gently challenge the thoughts that fuel their fears, develop grounding tools for real-life moments, and rebuild a sense of calm, confidence, and safety from the inside out.

Washington, Washington, D.C. therapist: Kelsey Ellis, psychologist
Anxiety or Fears

Kelsey Ellis

Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Anxiety often shows up as persistent tension, overthinking, or a sense of always needing to stay in control. Many of the women I work with are highly capable and used to pushing through these feelings, even when the mental and emotional load becomes exhausting. Rather than focusing only on managing symptoms, therapy offers space to understand what anxiety has been trying to protect and how it developed over time. Together, we work toward creating a greater sense of internal steadiness and more flexible ways of responding to stress and uncertainty.
