Anxiety. No one has time for that. Yet, it is something that we all experience. Although no one gets a free pass off this ride, anxiety doesn’t have to be endured in silence, shame or isolation. In our therapy sessions we will work to identify precipitating factors of your anxiety, notice the ways your anxiety tends to manifest and together create a way to disempower those less-than-helpful anxiety responses.

Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
In the heart of my practice lies a deep understanding and dedication to those grappling with anxiety and fears. With empathy and care, I guide individuals through the turbulent waters of their anxieties using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques. It's more than managing symptoms; it's about nurturing an emotional transformation where fears are acknowledged, understood, and gently released. Together, we'll embark on a healing journey, cultivating inner peace and resilience, turning anxiety from a daunting shadow into a source of strength and self-discovery.

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.
