Autumnleaf Group, Inc.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
In life we are told to just push through hard times- we hear: “it’ll get better”, “time heals all wounds”, “that happened such a long time ago- get over it”. We get so caught up in pretending everything is fine- trying to forget the bad things that have happened in our lives and for what? Fear of asking for help? Being perceived as weak? Scared to feel vulnerable? That fear of feeling vulnerable keeps us humans from truly feeling joy and happiness. It can distance us from the ones we love and be the cause of using maladaptive coping mechanisms. Mitra Shahryary specializes in this area.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you struggle with anxiety or fear, you may feel like your mind just won’t turn off—constantly anticipating what could go wrong, overthinking situations, or feeling on edge even when there’s no clear reason. You might avoid certain situations, lose sleep, or feel physically tense and exhausted from trying to stay in control. Even when you know your fear doesn’t make sense, it can still feel very real in your body.
I help clients understand and change the patterns that drive anxiety at both the conscious and unconscious levels. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify and restructure the thought patterns that keep anxiety going. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work more deeply to calm the nervous system and rewire the automatic fear responses that feel out of your control. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you step out of the struggle with anxiety and respond to life in a way that is grounded, flexible, and aligned with what matters most to you.
What’s often missing isn’t insight—you may already understand that your anxiety is excessive or irrational. What’s missing is a way to retrain your brain and body so that your reactions actually change. Without that deeper shift, anxiety continues to show up automatically, regardless of how much you try to “think your way out of it.”
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready for something different. If you’re willing to learn a new way of responding, I can help you reduce anxiety, face situations with greater confidence, and feel more calm, present, and in control of your life.

Natalie Campbell
Psychologist, PsyD; LLC
I often refer to these feelings as the "Itchy Bitchies." Anxiety is a natural emotion that we need to learn to interpret, as it often has important messages for us. Learning how to embrace those anxious thoughts and fears can help to override the automatic reactions and tune in to our true feelings. This process takes practice, and I am here to help!

Carrie Jones, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LifeVision Counseling, LLC
Anxiety can include several symptoms including feeling nervous or restless, worrying about the future, having difficulty concetrating, having a sense of impending danger, and can include physical symptoms such as sweating and increased heart-rate. Sometimes, anxiety can stem from fear of making a new choice or changing your reality. Anxiety can be a problem when it feels out of proportion to the actual circumstance or becomes difficulty to manage. Therapy helps you explore and evaluate the possible causes of these feelings and provides support as you learn and practice new method of addressing and reducing the anxiety. Some methods include practicing mindfulness, grounding exercises, guided imagery, and journaling.
