Anxiety
Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety related to health, illness, medical conditions, and medical procedures. Using evidence-based cognitive behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches, I help patients understand the relationship between anxiety, physical sensations, thoughts, and behaviors—particularly when uncertainty or fear of illness can amplify distress and physical symptoms. My approach is collaborative and practical, helping patients develop effective strategies for managing health-related worry, navigating medical procedures with greater confidence, and engaging more fully in their lives despite uncertainty.

Douglas LaBier, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I treat the whole person, rather than the symptom of anxiety or fear. We explore and help awaken the source of the internal and external concerns that give rise to such symptoms. This enables new healing and growth of the person, beyond diminishment and management of symptoms.

Johanna Isaacs
Psychologist, Psy.D., PsyPACT Participant
I help clients with anxiety identify their fear and worry patterns, understand where these thoughts may have come from in their lives, and create new ways of thinking that are more balanced and supportive. Creating anxiety management tools that help reduce physical anxiety symptoms in the moment means that my clients build realistic and useful coping strategies that help them feel better when anxiety peaks. We cannot eliminate anxiety or fear from our life but we can learn to understand our anxiety as a piece of us and ultimately appreciate who we are as a whole person.

Amanda Shrekenhamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC
The goal of working on your anxiety in therapy is to feel more relaxed in situations where you might usually feel overwhelmed or panicked. We do this by identifying the underlying thoughts, emotions, and stressors contributing to the anxiety, and then develop ways to cope so that you feel relief from your symptoms.
Doing this work can feel scary, as even the discomfort of anxiety can feel more comfortable than the unknown. With that in mind, I strive to create a safe an accepting space, where we work together at whatever pace that you need.

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies.
We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

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.
