Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
Living with anxiety can turn even the simplest of daily tasks into daunting challenges. What might seem effortless to others can trigger intense worry, restlessness, and even emotional paralysis for those grappling with anxiety. Whether you've inherited a genetic predisposition to anxiety from your family or have been thrust into this state due to uncontrollable life circumstances, the struggle is real. It could even be a blend of various factors contributing to your anxiety. But regardless of its origins, there are effective methods to alleviate anxiety, regain a sense of self-control, cope with everyday hardships, and confront difficult situations with confidence.
As a licensed psychologist, I wield one of my profession's most potent tools: the ability to teach you how to harness the immense potential of your mind to reshape your responses to life's twists and turns. My specialized training in neuropsychology, EMDR, clinical hypnosis, and somatic techniques equips me to offer profound assistance to those battling anxiety. I employ meditation, mindfulness, guided imagery, breathwork, and visualization to guide you in quelling your symptoms and taking charge of your anxiety. Furthermore, I delve into the underlying negative thoughts and core beliefs that may be fueling your anxiety, arming you with invaluable self-empowerment tools to navigate your inner experiences and minimize suffering.
Anxiety is a multifaceted adversary, encompassing various forms such as Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, Social Anxiety, Phobias, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Most frequently, it manifests as chronic worry and fear, casting a shadow over every aspect of life. Nonetheless, with the right therapeutic strategies, I can guide you towards seizing control of your thoughts, conquering your anxiety, and embracing a life brimming with serenity and happiness.

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
My approach to treating anxiety involves helping you identify and alter thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to your experience of anxiety. You will learn coping strategies and problem-solving skills to manage your symptoms more effectively. You may engage in exposure therapy, which is often a component of therapy that involves gradually approaching anxiety-provoking situations in a controlled manner, reducing your fear response over time. Additionally, I am training in ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) which I use regularly to help with acceptance of anxiety and improving overall emotional resilience.

Madison Zimbal
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA counseling intern under supervision
Anxiety can show up in many different ways, constant overthinking, self-doubt, perfectionism, physical tension, irritability, or feeling like your mind never fully slows down. I specialize in helping clients understand and manage anxiety in a way that feels both practical and deeply supportive.
In our work together, we focus on identifying the thought patterns, emotional triggers, and life experiences that fuel anxiety, while also building tools to help calm the mind and regulate the nervous system in real time. I use CBT and DBT-informed strategies to help clients challenge unhelpful thinking, tolerate distress, and feel more in control of their emotional responses. When anxiety is rooted in deeper experiences or trauma, I am trained in Brainspotting, which can support processing at a deeper level beyond talk therapy. My goal is not just symptom management, but helping clients feel more grounded, confident, and able to trust themselves again. I also offer Christian counseling for clients who wish to incorporate their faith into the healing process. I aim to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where anxiety feels less overwhelming and more understandable, so clients can begin to feel like themselves again.
