As a therapist, I pride myself on offering a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can openly express their thoughts and emotions. Through active listening and empathy, I aim to create a supportive environment that fosters healing and personal growth.

Anxiety is one of the most common presenting problems for people coming into therapy. Work pressures, families and relationships, reading the news, and the dumpster fire that is social media can all be sources of stress. For folks with anxiety, severe stress can trigger anything from rumination and worry to panic attacks.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Anxiety and fears can come from different things like past experiences, stress, or big changes in life. I'd help someone with anxiety by figuring out what's causing their fears. Then, I'd use techniques from therapies like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help them deal with their anxiety and learn ways to cope. I might also use methods like Motivational Interviewing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help them face their fears and live a better life. In couples therapy, I'd use approaches like the Gottman method and Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy to deal with any relationship issues that might be making their anxiety worse.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

In therapy for anxiety and fears, you will work on understanding the root causes of their anxiety and fears, often through techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or exposure therapy. It is also important to learn coping skills to manage anxious thoughts and physical sensations, and gradually confront feared situations in a safe and supportive environment to build resilience and confidence.
