Sound familiar?

  • “I haven’t gotten a good night’s sleep in ages.”

  • “There’s too much on my plate, I’m on edge all the time.”

  • “I feel sick to my stomach thinking about upcoming obligations or events.”

  • “The same thoughts and scenarios race through my head over and over on a loop.”

You’ve always been people’s go-to person when they needed someone reliable, but lately, the pressure has been getting to you.

At some point before you can really remember, you realized that keeping your mouth shut and going along with others caused less trouble than speaking up for yourself, and now you don’t know how to say “no”.

Getting things right is important to you, and part of you has always had a sense of pride in the fact that you strive to be better than just “good”. Recently, though, you may have realized that this could be a source of that nagging feeling that nothing you do is ever enough. Now, you feel like the stress that constantly weighs you down is getting in the way of everything in your life.

We’re here to help you with:

  • Overthinking & worry

  • Overwhelm

  • Getting better sleep

  • Concentration issues

  • Physical symptoms of anxiety

  • Fear of judgment

  • Obsessing over outcomes

  • Setting boundaries

  • Social anxieties

  • Self-criticism & fear of failure

  • Making time for self-care

  • Performing well at work with more ease

 

Our approach to therapy for anxiety starts & ends with honoring your needs.

 
 

Hold space

The very first step in counseling for anxiety and stress with us is choosing a comfortable physical space where your online sessions will take place. This way, you can feel comfortable fully letting your walls down without fear of interruption. Then, you and your therapist will delve into your past to look for the root causes of your worries.

PErsonalized Practice

There is no “one-size-fits-all” way to treat anxiety, so we’ll get to know you and your particular struggles before deciding which tools would be most beneficial to you. Then, you’ll learn those evidence-based tools and how you can practice them in moments of distress.

MOVE FORWARD & THRIVE

You’ll come away from therapy with a deeper understanding of where your anxiety comes from, feeling more connected to your body, and knowing how you can manage stress and worry day-to-day. Finally, you’ll be able to live the incredible life you want, overcome the fear of failure, and find real relief.

how we work

Therapy for anxiety & stress can help you…

  • Understand your anxiety triggers

  • Build resilience to the stress of things you can’t control.

  • Prioritize yourself & your needs

  • Learn to regulate your “fight or flight” response

When you feel safe to give a voice to your worries, you take away their power.

Our therapists not only give you the space to do that, but also everything you’ll need to feel long-term relief from the feelings that hinder you from being your best self.

  • Anxiety and stress are related but distinct concepts. Stress is your body's response to external pressures or demands, while anxiety is an emotional response that involves overwhelming worry or fear. That being said, stress can trigger anxiety, and the symptoms of each can be similar.

  • Yes, anxiety can manifest physically with symptoms like rapid heartbeat, muscle tension, shortness of breath, stomach issues, and headaches. These symptoms result from the body's "fight or flight" response activating when it misinterprets your anxiety as an external threat.

  • While therapy can significantly help manage and reduce anxiety, the extent to which it “goes away” depends on factors like its severity, your willingness to engage in therapy, and to implement tools between sessions. Overall, therapy equips you with coping strategies to better navigate and control your anxiety over time.

  • Your therapist will come up with a treatment plan that is tailored to your individual needs based on what you discuss in your initial sessions. Many of the treatments we recommend for anxiety and stress involve holistic modalities like EMDR and Brainspotting, which you can learn more about here.
