Anxiety or Fears
Helen Star, MFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT, SEP
Trauma can live in the body unaddressed for a lifetime. It impacts every aspect of the person’s experience, from health concerns to psychological instability to insecurities in achieving life goals. Working through trauma is the single most important piece in establishing a more harmonious life perspective. Adults often can’t identify the source of their anxieties because it is buried in childhood experience. Or, they know the source, but addressing the impact of trauma has been elusive.
Whether you identify a single traumatic experience in your life or you experience the result through a highly strung nervous system, trauma can be addressed through working with the sensations of the body.
I was originally trained in Somatic Psychotherapy and have over 25 years of working with the language of the body. This is done through mindful observation of the body’s experience in the here and now and through expressive art and movement therapy as well as talking through the event itself. The resolution comes from a place of self-love and resiliency is built by building support in one’s life.

Tilley Fine
Life Coach, Certified Conscious Parent Coach CPMCP™, Clinical Certification for Stress, Anxiety and Self-Regulation
I have suffered from debilitating anxiety in the past, so much so that I normalized it. If you are feeling stressed, anxious or depressed and on the hamster wheel of life where we 'push through' to get through the day, you are most likely stuck in a pattern that is stored in your body.
At my practice, I'm driven by a profound purpose to guide you into healing at the deepest level by allowing you to become your own agent of change. This begins with understanding your patterns and why you are stuck in these cycles. Then, by establishing safety, you can begin to heal.
I offer a unique blend of traditional coaching and therapy merged with spiritual, scientific, and practical methodologies. I firmly believe that anxiety, depression, health ailments, digestion issues, and sleep disturbances can be effectively addressed through somatic practices, starting with the nervous system.

Vanessa Wolter Holistic Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I have extensive experience working with anxiety. I help clients understand that their anxiety is a way they have protected themselves. And once we understand what it’s trying to protect them and why I then offer other ways of supporting the underlying vulnerability that don’t get in the way of moving toward the life they want.

Anxiety Eliminated
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Health Coach, MBA
i have a 95% success rate with healing anxiety. There are key dietary components which must be assessed and, in hypnosis, are very easy to fix. Once the body is stabilized, we go on to identify childhood challenges and traumas that are related to the anxiety. These issues are released by being pulled out by their roots by a specialized combination of releasing and hypnotherapy techniques.

Some say anxiety is living in the future, while depression is living in the past. Some say a little anxiety is healthy, and without it we would have a difficult time being productive. What about when the anxiety is so intense that it rules your life? From the moment you wake until the moment you go to bed, and then you cannot sleep, because, still, it persists. Call or email me today to see how we can work together to bring down the level of anxiety to one that is manageable for you.
