Misty Johnson
Counselor/Therapist, LCSW
The anxious mind takes us out of the present moment and into a future narrative that may or may not ever exist. We can learn how to anchor into the present moment again and again.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety is not a feeling so much as a state of being. Anxiety attaches it self to a variety of emotional states, adding energy and intensity to our thoughts and actions. There is NO eliminating anxiety. It is hardwired within us, a biological necessity for our survival as a species. Why do we try so hard to destroy it? Because, we reply, it is unpleasant, and disruptive, to our lives. So the key then is to manage it, to reduce its intensity, and to better understand when, where and why it erupts within us.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anxiety comes from the fear of getting hurt again or from the perpetual anxiety rooted in experiences of having been perpetually unsafe. In the first instance, the person fears that the source of their pain will happen again and tries to avoid it at all costs. In the second situation, the person looks out at the world and sees the worst possible scenario in everything. Regardless of what your anxieties or phobias are, we want you to know that you can overcome anxiety, emotionally stabilize, and regain control of your emotional and relational well being.

Robin Bates-Pualuan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
While it's good to think through potential outcomes, sometimes worry can overwhelm us. Perhaps you've always been a worrier or spent a lot of time on the "what ifs" and worst case scenarios in life. Or maybe you're a perfectionist, or have difficulty making decisions because you worry too much about what could go wrong. It's painful and un-productive to get caught up in an anxiety spiral. I can work with you on strategies for learning to tolerate the uncertainties in life and move forward toward your true values and desires.

Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in helping people who struggle with panic attacks, social anxiety, health anxiety, generalized anxiety, and phobias.
Anxiety:
You’ve always been a worrier and it’s helped you set and achieve your goals. Lately though, it’s interfering with your work and personal life. It feels like you spend all your time worrying about your career or health or relationships, and less time enjoying those things.
Anxiety doesn’t always look like worrying, sometimes it can show up as disturbed sleep, stomach problems, or irritability. Some people procrastinate, others overwork. Anxiety can even come in the form of specific phobias: intense fears of objects or situations that make your heart race and your stomach drop.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ll teach you skills for working with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so you can reclaim your life from anxiety and move towards the nourishing connections you crave.
Panic Attacks & Agoraphobia:
You’re feeling anxious, frustrated, and confused by your experience of sudden rushes of fear accompanied by worry that you’re having a heart attack, dying, going insane, losing control, having a nervous breakdown, or fainting. During these episodes your heart feels like it’s about to burst out of your chest, you feel short of breath, your mouth is dry, you may also be sweating, trembling, shaking, nauseous, hot or cold, dizzy, lightheaded, numb or tingly, and feeling detached from yourself or from reality. These episodes of intense fear are called panic attacks.
Your life may have gotten smaller as you have started avoiding or feeling very anxious in situations because you worry that you might have another panic attack and feel trapped, helpless, or embarrassed. For example, you may fear being in open or enclosed spaces, crowded places, standing in line, or using public transit. Avoiding situations from which escape might be difficult or where help may be unavailable is called agoraphobia.
Panic attacks and agoraphobia are symptoms of panic disorder. Panic disorder traps you in a vicious cycle that begins when you believe the accompanying physical sensations are dangerous. Over time, these beliefs place more attention on physical symptoms which triggers more fear, which perpetuates the panic cycle.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ll teach you skills for working with thoughts and behaviors so you can break the panic cycle.
