Anxiety or Fears
Dr. Glenn Francis
Marriage and Family Therapist, Psy.D., MFT
Anxiety is helped by taking care of a few basics. We can give careful attention to what is in our thoughts -- are they catastrophic, hopeless, or distorted in other ways, making us anxious? Noticing our thoughts, and editing our thought-stream to become more realistic can bring us back to the present moment, and more ease. The second basic is to make sure that we are breathing more like babies, from the abdomen, and less like desperate people running away from tigers. Fight or flight breathing makes us anxious, and anxiety makes us breathe like desperate people. More realistic thoughts and better breathing are very helpful for anxiety.

Robynne OByrne
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anxiety is perhaps the most common and distressing affliction from which people suffer. Anxiety has both neurological and psychological roots. In my work, I help my clients sort through the underlying causes of their anxiety and determine what
interventions will be most effective. We focus on the somatic underpinnings of anxiety and learn practical and simple ways of
managing and relieving anxiety.

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.

The tools that I'll provide you with are tools that I have been perfecting over my career helping people just like you. I have dozens of them.

So no matter where you go, you'll always have access to discreet exercises that can quickly create relief. I am direct and solution focused. We'll work collaboratively to address the anxiety attacks that are bothering you right now. We'll start with what's going on in the moment and how to get control over your body and thoughts. For the past 10 years, my practice has been focused on helping people get rid of anxiety. I have attended trainings that teach leading edge techniques. We'll address what's going on in your brain when you feel anxious and how to get in touch with different parts of your brain to find relief. We'll discuss what happens to your body when fear takes over so you can learn how to quickly calm down. You'll gain resilience so that attacks don't continue in the future.

Jeffrey Gianelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I know what it is like to struggle with issues like anxiety, and chronic stress. I do not try out things in therapy with you that I have not gone through myself. Anxiety can be such a struggle, feeling like a huge weight that never goes away. But it doesn't have to stop you from living the life you want to live. You don't have to be ruled by your anxiety anymore! We can work together to understand it better, where it is coming from, what it wants, and learn tools and skills to help you work with yourself instead of against yourself.

Miriam Adrianowicz
Psychologist, PsyD
We all experience anxiety at certain points in our lives. But, when it gets to the point where it is interfering with your ability to life your life the way you want to, then therapy may be helpful. Whether you are experiencing a more general/diffuse sense of anxiety, acute panic attacks, or specific phobias, we can work together to learn coping strategies and self-soothing exercises to deal with your symptoms; but, in moments when the anxiety is not too overwhelming, we can also explore where it may have come from, helping you understand why you feel the way you do. Self-understanding hopefully will lead to a greater senes of control and agency.
