Anxiety often manifests in physiological symptoms, so often it is useful to work with the body (implement breath work, movement, and embodied mindfulness) to help ease anxiety symptoms.

Stephen B. Lewis Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Using hypnosis I help train your mind to direct the power of your imagination towards relaxation instead of worry. The connections from your mind to your body that can cause physically exhausting reactions to irrational fears or phobias can instead be used to calm your mood, relax your body, and clear your mind.

Lisa Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Is your anxiety productive sometimes? Fears of what others think of you or worrying about letting others down can fuel working long hours, over-preparing, and perfectionist tendencies. However, anxiety can also lead to procrastination, a harsh inner critic, running the tape of past conversations on repeat, over-eating, or troubles sleeping. Sometimes the worries seem endless and the angst leads to physical discomfort, neck/shoulder tension, and stomach pains. Fortunately, research shows CBT can improve anxiety symptoms within 8-12 sessions.

Eric van der Voort
Psychologist, PsyD, CST, CSWT
Anxiety is a normal and adaptive emotion we all experience from time to time. However, persistent generalized worry should not be written off as part of a healthy human experience. Problematic anxiety can affect your work and school performance, prevent you from connecting with loved ones, have you imagining all the awful “what-if” scenarios, and leave you second-guessing yourself. Anxiety can also make you irritable, disrupt your sleep, and even take a physical toll on you over time. Physical symptoms, such as a racing heart, sweaty palms, or tightness in the chest are common. At its worst, some people experience debilitating panic attacks.
If you have been struggling with anxiety, the good news is that it can be treated with evidence-based therapies. Imagine going to that social event, your job, or school, and not being consumed with fear or apprehension. What if you could be comfortable in your own skin? I’d say that’s a “what if” scenario worth thinking about.

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.
