Anxiety or Fears
S. Abigail McCarrel : Welcome Home Family Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, DCSW
Fear and anxiety originate in the most primitive levels of the brain. We come into this world with very strong survival instincts genetically encoded over the eons to make sure that we survive as a species. The problem is, however, our society has evolved much more quickly than our brains. As a result, we are consistently tricked by our brains into believing that there is a mortal threat, when there is none. These primitive sensations are interpreted by the feeling part of our brain as a danger sign, and we act accordingly. In our work together, folks will be learning strategies, including brain balancing movements, to integrate those primitive reflexes and calm down the stress response. The result is a steadier state, where one can accurately assess and respond with just the right amount of arousal to match the situation. Fear and anxiety decrease as the brain grows stronger and more connected.

Anxiety or Fears
Elaine Quattro
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Don’t listen when worry calls your name. Worry is a habit with a neuro biological underpinning. Learn to have awareness when worry starts [“That’s just my anxious brain firing wrong”]. Use the first sign of worry as a cue to use techniques such as positive self-talk, thought stopping, or deep breathing to manage your anxiety.

Anxiety or Fears
Lindy Bornstein
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I can help you learn how to manage your anxiety and fears. We live in a culture that values overworking and high productivity, leading many of us to struggle with perfectionism and burnout. Therapy can help you prioritize yourself by finding ways to get support and fill your cup, so you can better cope with life's challenges.
We’ll practice several approaches to see which ones fit best for you. Some of these approaches include breath work and muscle relaxation techniques, mindfulness, strategies to challenge anxious thoughts, and self-compassion practice. We’ll explore dynamics in your relationships and family to learn more about your anxiety happening today. We’ll also brainstorm ways to build community in the face of oppression, identifying what is within and outside of our control.

Anxiety or Fears
Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anxiety can be like a heavy fog, clouding our vision and weighing us down. But, as a therapist, I believe that together we can navigate through this fog and find the path to inner peace. By delving into the root causes of your anxiety and exploring practical strategies, we can work collaboratively to find a sense of calm amidst the chaos. Together, drawing from the wisdom of Eastern philosophy, mindfulness practices, and ancient stoic principles, we can explore new ways to calm the mind and the soul. This journey towards inner peace and self-discovery is something we'll undertake together, as equals, walking side by side.

I focus on persistent feelings such as worry, physical arousal or edginess, and avoidance which can trigger an array of negative feelings that interfere with daily functioning. I work through thinking, feeling, thought and behavior patterns that negatively impact symptoms of anxiety.

Anxiety or Fears
Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
General anxiety and fears are one way our central nervous system adapts to perceived threats. When our anxiety or fear doesn't seem to "settle down" easily, it can make everyday life terribly difficult. I utilize EMDR as a primary tool to help your nervous system "reset" and addresses the negative experiences that tend to feed anxiety and fear.
