South Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
South Psychology, based in Centennial, Colorado, specializes in providing evidence-based mental health therapy for individuals dealing with anxiety or fears. Their skilled clinicians employ a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP). Let’s delve into the details:
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): ERP is a powerful technique used to treat anxiety disorders, particularly obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It aims to gradually reduce anxiety by exposing individuals to triggering stimuli or thoughts in a safe and controlled environment. Through repeated exposure, people become less physiologically aroused by these triggers, leading to habituation. The response prevention component teaches clients not to give in to compulsive behaviors, ultimately breaking the cycle of anxiety and avoidance.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): South Psychology integrates CBT principles to help clients understand and manage their anxious thoughts. By identifying cognitive distortions and challenging irrational beliefs, individuals learn healthier coping strategies. CBT equips them with practical tools to navigate anxiety-inducing situations, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall well-being.
Optimizing Functioning: Beyond symptom reduction, South Psychology focuses on optimizing various aspects of life. Whether it’s excelling in school, advancing in a career, or nurturing social connections, their approach aims to empower clients to thrive despite anxiety or fears.

However, when these feelings become overwhelming and start to interfere with daily life, it may be time to seek help. Counseling and therapy can provide valuable support and tools for managing anxiety and fears, helping individuals to regain a sense of control and improve their overall well-being.

Through a combination of talk therapy, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices, I help clients learn to reframe their negative thoughts, manage stress and anxiety, and build skills for facing their fears. With my guidance and support, clients can learn to develop a sense of calm and inner peace, even in the face of difficult challenges.
If you are struggling with anxiety or fears, know that you don't have to face these challenges alone.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
Anxiety and fears involve intolerance of uncertainty and thoughts of worst-case-scenario predictions. Avoiding and escaping situations and the physical and emotional feelings only make anxiety worse. CBT is an empirically-validated, effective treatment for anxiety and fears.
