Anxiety Therapy

What is Anxiety Therapy?

Anxiety therapy is a collaborative, brain-and-body approach to help you calm the alarm, untangle worry loops, and rebuild trust in yourself. We’ll combine practical skills (nervous-system regulation, thought tools, behavioral experiments) with deeper work (attachment patterns, core beliefs, past stressors) so relief is both immediate and lasting. The goal isn’t to become “fearless”—it’s to feel resourced, steady, and free to live the life you choose.

How anxiety often shows up

Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic. It can be:

  • Constant “what-if” thinking and worst-case spirals

  • Tight chest, knot in stomach, headaches, poor sleep

  • Overplanning, overworking, people-pleasing to feel safe

  • Irritability, perfectionism, decision fatigue, procrastination

  • Avoiding the very things that matter—because discomfort feels unmanageable

Think of anxiety therapy as retraining your inner alarm system.

  1. Soothe the body – Learn grounding, breath, and sensory skills that turn down physiological arousal so your thinking brain can come back online.

  2. Update the story – Spot anxious thinking patterns (catastrophizing, all-or-nothing, mind-reading) and replace them with balanced, reality-tested perspectives.

  3. Rebuild confidence through action – Gradual, guided experiments (exposures) show your brain you can do hard things safely.

  4. Heal the roots – When helpful, we’ll explore earlier experiences and relational templates that taught your system to stay on high alert—and gently revise them.

You don’t have to tell your whole life story to get relief. We work at your pace, with clear structure and choice at every step.
