About This Service

Anxiety & Stress.

Anxiety is your nervous system doing its job too well. Stress is your life asking too much. Both are deeply human — and both can become unmanageable when they overwhelm sleep, mood, relationships, and your ability to function. The good news is that anxiety and stress are among the most treatable mental health concerns. With the right support, you can learn to work with your nervous system instead of against it.

Common signs we treat

  • Constant worry you can’t turn off
  • Racing heart or shortness of breath
  • Trouble falling or staying asleep
  • Feeling on edge or restless
  • Avoiding situations that feel overwhelming
  • Physical tension, headaches, or stomach issues
  • Difficulty concentrating
  • Irritability that surprises you
How We Work

A clear, collaborative approach.

Treatment isn’t something we do to you — it’s something we build together.

01

Understanding Your Patterns

We map out what triggers your anxiety, how it shows up in your body, and what keeps it going.

02

Evidence-Based Tools

Cognitive-behavioral techniques, grounding skills, and mindfulness — chosen for what fits your life.

03

Medication If Helpful

When appropriate, we discuss whether medication might support your work in therapy. Always your choice.

04

Sustainable Change

The goal isn’t just to manage anxiety — it’s to relate to your nervous system in a fundamentally different way.

Frequently Asked

Common questions.

Will I have to be on medication?

Not necessarily. Many patients find significant relief through therapy alone. Medication is one tool — we discuss it openly and only when it makes sense for your situation.

What if my anxiety is panic attacks?

Panic attacks are very treatable. We use a combination of education, exposure, and skill-building — with medication support when needed — to dramatically reduce their frequency and severity.

How quickly will I feel better?

Most patients notice a shift within the first 2–4 weeks of treatment. Lasting change typically takes 8–16 weeks of consistent work.

Is stress different from anxiety?

They overlap. Stress usually has an external cause (work, relationships, life events). Anxiety can persist even when the external cause has passed. We treat both.
