Anxiety Therapy
for anxiety support
Sometimes, anxiety feels loud and consuming,
And other times, it's quieter, but always there, lingering in the background.
​
It might show up as overthinking,
a constant sense of "what if,"
or a feeling of being on edge in your own body.
​
You might notice:
racing or looping thoughts,
difficulty switching off or relaxing,
feeling emotionally or physically on edge,
feeling overwhelmed by small or everyday things,
trouble sleeping, resting, or feeling present,
seeking reassurance, avoiding uncertainty, or staying constantly prepared.
​
Anxiety is often your system trying to anticipate, protect, and prepare,
shaped through past experiences, stress, environments, relationships
It is a protective system, trying to keep you safe,
even if it no longer feels helpful.
​
In therapy together, we work gently and collaboratively to understand
not only the symptoms of anxiety, but the underlying patterns, fears,
and protective strategies that may be driving it.
​
Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused lens,
we explore how anxiety may be connected to earlier experiences,
relationship dynamics, self-worth, perfectionism,
or a nervous system that has spent a long time in survival mode.
​​
Alongside developing practical coping strategies,
we look to build a deeper sense of emotional safety, self-understanding,
and steadiness within yourself.
​
Our work may include:
understanding triggers and nervous system responses,
exploring attachment patterns and relational anxiety,
building emotional regulation and grounding skills,
working through fear, overwhelm, or self-criticism,
gently processing unresolved experiences or trauma,
creating new ways of responding to uncertainty and vulnerability.
​
I integrate approaches such as EMDR, ACT, DBT, attachment-focused therapy,
and nervous-system informed practices, to begin to slow things down,
find new ways of relating to anxiety, and make sense of your experience.
