You’re Not Broken — You’re Overwhelmed

If anxiety is affecting your sleep, your relationships, your work, or your ability to enjoy life, it doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It means your nervous system has been working overtime, trying to keep you safe.

Therapies that Help with Stress & Anxiety

  • CBT is a widely used approach that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors related to anxiety. Therapists work with clients to develop healthier coping strategies and problem-solving skills, aiming to reduce anxiety symptoms by addressing distorted thinking. The structured format of CBT helps individuals gain practical skills for managing their anxiety in daily life.

  • IFS is a therapeutic approach that views the mind as a system of distinct "parts," each representing different emotions and experiences. By identifying and understanding these parts, clients can address internal conflicts that contribute to their anxiety. This process fosters self-compassion and allows individuals to integrate their feelings, leading to greater emotional regulation.

  • EFT emphasizes the importance of emotional connection and attachment in relationships, making it a beneficial therapy for those with anxiety. It helps clients articulate their emotions and needs while improving interpersonal communication. By fostering secure attachment, EFT can alleviate feelings of

  • Brainspotting is a relational therapy that helps clients access and process trauma and distressing emotions by focusing on specific eye positions. This method allows individuals to uncover and release unresolved feelings that may contribute to their anxiety. It's a powerful approach to enhance emotional healing and promote deeper self-awareness.

  • MBSR combines mindfulness meditation and yoga to help individuals develop present-moment awareness. This approach teaches clients how to observe their thoughts and feelings without judgment, promoting relaxation and decreasing anxiety. By fostering mindfulness, individuals can learn to respond to stressors more effectively and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

  • EMDR helps reduce anxiety by allowing the brain to reprocess distressing memories in a way that lessens their emotional intensity. Through guided bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, tapping, or sounds—the therapy activates both hemispheres of the brain, helping clients integrate past experiences and reduce the physiological stress response. Over time, anxiety triggers lose their charge, allowing for greater calm, clarity, and resilience.
