Anxiety Therapy

 

Is Anxiety Quietly Running the Show?

Do you find yourself constantly on edge—even when things seem “fine”?
Are you caught in an endless loop of overthinking, self-doubt, or worry that just won’t shut off?
Maybe you’re doing well on the outside—holding it all together at work, showing up for your relationships—but inside, it feels like you’re always buzzing, bracing for the worst, or being weighed down.

Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic attacks or obvious stress. For many people, especially those who are reflective and emotionally attuned, it shows up as perfectionism, irritability, indecision, or exhaustion. You might find yourself pushing through each day, but joy feels fleeting and rest doesn’t really feel restorative.

Whether it’s affecting your sleep, straining your closest relationships, or making you feel disconnected from yourself, anxiety has a way of hijacking your sense of peace.

The good news is that with the support of the right anxiety therapist, you can begin to feel grounded, clear, and more in control of your life. Anxiety therapy can help you get there.

You're Not Alone in This

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health struggles—and it can show up in all kinds of ways.  Many of the clients I see for anxiety therapy here in Boulder and Denver are thoughtful, emotionally aware, and deeply reflective. They care about their relationships, personal growth, and showing up with integrity in their lives. But even with all that self-awareness, anxiety can still take hold—leaving them feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or like they’re walking through life holding their breath.

Sometimes anxiety stems from transitions, overextension, or constant pressure to be “on.” Other times, it’s tied to deeper experiences—early moments of not feeling safe, understood, or emotionally supported. And often, people feel confused or frustrated that despite all their insight and effort, they still feel stuck in anxious patterns.

But anxiety isn’t a personal failure—it’s your nervous system doing its best to protect you. And with the right anxiety therapy, it can learn new ways to respond.

Anxiety Therapy Can Help You Feel Like Yourself Again

When anxiety starts to impact your relationships, your work, your capacity to feel joy, or even just your ability to take a deep breath—it’s time to pause and get curious. Anxiety counseling offers that space.

I offer anxiety treatment through an attachment-based lens, helping clients across Colorado—including Boulder, Denver, and beyond—gently uncover the emotional and relational roots of their distress. In our work together, we’ll explore not just the symptoms of your anxiety, but the story underneath it. We’ll work at a pace that feels safe and manageable—always with the goal of helping you feel more empowered and less hijacked by anxiety.

You might be someone who knows how to “push through.” But anxiety therapy gives you the space to slow down, get honest, and start shifting things from the inside out.

Some of the ways we might work together include:

  • Exploring your inner world with compassion and curiosity, rather than judgment

  • Learning tools to regulate anxiety in the moment—like breathwork, mindfulness, or somatic grounding

  • Using EMDR to process and release past experiences that still live in the body

  • Strengthening self-trust and boundaries so you can show up in your relationships and your work from a place of clarity, not fear

  • Reconnecting to joy and what makes you feel most alive and grounded

Clients often tell me that therapy gives them a kind of inner permission they didn’t even know they needed. With the support of a compassionate anxiety therapist, anxiety becomes less of a controller and more of a signal—something we can listen to, learn from, and help quiet.

I bring a grounded, nonjudgmental presence to our sessions. My clients describe feeling deeply seen and understood—often for the first time in a long while. Whether you're navigating chronic stress, relationship anxiety, or big life transitions, I’ll meet you with warmth, honesty, and the belief that healing is not just possible—it’s already starting, just by you showing up here.

But What If…

I’m functioning okay—do I really need therapy?

Just because you’re getting through the day doesn’t mean you’re thriving. If anxiety is taking up mental or emotional bandwidth that could otherwise be spent on connection, creativity, or rest, that’s reason enough. Therapy isn’t just for crisis—it’s for growth.

I don’t want to feel like I’m just talking about my feelings every week.

Totally fair. While talking is part of therapy, we also focus on practical tools, nervous system regulation, and deeper healing modalities like EMDR for anxiety when it’s right for you. The goal isn’t just insight—it’s transformation.

What if I don’t even know where to start?

That’s okay. You don’t need to have it all figured out before you begin. My role is to help guide the process and create a space where things can unfold safely and naturally. All you need is the willingness to show up—we’ll take it from there.

You Don’t Have to Keep Managing Alone

If anxiety is getting in the way of you living the life you want—with presence, connection, and a sense of ease—I’d be honored to dig into the work with you to help you get there.

Whether you’re located in Boulder, Denver, or anywhere else in Colorado, therapy can help you feel more like yourself again.
