Anxiety Therapy for Adults and College Students Feeling Stuck, Overwhelmed, or On Edge
Even high-functioning adults and students can feel frozen by anxiety, overthinking, or the constant pressure of daily life. You might appear capable and put-together to others, but inside, your mind races, your body feels tense, and even ordinary situations feel overwhelming.
Many clients come to therapy wanting to feel calm, confident, and in control again..free from the physical tension, replayed conversations, and anticipatory worry that rule their day.
As a therapist, I help adults and college-aged clients understand what’s happening beneath the surface of their anxiety, develop tools to respond differently, and regain a sense of control over their mind and body. My goal is to help clients feel grounded, capable, and able to navigate school, work, and relationships with confidence.
How I Help
In our work together, we focus on understanding how your nervous system, thoughts, and past experiences influence your anxiety. This includes:
Identifying triggers and patterns of worry or avoidance
Learning practical skills to regulate your nervous system and calm your body
Challenging negative thought patterns that keep you stuck
Practicing real-life situations that feel anxiety-provoking, like speaking up, setting boundaries, or navigating work or school stress
Therapeutic Approaches
My work is informed by evidence-based approaches for anxiety and trauma-informed care, including:
- Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – identifying and challenging unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety, and replacing them with practical, grounded strategies.
- Mindfulness-Based Techniques – helping clients become more aware of the present moment, regulate emotions, and reduce rumination and overthinking.
- Trauma-Informed Care – understanding how past experiences, including relational or childhood trauma, shape nervous system responses and anxiety patterns.
- Exposure & Skill-Building Exercises – practicing real-life situations that trigger anxiety, building confidence, and learning that you can handle stress without panic.
These approaches allow us to explore both the mental and physical components of anxiety while developing tools clients can use in school, work, or social situations.
