Anxiety Therapists in 64102

You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or carrying the weight of abuse and trama through life. Issues like these weigh you down as you continue to fulfill your roles at work, at home, and in your relationships. These struggles may be new to you, or you may have carried them alone for years. Perhaps you've even reached out for help but not yet found the right fit, yet you long to break through these challenges and feel like yourself again.

Hello, I'm Kate. I would describe myself as a warm, experienced, and empathetic psychotherapist. My flexible, integrative approach allows me to confidently work with a variety of ages and concerns, including: anxiety, depression, OCD, family conflict, relationship difficulties, issues of spirituality, and more. Additionally, I have advanced training and experience in working with disordered eating.

I help people who have survived painful life experiences to finally break free from the toxic residues of their pasts. My clients come to me locked within cycles of flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, addiction, regret, anger, and/or shame and also deal with chronic self-esteem problems. In some cases, they may even feel their identity has been shattered or they have a fragmented sense of who they now are. Clients leave treatment with me feeling empowered, resilient, healthy and whole. They have a new lease on life because what they have been through is reprocessed and becomes strengths and proof of how amazing they really are.

You are a successful career woman who is fighting anxiety every stinking day. You say “yes” without considering your schedule or your needs. You worry all of the time about what others think about you and you tend to act differently depending on who you are around. You are scared of being rejected or abandoned, and you spend way too much time in your head replaying conversations you’ve had, fearful that you said something wrong. You doubt yourself frequently and hate to make decisions! Your body has a lot of tension and you’ve been to your doctor or an ER because you thought you were having a heart attack. Time to invest in you.

As a REAL sports psychologist, I have a unique practice in that I specialize in working with athletes who have the desire to take their game to the next level. Being a competitive athlete helps me relate to other competitive people in sports or business. My primary focus is on confidence building and the elimination of performance anxiety. I use a 3 tiered approach to training: Perspective Training, Mental Skills Training, and Applied Settings (if applicable at a sporting location). I am the only professional to offer that kind of travel service. We also offer Coaching Certification Programs for those who are interested in teaching.

Perhaps you - or you and your partner - are standing on a threshold, a doorway between the life you have known and the life ahead of you. You may feel disconnected from yourself, from what used to give your life meaning, from that spark that used to enliven your relationship. You are walking in the dark, overwhelmed by the unknown, maybe feeling depressed or anxious, or both. I am here to sit with you in that scary, and sometimes exciting space, to help you be attentive to your deepest needs, fears, and longings, to communicate clearly and gently, and to uncover the deep well of wisdom and love that lies within and between you.

I specialize in providing therapy for individuals experiencing Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMAD's). Clients I meet with are typically experiencing exhaustion, lack of motivation, low self-esteem and trouble bonding with their child(ren).

My joy comes from working with individuals at various stages and challenges of life; childhood, teens, college, and adulthood. I provide a playful and collaborative environment for adults, parents, and children alike looking to explore the tough stuff as well as the normal day to day bumps. My goal is to make every client and caregiver feel worthy and capable of well-being. I work with a wide variety of issues across the lifespan such as vicarious trauma in professionals, sexual and domestic abuse, childhood abuse or trauma, attachment trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.

Do you or your child struggle with anxiety and lack a sense of self? Does this affect the ability to function or to connect with others? Do you feel exhausted and overwhelmed by the thought that there’s no light at the end of the tunnel? Do you wonder if relationships with others could be better? Now more than ever, people are feeling uncertain about finding stability and safety in relationships with those they care about.

I am very passionate about establishing a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients and creating a safe, non- judgmental space so my clients can explore their feelings, behaviors and thoughts. I know therapy can be intimidating and scary, but together we will help gain back control of your life.

On the outside it seems like you have it all together, but inside it feels like you are falling apart. You’re tired of lacking confidence in yourself and feeling alone in your struggles. You feel guilty about the frustration and overwhelm you feel each day. It’s like you’re the one carrying all the weight. You’ve worked hard for success, but you aren't living the authentic life you hoped for, and you’ve basically resigned yourself to the idea that you may never find the fulfillment in relationships that you’ve found in your career.

It’s natural to wonder if and how change is possible, especially when feeling confused, uncertain, and, oftentimes, alone. Chances are that you have already tried many things to help yourself and want to know how therapy can help you find what you are seeking.

Hi, I'm Brandon. I believe that the client comes first in the therapy process and is most successful when they are met with unwavering support.

I am currently on maternity leave and have a waitlist for new patients upon my return. My approach to counseling is rooted in relational psychoanalytic work and engages people as their whole selves. I attend to your past experiences as well as what is happening in the room. This includes what is coming up in your thoughts, feelings, and body.

Sometimes we have experiences that make us feel different, out of place, foreign and even unwelcome. Life can bring challenges, pain, and experiences that do not always make sense to us. It's easy to become trapped in those moments, in need of help. I believe in being someone who will listen with unconditional positive regard, without judgement, to you and your story. I seek to help you see your situation from a different vantage point in order to discover something new about yourself and your world.

I truly believe we are all capable of emotional well-being, and inherently possess the skills and tools needed to thrive. However, sometimes trauma, life stressors or transitions, or the weight of emotional challenges can make it difficult to find or recall those tools and skills. I practice therapy from a person-centered approach, which means that I believe you are the expert on yourself, and my role is to partner with you as we work to rediscover those skills and strengths that may feel as though they have been lost. We are not meant to be "fixed", we simply sometimes need support in finding our way back to ourselves.

Immediate Availability - I'll contact you within 1 business day of an inquiry. Day after day, moment after moment, you feel stuck. Like you’re supposed to be going somewhere, but not really going anywhere. You’re successful, but the success hasn’t brought the purpose you were expecting it to. You feel like you should have it all together - and on the outside, it might even look that way. But on the inside? You feel so close to falling apart. You find yourself uncertain of who you are, exhausted by everyday life, and sometimes you even feel like an imposter.
