Anxiety Treatment
North Denver | Colorado
Anxiety isn't just worrying too much. It's your nervous system stuck in overdrive, convinced there's danger even when you're safe. It's the racing thoughts at 3am, the physical tension you can't shake, the constant feeling that something bad is about to happen.
Maybe you've tried to "just relax" or "think positive," and it doesn't work. That's because anxiety lives in your body and nervous system, not just your thoughts. And when ADHD is part of the picture, anxiety often develops as a coping mechanism, your brain creating structure to manage executive dysfunction, your nervous system compensating for emotional dysregulation or time blindness.
Together, we'll work on:
Calming your body's stress response. We work with the nervous system directly through somatic approaches, not just by changing what you think.
Finding what's actually driving it. Whether your anxiety is managing ADHD symptoms, rooted in trauma, or keeping you on high alert for other reasons changes how we treat it. We figure out which it is.
Processing what's stuck. Through EMDR and somatic work, we help your body recognize when it's actually safe, so the alarm can turn down.
Building tools for when it shows up. Not just insight, but things you can use in the moment anxiety hits.
The goal isn't to never feel anxious again. The goal is to stop living in constant high-alert, to have your anxiety match actual situations, and to have tools that work when anxiety shows up.
