Anxiety Therapy

Start feeling more grounded, confident, and in control.

Anxiety shows up in a variety of ways, and can be very distressing in day-to-day life. It can look like constant racing thoughts, trouble sleeping, avoidance, perfectionism, irritability, or a daily sense of dread. Whether your anxiety feels like a low hum in the background of your life or an overwhelming daily experience, it can can get better and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

At GML Therapy, we offer personalized, research-backed therapy to treat anxiety that helps you understand the why behind your anxiety symptoms and gives you tools to manage it in ways that actually work.

Who Is Anxiety Therapy For?

Our anxiety therapy is for adolescents and adults who feel stuck in patterns of fear, worry, or self-doubt, including those who:

  • Overthink or replay situations or conversations constantly in their minds

  • Avoid situations that feel uncertain or uncomfortable

  • Struggle with decision-making and second-guessing themselves

  • Feel disconnected from themselves, their values and their desires

  • Feel exhausted by trying to “hold it all together”

  • Experience social anxiety, panic attacks, or chronic muscle tension

  • Crave more ease, self-trust, and emotional balance in their lives

Whether your anxiety is related to a recent life stressor, is always present, or shows up unpredictably, therapy can help you get to the root of it and navigate it effectively.

What Anxiety Symptoms Do We Treat?

We help people navigating a wide range of anxiety-related symptoms, including:

  • Generalized anxiety and constant worry

  • Panic attacks

  • Physiological symptoms like gastrointestinal issues, headaches, muscle tension, severe weight gain/loss, teeth grinding and sleep disturbance

  • Social anxiety and fear of judgment

  • Health anxiety such as excessive symptom checking or fear of contamination

  • Anxiety related to past or recent trauma

  • High-achieving perfectionism

  • Existential or spiritual anxiety

We also support those navigating anxiety alongside depression, burnout, or major life transitions.

Common Root Causes of Anxiety

Anxiety often doesn’t come out of nowhere. Some of the underlying contributors we explore in therapy include:

  • Chronic stress and lack of rest

  • Perfectionism or high self-criticism

  • Low self-esteem and self doubt

  • Early life experiences of unpredictability or emotional invalidation

  • Over-functioning or people-pleasing as a way to stay safe

  • Cultural or family pressures to “push through” discomfort

  • Trauma or unresolved fear-based beliefs

  • Difficulty identifying and expressing emotions

  • Living out of alignment with your values or needs

  • Hormonal, biochemical and genetic factors

Understanding these deeper patterns helps us treat anxiety at the source, and not just manage symptoms.

How Anxiety Therapy Helps

We tailor therapy to your unique needs, using evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT, mindfulness-based practices, and integrative lifestyle changes. These tools can help you:

  • Identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns

  • Learn how to regulate your nervous system and emotions

  • Increase self-trust and reduce avoidance

  • Improve boundaries and communication in relationships

  • Build routines and practices that help reduce stress and create a healthier environment

  • Build a stronger connection to your body, values, and sense of self

  • Reclaim peace, clarity, and a more grounded way of moving through the world

Our approach is warm, collaborative, and paced to meet you where you are. We also incorporate somatic, faith-based, or holistic elements if that aligns with your values.

You Don’t Have to Manage Anxiety Alone

Anxiety can make life feel smaller, harder, or more out of sync than it needs to be. Therapy can give you the insight and tools to feel more calm, connected, and capable.
