Anxiety Therapy Colorado
Virtual Therapy
Learn how to slow down your anxious thoughts and regain clarity.
Specializing in complex trauma and prolonged grief, I help adults who survived unpredictable, emotionally unsafe, or high-pressure environments and now find themselves living with chronic anxiety. Many of my clients are successful professionals, caregivers, and high achievers who appear capable on the outside but feel exhausted by constant worry, hypervigilance, overthinking, people-pleasing, or difficulty relaxing. By combining trauma-informed therapy with education about coercive control, emotional manipulation, and unhealthy relationship dynamics, I help clients understand why their nervous system remains on alert. Together, we work to reduce anxiety, increase emotional regulation, and develop a greater sense of safety, confidence, and peace in daily life.

You Are Here for a Reason
Anxiety has been part of your daily life for a while. You may have learned how to push through it, explain it away, or tell yourself it is “just stress,” but deep down, you recognize that anxiety has been taking up more space in your life than you want it to. Reaching this point—where you can finally name what has been happening—is an important step, because you cannot begin changing what you are still trying to ignore.
The fact that you are here means you are already moving toward that change, and even small steps toward honesty and healing can begin to loosen anxiety’s grip on your life.
Trauma- and grief-informed anxiety therapy is meant for you if you are ready to uncover roots and give fresh air to old wounds. This work is about more than changing thoughts.

How to Treat Anxiety
Anxiety Has Different Causes
Anxiety treatment is never one-size-fits-all. Together, we will explore your current patterns and personal history to better understand the root causes of your anxiety. Effective treatment often involves a thoughtful combination of approaches, tailored to your unique needs and experiences.
The Past
Trauma, a high ACE score, damaging relationships, the death of a loved one, or difficult life adjustments can all have a lasting impact on the nervous system. When the body becomes stuck in a fight-or-flight response, it may need intentional support to relearn what safety feels like. In these situations, trauma-informed anxiety therapy can play a vital role in helping the brain and body regulate, heal, and restore a sense of stability.
The Present
Recognizing the factors in your current environment that contribute to constant alertness, a sense of threat, or insecurity is an important step in reducing anxiety symptoms. Lasting relief from racing thoughts often begins with identifying what is keeping you on edge and building a greater sense of control around those stressors. As these influences become clearer, we work together to address what is within your control and create a greater sense of safety and stability.
Sleep Anxiety
Sometimes anxiety intensifies at night, making it difficult to rest. It may show up as racing thoughts that magnify every worry, nightmares that disrupt sleep, or nocturnal panic attacks that leave you feeling unsettled and exhausted. Anxiety therapy helps retrain the brain’s response patterns so these distressing reactions decrease over time.
Anxiety vs. Panic
Anxiety and panic attacks are similar, but have a few distinct differences. Both can feel frightening, overwhelming, and disruptive, yet they differ in how they begin, how long they last, which symptoms are most pronounced, and how they affect a person’s thoughts and body. Understanding the difference can help guide you toward the support that will be most helpful.
Trauma and Anxiety
A significant number of people who suffer from anxiety and panic disorder have experienced a traumatic event (a singular event, or an extended period of threat and harm). A therapist trained in acute and complex trauma (cPTSD) can incorporate trauma-informed tools into anxiety treatment.
