Christi Young, LPC

Do you struggle with racing thoughts, constant worry, or panic attacks that interfere with your daily life?

For many adults, anxiety becomes more than just a temporary feeling—it becomes a way of life. It affects how you think, how you relate to others, and how you make decisions. If you feel overwhelmed, on edge, or exhausted by the nonstop tension in your mind and body, you're not alone—and healing is possible.

I offer compassionate, evidence-based anxiety therapy for adults seeking relief from chronic worry, fear, and inner chaos. Whether your anxiety has a clear origin or feels like a mystery, therapy can help you reclaim peace and clarity.

​

How Anxiety Affects Your Life

​

Anxiety doesn't just live in your thoughts—it can show up in your relationships, your physical health, your sleep patterns, and your ability to focus or make decisions. Over time, anxiety can begin to control your choices and your sense of self.

You might relate to these experiences:

• A sense of internal chaos and emotional unpredictability

• Difficulty focusing or following through on daily tasks

• Avoiding social situations or relationships due to fear or overstimulation

• Trouble distinguishing between wise caution and irrational fear

• A lack of confidence in your ability to make healthy decisions

• Racing thoughts or panic that disrupt sleep, work, or daily functioning

​

Anxiety can be exhausting, isolating, and deeply frustrating. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.

​

Why Does Anxiety Happen?

​

Anxiety can stem from many sources. For some, it begins after a specific life event, such as:

​

• A traumatic experience

• A medical emergency

• A painful breakup or relationship rupture

• Chronic stress or burnout

​

For others, anxiety develops slowly and may feel hard to explain. You may have grown up in a high-pressure or unpredictable environment. Or you may carry perfectionistic tendencies or high-functioning anxiety that push you to stay busy while feeling emotionally drained inside.

​

Whatever the origin, your story matters—and therapy can help you understand the root of your anxiety, not just manage the symptoms.

Therapy for Anxiety – A Safe, Grounded Space to Heal

​

In our sessions, I offer a calm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can slow down and explore the inner experiences that fuel your anxiety. Together, we’ll look at the emotional, mental, and relational patterns that keep you stuck—and gently begin to shift them.

​

You’ll learn how to:

​

• Recognize your anxiety triggers

• Understand the deeper emotions underneath your fears

• Learn evidence-based calming techniques to soothe your nervous system

• Rebuild trust in your own decisions, boundaries, and emotional needs

• Move from fear-based living to a life rooted in clarity, confidence, and peace

​

Therapy Approaches I Use for Anxiety

​

My integrative approach is tailored to your unique needs and may include the following modalities:

​

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

​

CBT helps you identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts that feed anxiety. You’ll learn practical tools to challenge fearful thinking and regain control of your internal narrative.

​

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

​

EFT helps you understand the emotional experiences underneath your anxiety—often fear of rejection, abandonment, or disconnection—and teaches you how to respond with compassion rather than panic.

​

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

​

EMDR is especially effective for anxiety tied to trauma, medical fear, or past relational harm. It helps your brain reprocess memories so they no longer trigger anxiety in the present.

​

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

​

IFS explores the different “parts” of you that might feel anxious, fearful, or overwhelmed. You’ll learn to nurture and lead from your grounded self, rather than reacting from fear.
