Therapy for Anxiety

Do you feel like your anxiety is holding you back from embodying your best self and living life to your fullest potential?

You’ve been suffering in silence, trying to navigate your mental health alone. Anxiety has left you rooted in place, unable to take the next step in your life. You want to take back control of your life and regain the confidence to be your authentic self, but you need support and love.

You don’t have to continue to live in this cycle of anxiety, fear, and downward mental spirals.

Even though it may feel like it, anxiety is not the enemy. Anxiety will always be a part of life, but it’s possible for you to reach a place of acceptance and freedom where it doesn’t affect the decisions you make and get in the way of you being fully present and enjoying your life. Our emotions are central to our existence as humans and by developing a healthy relationship with your wide array of emotions, you will begin to improve the quality of your relationship with yourself and others. 

In therapy, you are no longer having to navigate your anxiety by yourself. With support and guidance, you will reclaim control over your emotions, enhance your self-esteem, and improve your ability to cope in stressful situations. Getting through your day with peace of mind and presence within yourself and your relationships is possible and in reach.

 

Together, we’ll focus on:

  • Understanding the root cause of your anxiety 

  • Improving your self-compassion, self-esteem, and self-talk 

  • Feeling confident in your ability to self-regulate and self-soothe 

  • Regaining a sense of control in your life and make decisions that are in line with your values and the life you dream of creating 

  • Learning effective coping strategies for managing your anxiety and facing life challenges

HOW WE’LL WORK TOGETHER

  • During this 15-minute call, we’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, what you hope to achieve, and how I can best support you on your journey. We will also utilize this time to answer any questions you may have.

  • During our first session, I’ll get to know you by asking questions and listening to you share about your current challenges. We’ll discuss your goals, conceptualize what’s going on, and identify what will be the most helpful path forward for you. Based on your goals, we will create an individualized treatment plan which will include your estimated length of treatment and frequency of sessions.

  • During our first month, we’ll spend an hour each week diving deeper into what has brought you to therapy by bringing awareness to the root cause of what is troubling you, while also actively working towards helping you experience relief from your anxiety and discomfort. As treatment continues, we’ll continue to meet on a consistent basis and continue addressing the root cause of your troubles. By addressing both the symptoms and the root of the symptoms, you will experience profound and long-term change

    “Prior to starting therapy with Tannaz I was crippled by my anxiety. I was having several panic attacks a week, sometimes daily, and I felt helpless. As a man and a professional in a highly competitive company, I couldn’t afford to not be ok or to show anyone that I was struggling. After just 3 months of working with Tannaz on a weekly basis, my panic attacks ceased. I no longer feel controlled by my anxiety and feel so much more confident and equipped in handling difficult situations and feelings. Tannaz and I have now been working together for 3 years; not because I have crippling anxiety or because I still have panic attacks, but because I enjoy taking care of myself in this way and the relationship I have built with Tannaz and myself through my therapeutic journey is something that has transformed and enriched my life.”

    "Prior to working with Tannaz, I had never sought out or received therapy however, it was the best decision I ever made. She’s facilitated my ability to be introspective in such a kind, supportive way that has led me to learn so much about myself and my relationships with others. She has provided a safe space continuously for me to divulge anything and everything that was or is going on in my life. Since working with Tannaz, I have experienced both personal and professional growth beyond what I thought would ever ensue. I am forever grateful!

  • T e s t i m o n i a l s

    "I had spoken to about half a dozen other therapists before meeting Tannaz. However, none could ever compare to her. She is the most compassionate, kind, patient and caring therapist I have ever had. From the minute I first met her, I knew I had finally found someone that truly cared about helping me. The kindness with which she speaks truly makes me feel safe and allows me to be honest not only with her but with myself. Before starting therapy I felt lost and overwhelmed by my emotions. Tannaz has provided me with a safe space where I can be myself and not feel judged. She has taught me to not be afraid of my emotions but rather embrace and accept them, as they are part of being human. Perhaps one of the things I struggled most with before starting therapy with Tannaz was self love; however, she has taught me to be kind and patient with myself. I would tend to focus on the things I couldn't do but Tannaz is always there to remind me of all the things I can and have done. I honestly don’t know where I would be without Tannaz. For anyone considering whether or not to start therapy with Tannaz- I say go for it! You have everything to gain.”

FAQs

 

  • It’s normal to experience anxiety on occasion. However, if you feel that your anxiety causes you to go down mental spirals and you often feel like you are living in your head, overthinking everything, and drained, then it may be time to seek support.

  • Experiencing worry is a part of being human, but when these thoughts or emotions start to impact your relationships and daily life, it may be time to seek support. Anxiety can manifest in different ways, for example:

    • Difficulty concentrating because your mind is focused on the present worry

    • Disrupted sleep schedule

    • Challenges with maintaining or building relationships

    • Physical symptoms, such as rapid breathing, increased heart rate, sweating, and/or feeling tired

  • To me, our therapeutic relationship is the most important part of our work together. I show up in sessions with you committed to our work and our relationship. We’ll take a closer look at the thoughts and narratives you’re experiencing around situations and yourself, and begin to challenge and restructure those thoughts and narratives as we create healthier patterns. We’ll look at particular physiologies and incorporate somatic and breath work. With support, you will learn to create psychological flexibility and tolerance to uncomfortable thoughts and feelings.
