Anxiety Therapy For Women and Teen Girls
Building the capacity to stay present in Santa Rosa and across California
The thinking doesn't stop. You're in a conversation and already three steps ahead of it. You're in bed and your brain is running through tomorrow, next week, the thing you said three years ago that you still can't let go of.
Your body has been trying to tell you something for a while. The tightness, the restlessness, the feeling that something is slightly wrong even when everything is technically fine. Most women I work with have gotten pretty good at overriding those signals and adding another thing to the list.
Anxiety in women often looks really competent from the outside. Prepared, thorough, on top of it. What's happening underneath is a different story. The constant worst case scenario running in the background. The conclusion you've already jumped to before anyone has said anything. The feeling that you have to earn rest, earn enough, earn your place in the room.
The mental loop that won't quit even when things are fine
Snapping at people and knowing exactly why but not being able to stop
Waking up already braced for something
Your body hasn't felt relaxed in a long time
Anxiety is usually a messenger. We get curious about what it needs, what it's afraid would happen if it stopped protecting you. That curiosity is often where things start to shift.
We talk. We look at how the past shows up in the present. We build the capacity to sit with uncomfortable feelings instead of outrunning them.
You start noticing your patterns before they carry you away. The triggers lose some of their grip. The beliefs you've been carrying about yourself start to loosen. You get better at understanding what your nervous system is doing and why, what it learned a long time ago that it's still trying to protect you from. And slowly you stop getting pulled into the same loops. You know what you feel. You make choices that are actually yours.
