Anxiety Therapy in Fairfax, VA

For worry, overthinking and stress that have started to run your days.

When Worry Takes Over

Anxiety can look like constant worry, overthinking, feeling on edge, panic, or stress that affects sleep and work. Melissa Addessi lists social anxiety among her areas, and Alessia McIntosh works with performance anxiety.

You do not need to know which approach you want. The intake team listens to what is happening and matches you with a therapist who works with anxiety.
