Anxiety

Help with anxiety offered online or in-person at our NYC location in Midtown West/Times Square.

Anxiety is on the rise—more people than ever, across all ages, are feeling uncertain, unstable, and overwhelmed. The pressure to perform, to meet expectations, to always be in control can leave you feeling exhausted, insecure, and disconnected from yourself. When anxiety takes over, it can make even the smallest decisions feel impossible and leave you doubting your ability to handle life’s challenges.

You don’t have to go through this alone. We offer a space where you can step out of the cycle of overthinking, self-doubt, and fear. In a supportive and trusting environment, you’ll have the chance to explore your anxiety, build confidence, and develop new ways of moving through life’s pressures.

Together, we work on:

  • Facing fear of failure and making mistakes

  • Navigating change and the unknown

  • Asking for what you need without guilt

  • Letting go of perfectionism and self-judgment

  • Making choices even when things are uncertain

  • Managing the pressure to meet expectations

  • Stepping outside your comfort zone

  • Coping with anxiety or panic that seems to come out of nowhere

Anxiety doesn’t have to control your life. With support, you can move through it, regain confidence, and feel more grounded in your life.

We offer both in-person (in Midtown West/Times Square) and virtual therapy for anyone who lives or works in New York State.

"I started seeing Ann at a time when anxiety and depression were taking over my life. Ann has helped me grow in ways I never imagined. She's caring, kind, smart, and will challenge you, gently and with care, but challenge you nonetheless. If you want to be coddled and stay as you are Ann is probably not for you. The transition to virtual therapy via Zoom was seamless and has been even more impactful. I highly recommend Ann."

A long, straight road surrounded by trees with "Time for Change" painted in large, white letters across the asphalt under a partly cloudy sky evokes a journey as transformative as therapy. It's as if this serene path holds the promise of renewal far from NYC's bustling streets.

Anxiety Q&A

What are the benefits of choosing therapy for anxiety?

Though friends, family, and other members of your community may provide invaluable support, it can often be difficult to become emotionally vulnerable and honest about your fears with them. Therapy not only gives you the chance to discuss how anxiety is affecting you on a day-to-day basis, it also offers a non-judgmental, new perspective that can help you locate the source of your worry.

You’ll be invited to open up and cover such topics as your history, experience with therapeutic treatments, and your daily expriences with anxiety. As Ann will get to know you better, together you will begin to explore new ways of addressing what may be distorted thinking and unhelpful responses to your life challenges.

The truth is that all of us experience some degree of anxiety—and that is not a bad thing! The function of anxiety is to keep us alert and protect us from threats. Excessive anxiety, however, can be highly disruptive and difficult to overcome. At Grow Connect Create, we have helped countless clients benefit from therapy and, when needed, medication management, leading them to a life that feels more joyful. It’s possible to center yourself and become more powerful in your life, regardless of how long your anxiety has been in the driver’s seat.
