Anxiety Therapy for Adults in Scranton/NEPA

Anxiety Therapy for Adults in Pennsylvania

For overthinking, mental exhaustion, and feeling “on” all the time

Anxiety doesn’t always look obvious.

You might be functioning well on the outside—working, managing responsibilities, showing up for others—but internally, your mind rarely slows down.

You may find yourself:

• Replaying conversations long after they’ve happened
• Overanalyzing decisions, even small ones
• Feeling constantly “on edge” or unable to relax
• Struggling to shut your mind off at night
• Second-guessing yourself or worrying about how you come across
• Feeling mentally exhausted, even when you’ve done “nothing.”

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to keep feeling this way.

In therapy, we don’t just try to quiet anxiety—we work to understand what’s driving it and how it shows up in your day-to-day life.

A Different Approach to Anxiety. In our sessions, we won’t just talk about your fears. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we work on "unhooking" from the intrusive thoughts that run your life.

• Cognitive Defusion: Learning to see your thoughts as just words, not absolute truths.
• Mindfulness: Building the capacity to stay present even when things feel overwhelming.
• Values-Based Living: Moving toward what matters to you, even while anxiety is present.

Whether you are dealing with social anxiety, chronic overthinking, or the specific "masking exhaustion" often felt by neurodivergent adults, I provide a safe, affirming space to help you find your footing again.

How therapy can help

Over time, many clients begin to:

• Feel less stuck in cycles of overthinking
• Make decisions with more clarity and less second-guessing
• Experience more mental space and less constant tension
• Feel more grounded and present in their daily life
• Respond to stress without becoming overwhelmed

This isn’t about eliminating anxiety completely—it’s about changing your relationship with it so it no longer runs the show.

My approach

My work is:

• Collaborative and conversational
• Insight-oriented, but practical
• Focused on real-life change, not just discussion

I also work closely with individuals who experience anxiety alongside:

• Depression or burnout
• Identity exploration
• Late-diagnosed or suspected autism

You don’t have to keep managing this on your own

If you’ve been dealing with anxiety for a long time, it can start to feel like this is just how things are.

It doesn’t have to stay that way.
