Embody Presence & Peace:
Therapy That Actually Works by Treating the Root Cause of Your Anxiety
Holistic Therapy for Treating Anxiety & Chronic Stress
From the outside, masking chronic stress and performing to please have made you highly effective. Inside you can feel yourself on the brink of implosion. If you are insightful and emotionally aware but still finding yourself unable to relax, our counselors here at Heart Space Counseling Center won't teach you to function better. You're obviously already great at that! Instead, we help you "slow down to speed up" so you can finally feel free, recharged, rested, and at peace.
Counseling that Actually Works for Overextended, High-Functioning Perfectionists & Professionals
Slow Down to Speed Up: Release and Recharge to Maximize Productivity, Presence, and Peace
So many of our clients begin therapy after years of dedicated time and effort building the dream life, climbing the ladder at work, striving in earnest to provide for loving families. At Heart Space, we understand what it’s like to look functional on the outside - holding it all together with a big smile and a little irritation - all while silently spiraling on the inside. Our therapists offer evidence-based, trauma-informed somatic treatments to help you physically feel more grounded while rewiring your nervous system. Break free from anxiety’s grip and build immediate, but long-term emotional resilience.
Coping skills, self-care, and anxiety medication are undoubtedly useful, but deep and lasting anxiety healing involves so much more than meds and good behavior. We help you slow down, unhook from survival mode, and feel truly safe inside yourself by treating anxiety at its root through approaches that work with the mind, heart, and body together.
Anxiety can shape your entire world quietly, persistently, and painfully. Our counselors help people struggling with:
Racing thoughts, sleepless nights, & looping worries
The mental spiral after a normal conversation
The tight chest, pit in your stomach, and clench in your jaw
Situational, chronic, or trauma-related triggers
Difficulty concentrating, forgetfulness, & decision paralysis
Physical tension, restlessness, muscle pain, and digestive issues
Over-apologizing, over-preparing, and people pleasing
Constant second guessing or fear of disappointing others
Trouble relaxing when nothing is wrong
Understanding Anxiety
What is anxiety? What causes it?
Anxiety is more than just worry. It's a full body experience that at times occurs in reaction to stressful situations and at other times seems to come out of nowhere. Often it starts in childhood in emotionally or physically unsafe environments where unpredictability, chaos, conditional love, or neglect taught your nervous system to be on high alert. Over time, this anxiety becomes a way of life. Your brain prioritizes survival over presence. Your body gets stuck in fight-or-flight. Even in safe moments, it feels like something might collapse.
Therapy helps bring all of that out of autopilot. It’s not only a place to learn how to cope, but also to understand the deeper why and support safe nervous system regulation.
Our approach to working with anxiety isn't one-size-fits-all. Your nervous system, your story, and your goals deserve more. That's why we tailor therapy to you - whether that means digging into childhood patterns, navigating a life transition, recovering from toxic relational dynamics, or simply learning how to feel at home inside your own skin.
