What is Anxiety Therapy?

anxiety-therapy-denver

Anxiety therapy is a type of counseling that helps people manage their anxiety symptoms. It’s a safe and effective way to learn coping skills and strategies to deal with anxiety. At Connected Brain Counseling, we offer a variety of anxiety therapy services to help you overcome your anxiety.

According to Psychology Today, anxiety therapy targets the three major components of anxiety (worry, physical arousal or nervousness, and avoidance) by teaching one or more well-researched programs of skills that fit patients’ worst thoughts.

Patients learn what kinds of thoughts and behaviors trigger their anxiety, how their own beliefs and statements about themselves contribute to their disorder, and how their own imagination magnifies the dangers they perceive. They also learn how to reduce the physical discomfort of anxiety and how to address the situations that trigger their symptoms or general discomfort. Therapy is usually carried out in a series of 12 or more sessions that typically last about an hour. Patients are often assigned exercises to do at home and skills to practice between sessions.

Another source that may be useful is the American Psychological Association, which mentions that several studies have shown that both behavior therapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be very effective in treating anxiety disorders. Psychologists use CBT to help patients identify and learn to control the factors that contribute to their anxiety.

Sydney Focht, MA, LPC

Clinical Director & Counselor

I specialize in working with women in their 20s to 50s who struggle with self-worth, self-esteem, and the guilt that often comes with prioritizing themselves. Finding self-trust and the ability to feel worthy of happiness are common topics in my work. My clients tend to put off therapy because they downplay their struggles, describing their pain as ‘not that big of a deal.’ Many of them grew up in households where expressing emotions wasn’t encouraged and they are still looking for security now. My goal is to create a space where you feel completely free to be yourself—no pressure, no expectations. Therapy with me isn’t about either of us being ‘perfect’—it’s more about you feeling safe, seen, and supported as you figure things out in a way that works for you. I prioritize meaningful conversations that get to the heart of the issue, getting to the root and out of surface level conversation quickly. Going through my own therapy has given me a deeper understanding of what it’s like to be in the client’s seat, and it’s made me even more passionate about helping others find the support that truly works for them. My clients describe me as focused, compassionate, nonjudgmental, and down-to-earth. I truly love what I do and that comes through in my work! I’m a person-centered therapist, but I often integrate elements of Motivational Interviewing, CBT, and IFS.

Cassandra Keller, MA, LPCC

Neurofeedback Clinician & Counselor (EMDR-Trained)

I support adults and teens (15+) who are ready to find relief from trauma, anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck in life, career, or identity transitions. Using a compassionate, trauma-informed, and integrative approach, I help clients reconnect with themselves and move toward balance and resilience. I’m EMDR-trained and draw from person-centered, gestalt, DBT, and somatic practices. Whether we’re working with the nervous system, processing painful memories, or exploring patterns with curiosity, my goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you feel supported, present, and empowered to grow. I especially enjoy working with athletes, creative people, students, and outdoor adventurers who value resilience, beauty, and balance. Alongside therapy and grounding practices, I also offer neurofeedback as another powerful pathway for nervous system regulation and healing. Outside the office, you’ll often find me climbing, fly fishing, running trails, foraging, or relaxing in the grass under the aspens. My love for movement, play, and nature continually inspires how I show up with clients.
