Anxiety & Depression

At Alchemy Collective, we provide comprehensive treatment for anxiety that goes beyond symptom management to address the underlying patterns and root causes of anxiety experiences. Our approach integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques with somatic practices to help you develop a new relationship with anxiety and create lasting relief and resilience.

Anxiety can manifest in many forms, including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, and health anxiety. While these presentations differ, they share common features of excessive worry, physical tension, nervous system dysregulation, and avoidance behaviors that limit life engagement. Anxiety often has complex origins, including biological predispositions, learning experiences, trauma, current life stressors, and nervous system patterns.

Our treatment approach begins with helping you understand your unique anxiety patterns and developing practical skills for symptom relief. We then work deeper to address underlying contributors, which may include processing traumatic experiences, examining core beliefs, healing attachment wounds, or resolving conflicts between different aspects of self. Throughout this process, we emphasize somatic awareness and nervous system regulation as essential components of lasting change.

We utilize a range of therapeutic modalities tailored to your specific needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic approaches, mindfulness practices, parts work, EMDR, and exposure therapy when appropriate. These approaches help you develop new cognitive patterns, regulate your nervous system, process underlying emotional material, and gradually expand your capacity to engage with previously anxiety-provoking situations.

Many clients experience significant relief from anxiety symptoms while also developing a fundamentally different relationship with anxiety itself—seeing it as information rather than a threat, having greater internal resources for regulation, and finding increased freedom to pursue meaningful life directions even when anxiety arises.
