Evanston Therapists specializing in Anxiety

Most of the clients I have worked with have anxiety related to making life choices and their identity. I help clients get rooted in who they are so that when life is unstable they are grounded in the foundation of themselves.

I sit with my clients to address a wide variety of mental health and wellness challenges such as depression and anxiety, grief, perinatal and postpartum care, ADD/ADHD, parenting, self-image/self-esteem, and adjustments to big life changes. I also provide clinical supervision and consultation on practice development to fellow psychotherapists.

Happy Camper Counseling; Joanne Lagattolla

My clients are seeking an intentionally inclusive and welcoming space to experience impactful therapy. They often struggle with that was then, this is now. Current feelings, thoughts and behaviors reflective of past adverse experiences. Unhelpful patterns are often repeating, resulting in the felt experience of chaos and confusion.

Sergio Hernández

Anxiety, like other psychological maladies, arises when people stop looking at themselves honestly and acceptingly. I strive to create honest acceptance.

Catherine Boyce

The worries and the fears keep you from making decisions or changes in your life. You don't want to be burdened all the time, but you can't stop trying to always do the right the thing or to make the perfect decision. I help women with anxiety learn techniques to use every day so they can feel clear and confident about asking for what they want, without the perfectionism and fear. My clients find a place of peace and ease as the anxiety diminishes.

Daniel Healy

Continuing Education and regular review of the current literature on the subject of anxiety.

Cheryl Weiss

Are you aware of the intention about not doing the work or correcting the behavior or feeling unmotivated? Are you afraid of your feelings exploding when there are unpleasant events happening in your life? I can perhaps break that down for you to help with unpacking the things that you have been putting on hold because of shame & pain you dealt with. These feelings & thoughts are totally valid & I hope to help you engage in the process of stepping outside of your comfort zone to heal & grow.

M. Cecilia Bocanegra

All of my clients deal with anxiety. Anxiety is a common bellwether emotion of some underlying things and issues going on with us so bring it on and let's learn from it!

I pride myself in creating a safe and playful holding space for clients to feel ready to explore experiences and feelings at their own pace. My specialties include child development, parent-child relationships, anxiety and depression, emerging adulthood, psychoeducation, play therapy, trauma and PTSD, and Autism and developmental delays. No matter what you’re struggling with, there’s relief through positive relationships with someone who really understands.

Jessica McMorran

You’ve been feeling overwhelmed and wish you had a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore various parts of your life. Maybe you are sick of people-pleasing or not having good self-esteem. Maybe you struggle with making and upholding boundaries. Maybe anxiety or past traumas are taking up a majority of your day and you’re not sure where to even start. I am a believer in the healing power of therapy. I work with people of all ages who are struggling with various parts of their lives.

Jennifer Drake

I work with children, teens, and adults who have anxiety. My focus is to empower you, the client, with tools that will begin to alleviate your anxiety symptoms and then to focus on the root cause. I focus heavily on the latest neuroscience research and discuss the role of neuroplasticity that can help foster peace and calm within our minds and lives.

Anna Grinshpun

John Hughes

My clients tend to be individuals and couples between 20 and 50 who have noticed an acute or recurrent struggle with effectively managing self and relationships. Some client's concerns are isolated to a specific or current relationships and others have a more systemic struggle that has historically complicated all relationships. My clients have told me they appreciate my compassionate yet direct approach that balances science with emotions and skills with acceptance.

Raquel Galan

Are you successful but not "truly" happy? Do you feel there is more to life than what you are currently experiencing? Moving abroad, processing trauma, having a baby, changing careers, navigating relationship challenges are life's roller coasters. I specialize in working with women who straddle multiple roles. I offer a warm and collaborative atmosphere to help you explore options, reconnect with your inner compass, and work toward your goals. Are you ready to make yourself a priority?

Arielle Drescher

Are you feeling overwhelming pressures from work or school and feel like you're continually falling short? Does saying “Yes” to everything have you in a cycle of unhealthy habits and unsatisfying experiences? Are you drowning your worries and fears by binge watching Netflix series or endlessly scrolling on Instagram? I offer a unique style of therapy that works alongside you to navigate unproductive thoughts, and explore tools to gain self-acceptance and develop productive narratives.
