Therapy for fear & stress

When everything feels like too much

Move out of survival mode and into something steadier

Stress has a way of piling up quietly until it feels like you can’t catch your breath. Whether it’s rooted in daily responsibilities, big life transitions, or deeper patterns of fear and pressure, it takes a toll. At CMC Therapy, we help you untangle what’s going on beneath the overwhelm so you can find more space, more clarity, and more calm. This isn’t about pushing through—it’s about creating a new way of moving through the world.

What we offer

We tailor care to your lived experience—whether you're feeling on edge all the time or just tired of holding it all together. Our therapists support clients in navigating all kinds of fear- and stress-related experiences, including:

  • Chronic overwhelm or burnout

  • Panic attacks or persistent worry

  • People-pleasing and perfectionism

  • Fear of failure or not being “enough”

  • Work, school, or caregiving stress

  • Difficulty setting boundaries or saying no

Our approach

We focus on slowing down, building emotional awareness, and developing tools that work in your real life. Using evidence-based methods like CBT, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and relational therapy, we help you understand what’s fueling the stress and how to move through it without abandoning yourself. This is not about managing your life better—it’s about changing your relationship to it.

Frequently asked questions about fear & stress therapy

  • If stress or fear is quietly draining your energy, making you feel disconnected, or keeping you up at night, therapy can help—even if things still “look fine” from the outside.

  • Stress is usually a response to external pressures; anxiety is often more internal and persistent. That said, they often overlap—and both are valid reasons to seek support.

  • Absolutely. Therapy can help you respond differently to those stressors, shift thought patterns, and reconnect with a sense of steadiness—even when life is still full.

  • That’s often a sign that therapy could help the most. We offer online sessions and flexible scheduling to make support easier to access.
