Anxiety Therapy for Women
a holistic, embodied, and relational approach that works.
You’re ready to feel different
You've done years of this work. You can name your triggers, your patterns, your go-to coping skills — probably better than I could guess them.
But your body still feels tense. Your stomach is uneasy. Your mind doesn’t shut off. Your energy is drained. And you often feel irritable, impatient, or withdrawn in your closest relationships.
You’re not doing anything wrong.
The ‘work’ has simply stalled at the mind, and the rest of you never got included.
I don't focus on coping skills or reframing your thoughts. If you're here, I'm assuming you've outgrown that.
What we do instead is go underneath the anxiety — into your nervous system, your history, and the self-protection patterns your body developed a long time ago.
Your symptoms of anxiety are just that, symptoms. And instead of offering you quick tips and advice for those symptoms.. we’re going to address their root causes at the body-level so that the way you feel in your daily life fundamentally changes.
More joyous, present & alive.
A modern & holistic approach
Hi, I’m Alissa—Licensed Therapist & Owner of Root Wellness, LLC
I’ve built my practice on the belief that when we consistently repress our emotions, stressors, and challenging experiences instead of releasing them— we wind up developing mental (and often physical) health symptoms.
And yet, many of us were never taught how to move toward what is hard/uncomfortable/dysregulating so that we can healthily let it go. Instead, we were shown how to run away from it, repress it, power through it, and/or ignore it.
My style is to dig down to the roots of your stress & anxiety and to meet you there as a compassionate and deeply attuned presence. To help you recognize what you’ve been holding onto so that we can work together to release it.
I believe it is only when you uncover and tend to those roots that you can become the healthiest, most grounded version of yourself.
