Austin Anxiety Therapist
Warm, evidence-based anxiety counseling in Austin — for chronic worry, panic, perfectionism, and the high-functioning anxiety that no one else notices.
Anxiety doesn't always look like anxiety. Sometimes it's the constant mental replay, the tight chest before meetings, the 3 a.m. wake-ups, the perfectionism that keeps you moving but never lets you rest.
At Haven & Harbor, anxiety therapy is grounded in what actually works — CBT, MBCT, IFS, and EMDR when the anxiety is trauma-rooted — and paced so your nervous system can settle rather than white-knuckle through it.
What we treat
- • Generalized anxiety and chronic worry
- • Panic attacks and health anxiety
- • Social anxiety and performance anxiety
- • Perfectionism and high-functioning anxiety

FAQ
Common questions
What kind of anxiety do you work with?
Chronic worry, panic attacks, health anxiety, social anxiety, perfectionism, and high-functioning anxiety — the kind that nobody else sees because you're still getting everything done.
What therapies do you use for anxiety?
A mix of CBT, MBCT, IFS, and EMDR when the anxiety is trauma-rooted. The blend depends on your nervous system and what's actually driving the worry.
How long does anxiety therapy take?
Many clients feel meaningful shifts in 8–12 sessions. Complex or trauma-linked anxiety usually takes longer, and we go at your pace.
Do you take insurance?
Yes — in-network through Headway with Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Oscar, Oxford, and Anthem. Self-pay is $130–$225, and superbills are available for out-of-network reimbursement.
In-person or telehealth?
Both. In-person sessions at our Northwest Austin office (3301 Northland Dr, Ste 218, 78731) and secure telehealth anywhere in Texas.
