Online Anxiety Therapy for Women in Chicago & Illinois
Culturally Affirming, Evidence-Based Support for Anxiety Relief
You Deserve Peace—Not Just to “Push Through”
Anxiety can feel like an invisible weight—tight in your chest, loud in your mind, and constant in your body. Even on “good days,” you might be overthinking everything, snapping at people you love, or lying awake at night with a racing mind.
As women, we carry so much. We’re expected to stay calm, handle it all, and smile through the stress. But that pressure builds—and it often turns into anxiety.
Maybe you’ve asked yourself:
"Why can’t I just relax?"
"Why am I always on edge?"
"Is it just me?"
You’re not broken. You’re overwhelmed. And you’re not alone.
Let’s help you breathe again.

What Anxiety Can Look Like
Anxiety isn’t always obvious. It doesn’t always show up as panic attacks. Sometimes, it’s just… too much.
You might notice:
Physical signs: Headaches, chest tightness, fatigue, nausea, restlessness
Emotional signs: Irritability, dread, feeling numb or overwhelmed
Mental signs: Constant worry, racing thoughts, perfectionism, overanalyzing
Behavioral signs: Avoiding people, overworking, sleep problems, zoning out
If any of this feels familiar, your nervous system is waving a red flag.
Therapy can help you feel safe in your body and steady in your mind again.
