Therapy for Anxiety | Lutry, Switzerland
Connect to peace, clarity, and yourself
Anxiety can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to control your life.
Your mind won’t stop racing at night, replaying worries like a relentless reel. You feel stuck in “what if” loops, overanalyzing every decision or fearing the worst. Sometimes, your body feels the brunt of it—a pounding heart, tightness in your chest, or a sense of restlessness you can’t shake.
Anxiety can show up in so many ways, but at its core, it’s often a signal that something deeper needs attention. It’s a natural response to life’s uncertainties and challenges—a reminder of the freedom and responsibility you hold in shaping your path. Therapy for anxiety gives you a safe place to explore just that.
If you’re here, you’ve already taken a brave step toward doing something about it. That’s no small thing—and it’s worth honoring.
What Does Anxiety Feel Like?
Anxiety can feel like a constant, unwelcome companion. It might show up as:
Persistent worry that’s hard to control or let go of.
Physical tension like headaches, stomach aches, or tightness in your body.
Overthinking every choice, replaying conversations, or fearing mistakes.
Avoidance of certain people, places, or situations that trigger your stress.
A sense of being trapped by fear, even when you can’t name exactly what’s causing it.
You’re not alone in feeling this way. Anxiety is one of the most common reasons people seek therapy. It impacts every part of life, from relationships to work to your sense of self.
What Does Anxiety Look Like in High-Functioning Women?
Section Styles bg-right
For women who appear to “have it all together,” anxiety can hide in plain sight. It might look like:
Overachievement
Pushing yourself to excel at everything, leaving no room for rest.
Perfectionism
A fear of failure driving you to impossible standards.
Hyper-responsibility
Taking on more than your fair share, feeling like you can’t say no.
Emotional Exhaustion
Keeping up appearances while feeling drained inside.
Overplanning
Struggling to make decisions because of a need to control every outcome.
People-Pleasing
Sacrificing your needs to avoid conflict or make others happy.
These patterns might seem to help you keep up with life’s demands, but they mask deeper fears or conflicts and can be harmful to your health. In therapy, I’ll help you heal and build a more sustainable way of life.
How Therapy for
Anxiety Can Help
Understand your anxiety
What triggers it? How does it show up in your thoughts, body, and behaviors? When you can name it, you can start to work with it.

manage stress
Together, we’ll explore practical strategies to help you feel more in control and at ease.
Address the deeper questions
We’ll dig into the questions that come up for you surrounding your purpose, meaning, happiness, and what you want in life.
Reconnect with yourself
Anxiety shows up when you feel disconnected from who you are or what you care about. Therapy helps you find your way back to living a life that feels meaningful.
Anxiety often grows in the gaps between where you are and where you want to be. We’ll work to understand those gaps and how to bridge them in a way that aligns with your values.
Anxiety and the Bigger Picture

It’s more than feeling stressed or worried. Anxiety often arises when we face life’s big uncertainties, the weight of our responsibilities, or the limits of what we can control. It can bring up deeper questions like:
Am I living a life that aligns with my values?
How do I live authentically when life feels so uncertain?
Am I safe in this world?
What is my purpose?
What does it mean to live a meaningful life when fear feels so big?
These questions can feel heavy, but they’re also deeply human. Therapy isn’t just about managing symptoms (though that’s a part of it). It’s about exploring what anxiety might be trying to tell you and finding a way forward that feels authentic and grounded.
