Does your mind ever actually turn off?
Anxiety Therapy for Women
Virtual therapy for millennial women in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida
You get it all done. You show up for work, your people, and everyone who needs something from you. But on the inside, your mind won't slow down. You replay conversations, plan for every worst case, and lie awake going over tomorrow's list.
At CBG Counseling, we offer virtual anxiety therapy for women who are tired of just pushing through.
What Anxiety Can Look Like
Anxiety isn't always panic attacks. A lot of the time, it looks like:
- Overthinking a text or a decision for hours
- Always expecting something to go wrong
- Saying yes when you really want to say no
- A tight chest, clenched jaw, or knots in your stomach
- Feeling guilty or lazy when you try to rest
And from the outside? Most people would say you're doing great.
Why So Many Millennial Women Live With Anxiety
We were told we could do it all, and then we were handed all of it. Careers, relationships, money, maybe kids, maybe aging parents, and a phone that never stops buzzing. Many of us also grew up as the responsible one, keeping the peace and putting ourselves last.
So we got really good at coping. Staying busy feels safer than slowing down, because when things get quiet, the worry gets loud. Quick fixes like a bath or a deep breath help for a minute, but they don't get to the root. Therapy does.
What Anxiety Therapy at CBG Counseling Looks Like
We're millennial women too. We know the pressure and the mental load because we live it. Here, you'll get a real person who understands, not a script.
A space just for you.
Your sessions are private, one-on-one, and judgment free. We use a trauma-informed approach, so we go at your pace and you decide what you share.
Getting to the root.
We look at where your anxiety started and what keeps it going, like family patterns or old beliefs such as "I have to be perfect."
Tools you'll actually use.
CBT to catch anxious thoughts, narrative therapy to rewrite the story you tell about yourself, solution-focused therapy to build on what's already working, and simple ways to calm your body when anxiety hits. We also have two EMDR therapists to support you if traditional therapy hasn't felt like it's getting you somewhere.
Small steps between sessions.
No homework overload. Just small, realistic goals for your everyday life. The real hard work happens outside of our sessions, so we make sure to give you tools you can put into action.
Sessions that fit your life.
All sessions are virtual through our virtual platform and last about 50 minutes. Join from your couch, your parked car, or any private spot.
Is past trauma part of it?
If your anxiety is tied to past trauma, EMDR therapy may also help. Learn more on our EMDR therapy page.
While we are mostly an out-of-network practice, we also take a limited number of insurance plans. If you choose to use your out-of-network benefits, we can provide you with a superbill so you can ask your insurance about getting some of your cost back. We also partner with a company called Thrizer to make this a little easier for you. You can check your benefits using the calculator below. Learn more on our FAQ page.

You Don't Have to Live on High Alert
Feeling calmer is possible. Not perfect, not worry free, just more like yourself again. Reaching out is often the hardest part, and you don't need to have it all figured out first.
