Therapy for Women Struggling with Anxiety & Overthinking
IN-PERSON AND ONLINE ANXIETY THERAPY FOR WOMEN IN DENVER FOR OVER A DECADE
You’re functioning — but you’re far from fine
You show up. You take care of things. From the outside, you seem put-together. Maybe even “high-functioning.”
But inside, it’s a different story.
Your mind rarely quiets down. You overthink conversations, second-guess decisions and replay the same worries on loop. You feel tense even when nothing’s technically “wrong.” You’re tired of the pressure to hold it all together — and you’re wondering if this is just how life is going to feel.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
At the Women’s Counseling Center of Denver, we help women untangle the roots of their anxiety and build a more grounded, calm and confident experience of themselves. You don’t have to carry this alone anymore.
Does it feel like anxiety has taken over your life?
Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic. Often, it’s a quiet, constant undercurrent that’s weighing you down. You might notice:
Ruminating thoughts that replay conversations or imagine worst-case scenarios
Self-doubt that makes it hard to trust yourself or your decisions
People-pleasing and perfectionism driven by fear of judgment or rejection
Overthinking in relationships, constantly seeking reassurance but still feeling unsure
Difficulty setting boundaries — worried you’ll upset or lose others
Emotional exhaustion from being “on edge” all day and struggling to sleep at night
You might be the one everyone turns to. But inside, you feel like you’re barely holding it together.
Anxiety therapy in Denver that goes beyond coping skills
We’re not here to just give you a list of breathing techniques and send you on your way. Those tools matter — but they’re only part of the picture.
Our approach to anxiety therapy helps you:
Understand the deeper roots of your anxiety (because it’s not “random”)
Identify triggers, thought loops and patterns that keep anxiety in motion
Build emotional regulation and grounding strategies that actually work for you
Explore how early experiences, trauma or relational wounds contribute to anxiety today
Learn how to relate to yourself with more kindness and confidence, not criticism and fear
Anxiety isn’t a personality flaw — it’s a signal that something inside you needs care, not control. Therapy helps you listen to that part of you and respond with curiosity, not shame.
How anxiety shows up in the lives of women we work with
Anxiety doesn’t look the same for everyone. For some women, it’s a quiet hum in the background. For others, it’s all-consuming. Whatever shape it takes, it can leave you feeling overwhelmed, isolated and unsure of what to do next.
Here are some of the most common struggles our clients bring to us:
Generalized Anxiety – a constant, nagging sense of worry that doesn’t go away
Social Anxiety – fear of judgment, overanalyzing social interactions, avoiding connection
Health Anxiety & Obsessive Thinking – feeling stuck in a cycle of what-ifs and worst-case scenarios
Perfectionism & Performance Pressure – feeling like you have to do everything flawlessly to be enough
Panic or Restlessness – your body is on high alert, even when your mind wants calm
High-Functioning Anxiety – keeping it together on the outside while crumbling inside
We also support women whose anxiety is tangled up in:
Major life changes (relationships, motherhood, career)
Unresolved trauma, grief, or betrayal
Relationship patterns like people-pleasing, codependency, or fear of abandonment
Whatever form your anxiety takes, you’re not alone — and it can get better. You deserve support that helps you feel safe, seen and empowered to heal.
Our approach to women’s anxiety therapy in Denver
Our team of women’s therapists brings warmth, expertise, and deep respect to every session. We tailor our approach to your needs, combining insight-based work with practical skills so that you not only understand your anxiety — you begin to shift it.
We choose from several, evidence-based therapies:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
to challenge unhelpful thought patterns
Mindfulness & somatic tools
to reconnect with your body and regulate your nervous system
EMDR
for anxiety tied to trauma or stuck beliefs
Self-compassion & inner critic work
to shift how you relate to yourself
Psychodynamic & relational therapy
to understand the emotional roots of anxiety
This isn’t a quick fix — but it is a path toward long-term relief and reconnection with yourself.
After working with us, many women begin to:
✦ Feel more calm and grounded, even in situations that used to trigger overwhelm
✦ Replace constant overthinking with clarity and confidence
✦ Sleep better and breathe easier, both physically and emotionally
✦ Quiet the inner critic and develop a more compassionate relationship with themselves
✦Let go of perfectionism and embrace “good enough” with less pressure
The goal isn’t to get rid of all anxiety. The goal is to understand it, hold it differently and live with more freedom, trust and clarity.

Anxiety can make even the simplest parts of life feel hard. Therapy isn’t about becoming someone else — it’s about coming home to yourself, and learning how to navigate life with more ease and self-trust. Through our work together, you can begin to:
Feel more calm in your body, instead of constantly bracing for what’s next
Say what you need — and hold boundaries — without guilt or second-guessing
