Wouldn’t it be nice if the mind had an off switch?

Imagine settling in for the night, taking your brain off like a helmet, and placing it gently on the nightstand. Sounds pretty nice, right? Unfortunately, that’s not how the human brain works (rude) - so we’re left with the complicated task of learning to coexist with it.

At MWC, we offer online anxiety therapy in Maryland and Pennsylvania to help you do just that: help your brain work for YOU with clinical tools, whole-body insight, and real-world strategies to help you find calm, clarity, and control.

Here’s the thing: your brain isn’t that concerned with your happiness.

So, what does this mean? What this means is that if you are on the receiving end of…

• racing thoughts

• constant worry, “what if’s”, or thoughts about the past

• feelings of dread or doom that you can’t shake

• restlessness or difficulty relaxing

• panic, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath

…the good news is that you are not broken. Along with the other estimated 284 million people in the world who face anxiety, your brain is doing what it’s designed to do: keep you alive. The bad news? Our brains haven’t caught up to deal with the types of stressors we face today, which differ than those of our ancestors. So, we are left with our brain’s funky way of dealing with stress that…doesn’t really help us. In fact, it can be completely debilitating. That’s probably how you found yourself here.

At MWC, we specialize in anxiety therapy for women and individuals in Maryland. Our approach is compassionate, research-based, and integrative. You don’t need to force your anxiety away—you’ll learn to understand it, manage it, and move forward anyway.

The MWC Approach

We see anxiety for what it is: an adaptive system that was never designed to make us happy, just safe. That’s why breathing techniques alone aren’t enough. In therapy, we take a two-pronged approach:
