SANDRA PAOLINI, LMFT

I specialize in panic disorder, agoraphobia, and anxiety using a body-based, nervous system-focused approach. Drawing from two decades of my own experience with panic, I combine somatic practices, ACT, and trauma-informed work to help you transform your relationship with fear, not just manage symptoms. I also offer small therapeutic groups.

You've been living with panic attacks, anxiety, or agoraphobia for longer than you care to admit. You've tried managing it, controlling it, outsmarting it—and you've probably discovered that approach doesn't work for very long. Your world may have gotten smaller. You avoid certain situations, routes, or experiences because the fear of panic is always lurking. You're exhausted from the constant vigilance and tired of your life being shaped by what you're afraid might happen. You want real freedom, not just symptom management. You're ready to stop fighting panic and start changing your relationship with it entirely.

I know what it's like to have panic run your life. I spent years trapped by it before I found a way through. That journey taught me that change happens when we stop trying to eliminate fear and start working with the body's actual wiring. If you're exhausted from fighting and ready for a different approach, I'd be glad to talk. You don't have to do it alone.
