Anxiety relief is possible, even if nothing has worked before
Many of our clients come to us after trying other treatments that didn’t stick. Maybe you were prescribed fast-acting medications. Maybe you were told to avoid your triggers or distract yourself from anxious thoughts. While those strategies might offer short-term relief, they often keep the anxiety loop alive.
At Vivid Psychology Group, we focus on long-term change. Our treatment helps you understand your unique anxiety cycle and gently disrupt it using proven tools.
Evidence-based, customized care
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment. Your sessions will be guided by a mix of:
Every session is focused, active, and tailored to your goals. You won’t just talk about anxiety. You’ll build real skills to reduce its power over your life.
Why avoiding anxiety makes it worse
Avoiding anxiety is a natural instinct. But it’s also the fuel that keeps the fire burning. Each time you dodge a stressful situation or rush to soothe anxious thoughts, your brain learns that anxiety is dangerous.
Over time, this creates a loop that feels harder and harder
to break.
The good news? That cycle is not permanent. You can learn to face anxiety in ways that deflate it instead of feed it.
What treatment looks like
We start by helping you become an expert in your own anxiety. You’ll uncover what triggers your distress, how avoidance keeps it going, and what tools can interrupt that pattern. Then we build step-by-step exposures and coping strategies to help you take your life back.
Our treatment is:
- Structured but flexible
- Empathic and collaborative
- Focused on building confidence, not just reducing symptoms

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of anxiety do you treat?
We work with clients experiencing generalized anxiety, panic disorder, social anxiety, health anxiety, OCD, phobias, and body-focused behaviors like skin picking and hair pulling. If you’re unsure whether we can support your specific concern, please reach out for a consultation.
How long does treatment usually take?
While timelines vary, many clients begin seeing improvements within 8 to 12 sessions. Our approach focuses on building long-term tools and not just symptom relief, so we’ll tailor the pace to your progress and goals.
Do I need a diagnosis to start treatment?
No. You don’t need a formal diagnosis to begin treatment. If anxiety is interfering with your life, that’s reason enough to seek support. We’ll help clarify what’s going on and recommend the best path forward.
Do you prescribe medication?
Our team focuses on treatment, not medication management. However, if we believe you could benefit from medication alongside treatment, we can refer you to a trusted psychiatric provider.
Is this program covered by insurance?
Yes. We currently accept Colorado Access Medicaid for eligible clients. If you’re unsure about your coverage, we’re happy to confirm your eligibility before getting started.
What age groups do you serve?
We support adults and adolescents through individual therapy, and offer treatment for children aged 5 and up. For younger children, we offer SPACE treatment, a parent-based model proven effective for childhood anxiety.
What’s the difference between your approach and traditional talk therapy?
Unlike passive talk therapy, our sessions are active, structured, and focused on building skills. We use proven methods like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you break the anxiety cycle, not just vent about it.
What if I’ve tried therapy before and it didn’t help?
That’s more common than you’d think. Many of our clients have been through other forms of therapy before finding success here. Our approach is targeted, collaborative, and backed by clinical research, especially for anxiety-related conditions.
