Anxiety Relief for Young Adults and College Students

You’ve thought about the same problem 127 times. You made pro/con lists. You asked all your friends what to do but still can’t make a decision. Saturday night was supposed to be fun but ended in you acting out the loudly crying emoji.

This is what we therapists call: anxiety.

You may be aware that some level of anxiety in life is unavoidable. If stress, overthinking, decision making, your future (not to mention the apocalypse we are living in), are worries that are spinning out of control, I’m so glad you found me. 

I’m Jody Dianna, and I specialize in helping young adults, college students, and their parents through one of the most impactful stages in life. I help young adults, like you, become the independent version of yourself you are striving for. And if you’re a parent that is unsure of what to do while your loved one struggles, we can sort that out together.

Get Good With Stress

While anxiety therapy is my primary focus, I also help with stress management, panic attacks, navigating emerging neurodivergence, and parent support. I use evidence based techniques that are rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but go beyond that with an interpersonal style that includes finding solutions, building strengths, and Brainspotting. I’ll be your cheerleader with a primary goal of you leaving every one of our sessions feeling composed, stronger, and ready to manage your life.

Although based in Murfreesboro, TN, my clients have represented several Tennessee colleges including: Belmont University, UT Knoxville, Vanderbilt University, Lincoln Memorial University, and MTSU (of course). My secure online therapy across the state saves you time and gets you the life you want.

You can stop crashing out and start crushing it. Contact me today.

If your parents have said to you

“I want to help but I don’t know what else to do”

YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

Do these sound familiar?

Perfectionism

You like that you have high expectations of yourself. But life is getting more complicated and trying to be 100% right about every decision you make can feel crushing..

Stress

You have always wanted more for yourself. Comparison used to drive you but now it feeds your fears. You believe in your goals but the pressure is becoming too much.

Imposter Syndrome

Sure, you have done a lot of work to get where you are. But all the proof in the world doesn’t sink in as evidence that you are good enough and your success is real.

Failure

Trying to do it all is starting to do you in. Holding it all together is exhausting. Giving up is your worst fear but burnout seems to be around the corner.

People Pleasing

You don’t want anyone to be upset with you. The thought of someone being disappointed in your choices or actions is unbearable.

Overwhelm

The state of world is hard for you to ignore. After adding that t your daily tasks, you feel over-taxed and under-resourced. It is easy to slip into hopelessness.
