About Erika Garibay Malanowski, LCSW

Hi! I’m Erika, and I specialize in anxiety therapy. Anxiety isn’t just in your mind; it’s in your body, too. That racing heart, the tightness in your chest, the restless nights—they’re all connected. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by constant worry, fear, or physical discomfort, I am here to help.

My approach goes beyond talk therapy. I’ll teach you how to change the way your brain and body respond to anxiety using structured, evidence-based therapy. My goal isn’t to keep you in therapy forever—I want to equip you with skills so you can move forward feeling confident and empowered.

Together, we’ll help you:

  • See your thoughts with clarity instead of from a place of worry.
  • Understand your body’s signals so they no longer feel scary.
  • Face fears with confidence rather than avoidance.
  • Change how you respond to triggers.
  • Build lasting skills to navigate stress.
  • Move past anxiety and toward a life that aligns with your values.

You can break the cycle of anxiety. Let’s do this together!
