Anxiety can show up as racing thoughts, a tight chest, panic, constant worry, or just a feeling that something's off and you can't name why. Whatever shape it takes for you, you're not alone — and there are real ways through it.

What anxiety feels like

  • Anxiety can leave you feeling powerless and uncertain, affecting both your emotions and your physical well-being.
  • When it sticks around, it can lead to depression and persistent negative thoughts that wear down your quality of life.
  • It can cause daily distress, interfering with your relationships, your decisions, and the things you used to enjoy.

Symptoms to watch for

  • Avoiding social situations out of fear of judgment or embarrassment.
  • Sudden panic attacks, and the ongoing fear of when the next one might come.
  • Irrational fears, or avoidance of certain places, objects, or situations.
  • Recurring nightmares, flashbacks, or emotional numbness tied to past trauma.
  • Physical symptoms — chest tightness, stomach upset, headaches, trouble sleeping.

She opened my eyes, gave me a different point of view, pulled me out of some dark places and gave me tools to manage my stress, anxiety and toxic people. All at a price I could actually afford. I am in a much better place because of her.

I had the privilege of working with Jo for several years, both individually and in couples counseling, during one of the most challenging times in my life, and I am incredibly grateful for her support. Jo is warm, authentic, relational, and genuinely down-to-earth, which immediately put me at ease and made it easy to open up. She created a therapeutic environment rooted in compassion, acceptance, and humanity, setting a standard for the kind of warmth I believe every therapist should strive for. I always felt heard, understood, and respected, and her guidance had a lasting impact on my life. If you're looking for a therapist who feels like a real person—not someone distant, cold, or clinical—I wholeheartedly recommend Jo and this practice. The care I received made a meaningful difference, and I can't recommend them highly enough.

I had a great experience at the William A. Presti center. My therapist helped me get thru a tough patch in my life. She was very caring, kind, knowledgeable and helpful. I would definitely recommend this center.

We found the center using Google and they recommend Marcie Reznik to us. She was the first experience my partner and I ever had with a life coach. I am not sure what we were expecting but as we both felt like we had an issue we were not able to push through alone we went. We did a total of 6 sessions and LOVEd it! Each time we learned more about the process and each other. Marcie was patient and helped us see what was necessary to move forward. It has been 2 months since our last appointment and it has been great using the tools she thought us. I think our relationship is stronger and our ability to think things out and communicate is so much better. I have a new understanding on Life Coaching and 100% recommend Marcie!!
