Virtual anxiety therapy serving Memphis
Virtual anxiety therapy for adults in Memphis.
Hicks Consulting provides virtual therapy to eligible Tennessee clients, including adults in Memphis who are dealing with persistent worry, overwhelm, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional tension, or the pressure to keep functioning while feeling anxious inside.
Anxiety does not always look like panic. It can look like replaying conversations, preparing for every possible problem, staying constantly busy, struggling to rest, or feeling as though one mistake will undo everything.
How anxiety may show up
High functioning does not mean you feel calm.
These patterns are educational examples, not a diagnosis. A qualified professional should assess your individual situation.
Over-responsibility
Feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, outcomes, comfort, or approval.
Difficulty resting
Feeling guilty, restless, or unsafe when there is nothing urgent to solve.
Perfectionism
Using achievement or control to reduce fear, even when the standard is exhausting.
Body tension and fatigue
Carrying stress physically, feeling depleted, or having trouble settling after the day ends.
Avoidance and indecision
Delaying conversations or choices because the possible outcomes feel overwhelming.
What therapy can offer
A place to understand the pattern instead of only managing the next crisis.
Therapy may help you slow down enough to notice how anxiety is operating in your thoughts, body, relationships, work, and decision-making. The work can include naming triggers, examining patterns, strengthening boundaries, and building more sustainable ways of responding.
No page can determine whether therapy is appropriate for you or guarantee a particular outcome. Care is individualized and begins with a consultation and clinical fit assessment.

Frequently asked questions
What to know before starting.
Can anxiety therapy be virtual?
Yes, when virtual care is clinically appropriate and the client is eligible for services in Tennessee. The consultation process helps clarify fit and availability.
Do I need an anxiety diagnosis before reaching out?
No diagnosis is required to request a consultation. The website does not diagnose; it describes common concerns people may want to discuss with a licensed professional.
What if my anxiety mostly shows up at work?
Work pressure, perfectionism, over-responsibility, and difficulty setting boundaries can all be relevant topics in therapy when they affect your emotional wellbeing.
Is this an emergency service?
No. Hicks Consulting does not provide emergency or crisis response through the website. Use local emergency services or an appropriate crisis resource when immediate help is needed.
