Why Anchored not Anxious Exists

Anxiety is my lived experience from childhood worries to adult panic attacks.

My journey taught me medication, professional help, practical strategies, and trust in God acts like an anchor. Belief in God for me and with me brings relief and peace during and after the emotional storm.

As a nurse and believer in Jesus, an integrated approach of professional knowledge, personal experience, and spiritual practice is what I offer to you seeking relief from anxiety, worry, overwhelm, and stress.

Your identity and power can be rooted in Jesus Christ.

Hello I'm Terri,

it's so nice to meet you!

Here's a little something about me. I am an author, podcast host of Anchored Not Anxious, and registered nurse. My nursing expertise is in oncology and hospice care as well as anxiety, depression, and distress triage. I have published articles in the Journal of Holistic Nursing and Clinical Journal of Oncology.

My greatest joy has been caring for and educating veterans and non-veteran patients through their cancer journey. When I'm not writing and podcasting, I enjoy golf, creating mixed media art and quilling as well as time with family.

I love nature and draw near to God as I take in the beauty and variety using my sight, smell, hearing, and touch. My relationship with God is the most important in my life. By anchoring my trust in Him, I know nothing can separate me from Him. And this brings peace in the chaos.
