You are the expert on your life.
We are the experts in anxiety, eating disorders, and OCD. Together, we’ll get you where you want to go.
Our mission is to help you live in line with your values — not your fears
- Maybe you value travel, but anxiety makes flying feel impossible.
- Maybe you value nights out, but you stay at home to manage your child’s anxiety.
- Maybe you value connection, but social anxiety means declining more invitations than you accept.
- Maybe you value balance, but perfectionism at work leaves you unable to truly unplug.
Whatever form anxiety takes in your life, you’re probably here because you’re tired of feeling limited. If you’re ready to take back control and do what you actually want to do, you’re in the right place.
Houston Anxiety and Wellness Center was founded with a clear focus:
Dr. Ivy Ruths spent more than fifteen years working across hospitals, university clinics, residential treatment facilities, and in private practice before building the team she’d always envisioned — one where clinicians could offer more services, help more people, and change more lives together.
Our team includes licensed psychologists, professional counselors, and doctoral clinicians — all specializing in anxiety, OCD, and eating disorder treatment for kids, teens, adults, and parents.
We are proud to support clients in person at our Montrose office and online across 42 states.
