The Anxiety MD | Neuroscientist
Healing Anxiety at the Root
Moving beyond cognitive therapy to heal the body-centered "alarm" that drives chronic anxiety.
Dr. Russell Kennedy ("The Anxiety MD") is a physician, neuroscientist, and certified yoga instructor who specializes in treating anxiety by focusing on its physical, somatic roots rather than just mental, cognitive therapies.
A former chronic anxiety sufferer himself, Dr. Russ understands the limitations of traditional "talk therapy" for deep-seated alarm. He authored the groundbreaking book Anxiety Rx to promote a body-centered approach that bridges the gap between modern neuroscience, focused meditation, and somatic experiencing.
His mission is to provide a roadmap for those trapped in the cycle of "what if" thinking by teaching them how to find safety within their own bodies. By combining his clinical background with eastern wisdom, he helps patients transform their relationship with anxiety from the inside out.
