Reduce, as anxiety (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ease

'reduce as anxiety' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ease that I've seen before include "Reduce (pain)" , "Effortlessness" , "Lack of difficulty" , "Affluence" , "Facilitate; repose" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and the New York Times.
