Anyone know if there are any in the area ? I’d really like to start meditation to help with my anxiety but I honestly don’t even know where to begin and I’d love to do it with some sort of group if possible.

I do some meditation workshops at The Pearl at the Columbia Lakefront. I have a class pack so I don't go regularly, but there's a sound meditation class on Tuesdays at 6:45pm and 10:30am Saturdays.
I like floating meditation (you meditate suspended in a hammock), which is Sundays at 12:30. I prefer the floating meditation because hey, making time to lie in a hammock is cool, and also sometimes the sounds used in sound meditation can be too distracting for me. Though sometimes there's construction noises from the Whole Foods nearby so noise level can vary by day.
If you wanna try a one-time thing, there's a floating meditation workshop coming up on Sunday, November 13 at 3:00pm.
Yoga Center of Columbia has some too, but I haven't been there since before the pandemic. Nothing wrong with them, I just haven't made the time. It's worth checking their class schedule. I would say Pearl is more like a spa and Yoga Center of Columbia is more like a fitness studio, in terms of atmosphere.
