It’s become a recurring issue that my manager is adding on a colleague of mine to projects I am working on “to help” or is even giving them projects on clients he knows I work on. Are my feelings of being upset and worried valid? Or am I overreacting?

Why don’t you ask your manager?

I suggest bringing it up to ask why it keeps happening. Are they trying to cross train the other person?

Have a discussion with your manager and ask why they are doing this. It might not be anything personal toward you, but instead, they are trying to give the colleague more experience and things to do.

It might be a good thing - that your manager wants to give you experience training someone more junior
