Anxiety Therapy

Anxiety Therapy Can Change Your Quality Of Life. Do you struggle to relax because of all the uncertainty? Is it hard to fall or stay asleep at night as you keep replaying the day’s events? Or do you wake up already feeling overwhelmed by everything you’ll need to figure out? Already feeling overwhelmed by everything you’ll need to figure out in the future?

You may feel disconnected from your body and out of balance, always afraid of letting people down. Life has become a burden, and you just can’t seem to feel happy or carefree like you used to. While picking up all the anxiety triggers going on around you, you may start isolating yourself or feel like you're losing connection. You might be thinking of the worst scenarios and catastrophizing.

You're Not Alone

According to the National Alliance on Mental Health (NAMI), "Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health concern in the United States. An estimated 40 million adults in the U.S. (18%) have an anxiety disorder. Meanwhile, approximately 8% of children and teenagers experience an anxiety disorder. Most people develop symptoms before age 21."

Anxiety Can Wreak Havoc on Your Physical Health

As anxious stress builds, you may start to notice the tension in your body. In addition to difficulty sleeping, you might experience sweaty palms, headaches, upset stomach, or a racing heart rate. And these distressing physical symptoms can leave you feeling claustrophobic and like you’re constantly on the verge of a panic attack. 

In an effort to avoid anxiety triggers, you may start closing yourself off from activities you used to enjoy. You constantly worry about being a burden to your partner, but you aren’t sure how to communicate your needs more clearly. At the same time, you don’t want to let anybody down, so you keep trying to “push through” the stress and avoid necessary rest and self-care. 

All this in an attempt to live up to the standards you think people expect of you. Maybe family and friends are giving advice, but statements like, “Try not to worry, Don't panic” only leave you feeling guilty and misunderstood. 

Most likely you want to know the deeper cause of the anxiety you’ve been feeling. As well as, find the freedom to do things without having to worry.

Many People Believe Their Anxiety Is an Unavoidable Part of Life

Everyone has a low level of anxiety at times. You may be feeling extra anxiety caused by new life transitions and situations. The pressure of homeschooling a child, the expectation to lead your family, and the feeling that you are carrying the weight of the family. All of this, takes a toll on your mental wellbeing. 

Not to mention, in the age of social media, that pressure is harder than ever to avoid. We see our friends “perfect” lives on Facebook or Instagram and can’t help but compare.

Normal Anxiety Vs Chronic Anxiety

While some degree of anxiety is normal, it becomes a problem when it starts to interfere with your life. Often, anxiety doesn’t get better on its own.

Making it all too common for adults with anxiety to treat the symptoms instead of addressing the core issue that is causing those symptoms.

As a therapist, I’ve seen how anxiety can get in the way of the ability to function fully. I’ve also seen how powerful it can be to have the support and guidance of an expert.

What To Expect from Anxiety Therapy:

We’ll start by identifying and setting goals – what you want to change, and what you want to do differently.

You will receive a personalized action plan and learn skills that you can practice between sessions. These include stress reduction techniques, to reduce anxiety before it starts (or before it gets out of hand).
