Counseling for Anxiety
Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try?
If this sounds like you, I’m confident I can help. My practice offers effective forms of treatment, to get the relief from anxiety that you deserve.
When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that psychotherapy is a very effective option. Psychotherapy treats more than just symptoms of anxiety, it helps to discover the underlying causes of your anxiety.
Some of the most common symptoms of anxiety are:
- Nervousness, restlessness or being tense
- Feelings of danger, panic or dread
- Rapid breathing or hyperventilation
- Increased or heavy sweating
- Trembling or muscle twitching
- Weakness or lethargy
- Difficulty focusing or thinking clearly about anything other than the thing you’re worried about
- Insomnia
- Obsessions about certain ideas, a sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder
- Anxiety surrounding a particular life event or experience that has occurred in the past, a sign of post-traumatic stress disorder
Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, learn how to relax, look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.
