You may be experiencing Anxiety.
Anxiety is a normal aspect of life. In fact, almost everyone has experienced excessive worry or dread. However, anxiety becomes maladaptive when it begins to impact your work performance, relationships with others, and your ability to take care of yourself. Anxiety manifests differently in every individual. Many people who struggle with anxiety become consumed with the worry or panic, making it difficult to be present in the moment. People often try to manage their stress by avoiding stressors, which may include certain people, places, and things. Over time, you may begin to feel like you are a prisoner to your anxiety.
Anxiety can be isolating, but you are not alone. One goal of therapy is for you to feel empowered to manage symptoms of anxiety!
Treating anxiety can lead to a more fulfilling life.
At this practice, anxiety treatment sessions begin with exploring the history of your anxiety in order to gain a better understanding of the underlying causes that trigger your anxious behaviors or overwhelming feelings. Since anxiety impacts our bodies, treatment will also focus on utilizing somatic techniques to address the mind-body connection and the physical manifestations of stress, such as muscle tension, fast heartrate, and rapid breathing. Using a strengths-based therapy technique, we will also explore what avenues have worked for you in the past for managing your anxiety. In addition, new techniques and methods will be introduced to help you take control of your anxiety.
You will find support in reaching your therapy goals by strengthening the methods that have worked for you previously as well as exploring new strategies that may help in managing anxiety symptoms.
