A Therapist for Anxiety

Are you experiencing anxiety?  Did your symptoms start with recent stresses?

Anxiety has many causes, but it is always a signal of distress. It is normal to feel anxious when dealing with life transitions, marital and parenting problems, work issues, and financial challenges. However, if you are not able to find a solution to current stresses, anxiety can escalate. You start to feel overwhelmed and out of control. Your ability to weigh options and make decisions is affected.

Individual psychotherapy for anxiety is effective. It begins with a safe space where you can discuss your fears and concerns and receive tools to address the situation. The current problems may have stirred up old worries. Therapy will help you stop spinning your wheels and consider new ideas and choices. Often, this process can actually make you feel stronger and more resilient.

Do you have persistent anxieties?

Anxiety disorders can be severe and cause serious disruption in your life.

Anxiety disorders are diagnosed when your behavior is seriously affected by chronic fears and your symptoms of anxiety limit your life. You avoid situations or feel too paralyzed to act; you may fear leaving your home. Severe anxiety can also indicate a traumatic reaction of some kind.

It may seem impossible to change your reaction, but recent developments have vastly increased our knowledge and tools for addressing anxiety. It is always helpful to take action!  If you have never met with a therapist for your anxiety, it is important to know how effective psychotherapy can be in dealing with anxiety disorders. If previous therapy was not successful, getting an opinion from another therapist is a crucial step to consider.

Take the first step and set up a diagnostic assessment. An assessment includes two to three sessions. This will provide you with an explanation of what could be causing the problem and a suggested treatment plan. Together, we can discuss realistic goals.
