Anxiety Therapy

Our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it

You are tired of your mind spinning and anxiety exhausting your body. You feel like your anxiety is holding you back from the life you want. You feel panicked - your mind feels panicked, your emotions feel panicked, and your body feels panicked.

You worry all the time even about things that “don’t matter.” You have tried talking about it with your friends and family, but they do not know how to help you. You are tired of talking about it. Your stress and anxiety are impacting your sleep, work performance, and relationships and you are ready for help.

What is Anxiety?

Anxiety is the anticipation of future threats. Anxiety creates thoughts of worry, impacts your body, and you feel emotionally tense.

There Are Many Faces of Anxiety

Anxiety can show up in many ways:



Anxiety can be an emotional experience. You can feel anxious about an upcoming event, but it is a temporary feeling. You know that your anxiety will pass.

Anxiety can be a more long-term issue that impacts your life. Some people are pre-disposed to experiencing anxiety and have experienced throughout their lifetime. Also, major life situations create anxious responses: a stressful job, a difficult relationship, getting divorced, or having a baby are just some life events that can increase your stress and anxiety.
