ANXIETY

ANXIETY

Anxiety can present as Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Social Anxiety, phobias, and more. It is often driven by perceived threats and hypervigilance.

Common signs of anxiety include

• Persistent and excessive worry about various aspects of life • Physical symptoms: racing heart, sweating, trembling • Avoidance of feared situations or triggers • Irritability and restlessness • Difficulty concentrating and sleep disturbances

Living in constant worry can feel isolating—but you don’t have to face it alone. In our work together, we will:

1. Use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to challenge catastrophic thinking and develop balanced, realistic perspectives. 2. Introduce Exposure Therapy techniques, so you can gradually face and overcome fearful situations. 3. Teach relaxation practices—breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and mindfulness—to calm your body’s stress response. 4. Provide psychoeducation, helping you understand the anxiety cycle and how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. 5. Develop personalized stress-management strategies, so you feel equipped to handle day-to-day pressures.
