Anxiety Therapy

Are you having difficulty controlling your worries lately? Have you found that your mind is on an endless hamster wheel? Maybe you often feel “on edge” and easily irritated. You wish you could just relax a little more and enjoy the present moment. But instead, you feel restless, keyed up, and constantly worried. No matter how exhausted you get however, you just can’t unwind and you’re having trouble sleeping. Worst of all, your mind doesn’t ever just stop!

If this sounds like you, we invite you to begin working with one of our highly trained Mental Health Therapists. Anxiety Therapy is one of the areas we specialize in. After all, we are the Center for Trauma, Stress, and Anxiety!

What sets us apart from other Mental Health Counselors is our holistic approach to Anxiety Therapy. Whether you are experiencing physical symptoms (like frequent headaches or stomach problems), cognitive symptoms (like brain fog, or poor attention, memory, or focus), or both – the mind-body connection is prioritized in our approach to Anxiety Therapy. Your therapist will help you explore the root of your anxious thoughts, identify where your anxiety is showing up in your body, and teach you grounding exercises to settle your mind and body.

Your therapist will also help you challenge your anxious thoughts while teaching you how to regulate your nervous system, which is found to be critical in the treatment of Anxiety. This mind-body approach will give you the break your mind and body have been craving. You will know when Anxiety Therapy is working because your mind will be free to explore and your body will finally feel relaxed again.

What Is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy?
