Anxiety Counseling

 

Find relief from anxiety & learn to cope with stress

You feel frazzled and distracted all the time, like there's something important you're forgetting to do. You try to stay organized, but you still feel like you’re always behind. Your mind races, and you can’t sleep because you’re obsessing over what happened today… or worried about what might happen tomorrow… or stressing over everything you need to do. You’re always afraid something will fall through the cracks, and your brain never shuts off - even when you're trying to relax. Or maybe everything is generally okay, but you still feel dissatisfied and unfulfilled for some reason. You feel overwhelmed and unsure about yourself and your future, and no one else seems to be plagued with self-doubt like you are. You wish you could handle stress without spiraling into despair and negativity.

You want to feel confident and self-assured, secure in your decisions and who you are as a person. You want to be able to cope with stress in a healthy way, rather than shutting down or escaping into distractions. You imagine life without anxiety, where you can engage with life without fear. You long for the ability to relax fully, without these racing thoughts constantly distracting you.

You can learn to manage your anxiety and stress in a healthier way, where you’re aware and in control of your thoughts - rather than your brain running the show and constantly creating stress and drama.
