Understanding and Managing Anxiety
Are you feeling overwhelmed by persistent worry, racing thoughts, or an unshakable sense of unease?
You’re not alone. Anxiety is a common and deeply personal experience, and I want you to know that I see and understand the challenges it can bring.
Recognizing Signs of Anxiety
Anxiety can stem from various sources and triggers, often manifesting in different ways. It might arise from life transitions like new job opportunities, becoming a parent, planning a wedding, starting a family, or dealing with the complexities of aging parents. These changes can evoke uncertainty, fear, and stress.
You might notice signs of anxiety in yourself through:
- Persistent worry about everyday situations.
- Restlessness or feeling constantly on edge.
- Racing thoughts and difficulty concentrating.
- Physical symptoms such as a rapid heartbeat or muscle tension.
- Avoidance of situations that trigger anxiety.
- Sleep disturbances and fatigue.
Learn to Manage Your Anxiety
I’m committed to helping you manage and overcome anxiety. I draw from a combination of therapeutic approaches to address your unique needs:
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This approach allows us to reshape unhelpful thought patterns, empowering you to regain control over your anxiety.
Relationship Therapy: I understand the impact of connections and relationships on your emotional well-being. Exploring relational dynamics can be instrumental in managing anxiety.
Psychodynamic Therapy: By delving into longstanding patterns and early experiences that influence your emotional responses, we can gain a deeper understanding of your anxiety and its roots.
What to Expect in Therapy
Starting therapy can bring a mix of emotions, and I want you to feel informed and comfortable as you start this journey. In your sessions, you can expect a safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space where you can openly discuss your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Therapy is a dynamic process, and your active participation is key. As we progress, you’ll gain insights into the roots of your anxiety, develop practical coping skills, and work towards lasting change. I am here to support, guide, and empower you every step of the way.
