Anxiety Can Look Different for Everyone

Anxiety isn’t always obvious. Some people experience intense fear or panic, while others appear calm on the outside but feel overwhelmed internally.

You may benefit from anxiety therapy if you experience:

Persistent or excessive worrying
Overthinking or difficulty quieting your thoughts
Panic attacks or sudden feelings of fear
Feeling tense, restless, or constantly on edge
Difficulty concentrating
Irritability
Trouble sleeping because your mind won’t slow down
Social anxiety or fear of being judged
Avoidance of situations that make you uncomfortable
Perfectionism or fear of making mistakes
Physical symptoms associated with anxiety
Difficulty relaxing even when there is no immediate problem
Anxiety related to relationships, work, family, or major life changes

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health concerns, and it is very treatable. The National Institute of Mental Health explains the different types of anxiety and how they are treated.

How Therapy Can Help With Anxiety

Therapy provides a space to understand what’s contributing to your anxiety rather than simply trying to push the feelings away.

Depending on your individual needs, therapy may help you identify anxiety triggers, recognize unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, regulate difficult emotions, establish boundaries, improve communication, and become more confident responding to stressful situations.

Your therapist will work collaboratively with you to develop a treatment plan based on your experiences and goals.

Because anxiety and depression often show up together, you may also want to explore our depression therapy services.

Our Approach to Anxiety Therapy

There is no single approach that works for everyone.

Our therapists use evidence-informed approaches tailored to each client’s individual needs, goals, and preferences.

Therapy may include exploring patterns of thinking and behavior, developing practical coping strategies, increasing emotional awareness, strengthening relationships, and addressing experiences that may contribute to current anxiety.

Your therapist will discuss treatment options with you and help determine an approach that feels appropriate for you.

What to Expect

Beginning therapy doesn’t require having everything figured out.

During your first sessions, your therapist will spend time learning about what you’re experiencing, what has been happening in your life, and what you hope will be different.

Together, you’ll identify goals for therapy and begin developing strategies for creating meaningful change.

Therapy is collaborative. Your questions, preferences, experiences, and feedback are an important part of the process.
