ANXIETY

Pounding heart, constant worry, and pressure in your chest? These are some of the symptoms of anxiety.

Anxiety is a signal that we are worried that harm may come to our loved ones or ourselves. Sometimes
fear of having an anxiety attack causes a person to become homebound or stay within a few places that
feel safe.

It is very gratifying for me to work with anxious clients and watch their worlds begin to open up again. I love to see my clients live their lives with increased confidence, joy and a sense of accomplishment.

There are many different types of anxiety disorders including:

  • Panic Attacks
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorders
  • Posttraumatic Stress Disorders
  • Generalized Anxiety Disorders
  • Anxiety Disorders caused by a medical condition

Therapy provides a safe place where you can:

  • Understand what triggers your anxiety
  • Develop effective strategies to manage the symptoms
  • Feel stronger and more confident
  • Increase your ability to focus and think clearly
  • Relax and enjoy social situations
  • Feel at ease in the world

Just knowing there is a safe place to talk about your fears with someone understanding can provide immediate relief. Together we can explore the techniques that work best to help you feel calm, confident and relaxed again.

If you're struggling with anxiety and wondering if therapy can help. Please call 707.745.8906 Ex. 742. I'm happy to answer your questions.
