Is Anxiety Taking Up Too Much Space in Your Life?
Do you find yourself constantly overthinking, worrying about what might happen, or replaying situations in your mind? Maybe you appear calm and capable on the outside, but inside your mind rarely seems to slow down.
Anxiety can leave you feeling overwhelmed, restless, exhausted, and disconnected from the present moment. You may know logically that you are safe or that everything will probably be okay, yet your mind and body continue to react as if something is wrong.
If this sounds familiar, therapy can help.
You don’t have to wait until anxiety becomes unbearable to seek support. Together, we can work to understand what is driving your anxiety, recognize the patterns that keep it going, and develop healthier ways of responding to your thoughts, emotions, and triggers.
Anxiety Can Look Different for Everyone
You may experience:
Constant worrying or overthinking
Feeling nervous, restless, tense, or on edge
Difficulty quieting your mind
Racing thoughts or expecting the worst
Feeling a need to control situations or outcomes
Difficulty concentrating
Trouble sleeping
Physical tension, rapid heartbeat, or shortness of breath
Panic or feelings of dread
Avoiding situations because of fear or anxiety
Replaying conversations or questioning your decisions
Feeling overwhelmed by things that others may consider small
Sometimes anxiety is connected to current stress or a major life transition. Other times, it may be connected to past experiences, trauma, relationship patterns, or beliefs about yourself that developed long ago.
How I Can Help
My approach goes beyond simply helping you manage symptoms. Together, we can explore what may be underneath your anxiety while also developing practical tools to help you feel more grounded and in control of how you respond.
Depending on your individual needs, I may incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT-informed skills, mindfulness, experiential approaches, and EMDR.
For some people, painful or overwhelming past experiences continue to trigger anxiety in the present—even when they intellectually know the danger has passed. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I can help you process experiences that may be contributing to these reactions so they no longer have the same emotional intensity or influence over your life.
Therapy can help you better understand yourself, respond differently to anxiety, build trust in your ability to handle difficult emotions, and begin living with greater clarity and confidence.
You Don’t Have to Let Anxiety Make Your Decisions for You
