Anxiety symptoms can feel like constant worry, racing or intrusive thoughts, or a sense that something bad is about to happen, even when there's no clear danger. It can show up in your body as tension, restlessness, trouble sleeping, or difficulty concentrating. There are many causes of anxiety and living with it can be exhausting. It's common to feel stuck or unsure how to break the cycle.
We use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for anxiety, including exposure-based techniques. These therapies help people face fears gradually, change unhelpful thought patterns, and build confidence in handling uncertainty.
We work with many types of anxiety, including:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) – excessive worry about everyday things
Social Anxiety Disorder – fear of judgment or embarrassment in social situations
Panic Disorder – sudden, intense episodes of fear or physical symptoms
Specific Phobias – strong fear of particular objects or situations (like flying or heights)
Health Anxiety / Illness Anxiety Disorder – fear of having or developing a serious illness
Agoraphobia – fear of being in situations where escape might be hard or help isn’t available
With the right anxiety disorder treatment, relief is possible. Therapy helps you understand your symptoms, face fears in manageable steps, and feel more calm, capable, and in control.
