Treatment for Anxiety
Hey There! Do you suffer from anxiety and want to know if therapy for anxiety will help you? Do you worry? Are you anxious? You know, the type of person who worries about everything. Do you worry about what the future holds for you, but not like necessarily 5 years from now, though that worry is in the back of your mind. No, you’re more worried about the immediate future. You constantly ask yourself “what if” questions. What if they don’t like me? What if my presentation sucks? What if I’m a bad parent? What if my partner doesn’t love me? What if my boss hates me? And much more.
Not only do you have anxiety about the smallest details of the future but you also worry about what happened in the past and replay interactions with others, second guessing what you should have said or not said and what a person meant when they said this or that. Do they like you? Did you do a good job? Does your boss think you’re stupid and the list goes on. All of this builds up your anxiety and you miss out on what is going on right now, which means you’re not enjoying life.
These are just some of the cognitive symptoms of anxiety and maybe seeking treatment for anxiety would benefit you.
Not only does anxiety cause your mind to be taken over with worry but you also suffer those physical symptoms of anxiety. You know what I’m talking about. You get those stress headaches, sometimes migraine, you’re shoulders and neck could crack a walnut open if they get any tighter and you grind your teeth at night, that is if you can actually fall asleep and then stay asleep.
Well, I’m here to tell you there is treatment for anxiety that can help you cope with anxiety, take control of your worries and enjoy living your life in the moment. Join me on this journey together as we explore your treatment for anxiety.
Maybe you’re not convinced you need treatment for anxiety but you wouldn’t be reading this if something didn’t resonate with you. I can’t guarantee your anxiety will completely disappear, in fact some amounts of anxiety is good and can help motivate you to perform well in whatever you do. But if you related to anything that was written above, those anxiety symptoms described can be debilitating. Treatment for anxiety isn’t about banishing it, it’s about managing it. But guess what, you’ve got to do the work. It means more than just having a session with a therapist once a week. If you think about it, you see a therapist for approximately 1 hours a week but there are 168 hours in a week. That’s .60% of your time that you would spend on treatment for anxiety and that’s probably, unfortunately, going to be the percentage of improvement you experience too.
“What?!?! I’ve got to put effort in but I don’t have time with all the worrying I’m doing already.” I get it, life is busy. That’s why I offer online/virtual therapy where all you have to do is login, no worrying about navigating traffic to get to therapy on time. And the work outside of therapy is just implementing changes in your life. It’s like learning the alphabet, at one time you didn’t know it but now you’re able to read and write. Treatment for anxiety is similar in that you learn skills and use them.
So, contact me and let’s get started.
