Therapy for Anxiety
Therapy for Anxiety
Anxiety is more than the nervousness or stress we experience from time-to-time. Anxiety is characterized by intense and persistent worry and fear about everyday activities. Anxiety can make it difficult to get through the day, and do even basic tasks.
You may feel guilty that you can’t “snap out of it”, and power through tasks. But the way you feel is not a sign of weakness or failure, and anxiety is not something you can just turn off on your own.
This is not a battle you have to fight alone. At Pneuma, we offer compassionate, professional counseling to give you the support you need to develop effective coping strategies, and address the root cause of anxiety.
Symptoms of Anxiety
It can be hard to identify if what you or a loved one are experiencing is anxiety, or not.
Here are some common signs that someone is suffering from anxiety:
- Consistently feeling nervous, restless or tenseÂ
- Feeling an impending sense of doom
- Avoiding things that cause anxiety (e.g. public speaking, going outside, etc.)
- Trouble sleepingÂ
- Feeling weak and tired
- Trouble concentrating on things other than the source of stress
- Heavy breathing
- Sweating
- Trembling
- Increased heart rate
- Hyperventilation
These symptoms can range from mild to debilitating, and affect your day-to-day life. If you or someone you know are suffering from some of these symptoms, it may be time to look into counseling for anxiety.
Managing Anxiety
We offer individual counseling to help individuals manage and cope with anxiety. Therapists assist individuals in identifying the root causes of anxiety and depression, challenging negative thought patterns, and fostering adaptive coping mechanisms.
Additionally, counseling sessions may incorporate techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or mindfulness practices, empowering individuals to reduce symptoms, build emotional resilience, and enhance their overall mental well-being.
