Anxiety Counseling
For those who are tired of hearing “Just don’t worry about it!”
Do people in your life tell you to “just stop worrying so much”?
Do you feel like a failure if you ask for help?
Are you constantly checking your mental check list, fearful that you forgot something or didn’t plan it quite right?
Do digestive issues pop up any time you feel uncomfortable?
Are your thoughts consumed with wondering what others think about you?
Do you feel like you can never settle down and relax no matter how hard you try?
Does your brain jump from one worst case scenario to the next?
Are you procrastinating because you’re worried it won’t be perfect?
I know because I have experienced it too!
What to expect from anxiety counseling
Our first goal in anxiety counseling is to establish a comfortable space for you. Sometimes this takes 5 minutes, and sometimes it takes 5 sessions, but we will go at whatever pace feels best for you.
We will discuss the history of your anxiety and discomfort. We will also talk about your current experiences and how the stress is impacting your life now. Take a breath if you’re worried you don’t know the answers to these questions. That’s what anxiety counseling is for! We will answer the questions and
put the pieces together, together.
With this information we can focus on healing and integrating tools that work specifically for you. There is no one “anxiety protocol”; our goal is to find what feels comfortable and doable to help you get
the control you want back over your life.
And if you’re anxious about picking up the phone, that’s okay! You can reach out for a free phone consultation without having to rehearse what you’re going to say on the phone first. You can fill it out now or in a week after you’ve thought about it every day and you’re ready to cross it off your to-do list.
See? I really do get you.
