Feeling nervous or anxious when experiencing financial difficulty, making a significant life change, or when ask to give a presentation is common. However, frequent anxiety about everyday tasks such as housework, grocery shopping, and paying the bills takes a toll. Consequently, you may avoid people, situations, and things because they increase your anxiety.
Ignoring anxiety triggers does not treat their underlying cause. Instead, you may feel stuck, isolated, and depressed. Conversely, addressing your anxiety triggers and building on your strengths can prepare you to face and overcome uncomfortable, fearful feelings.
Anxiety therapy can help you get back to living life without feeling overwhelmed by a constant sense of worry. Our anxiety therapists can help you learn to cope with and let go of fears that are holding you back.
