    Anxiety

    Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? 

    When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – treats more than just symptoms of the problem.

    Often, these are the symptoms of anxiety:

    • Nervousness, restlessness, or being tense
    • Feelings of danger, panic, or dread
    • Rapid breathing or hyperventilation
    • Increased or heavy sweating
    • Trembling or muscle twitching
    • Weakness or lethargy
    • Difficulty focusing or thinking clearly about anything other than the thing you’re worried about
    • Insomnia
    • Obsessions about certain ideas; a sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder
    • Anxiety surrounding a particular life event or experience that has occurred in the past; a sign of post-traumatic stress disorder

    Therapy can help to uncover the underlying causes of your worries and fears, learn relaxation techniques, look at situations from a new perspective, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.
