Treatment for Anxiety
Anxiety can make you feel like you do not have any control over your life. You can find it hard to settle your thoughts down. Sometimes, anxiety seems to make thoughts in your mind play over and over, on repeat. Happy moments in life can be hard to enjoy. Often, you are waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Can you relate to any of these anxious experiences?
We work with clients to overcome feeling overwhelmed by anxiety. Helping clients to laugh freely, relax fully, to ground themselves in the face of fear. We can show you how to worry less and enjoy your life right now.
Anxiety is not your fault. Our experiences from the past or lessons from others teach us what is scary. You may feel upset about being anxious, and this leads to more feelings of worry. Learn more about the anxiety cycle.
Anxiety and Procrastination
Do you find specific tasks to be so unpleasant that you avoid doing them? Or maybe it is something straightforward that you have been putting off for a while. Whatever it is, this may have become a problem for you in your professional and personal life. Procrastination is the process of avoiding a situation or task that causes stress. When someone procrastinates, stress levels may lower; however, guilt begins to set in. Feelings of guilt, in turn, raise anxiety levels. Procrastination can be a vicious cycle to break. Nevertheless, we understand. We have the training to help you take the steps necessary to escape the trap of procrastination. Read our blog post on Overcoming Procrastination.

Even more, panic may feel like you are dying or that you or your body is losing control. Attacks can show up with a few symptoms.
