Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? Therapy can help.
When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. Psychotherapy addresses the underlying problems and teaches skills that are effective in managing anxiety symptoms.
These are some of the symptoms of anxiety:
- Nervousness, restlessness or being tense
- Feelings of danger, panic or dread
- Rapid breathing or hyperventilation
- Increased or heavy perspiration
- 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
- Anxiety surrounding a particular life event or experience that has occurred in the past
Therapy can help you understand the underlying causes of your anxiety, teach you how to relax, help you to look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills.
