The world today is engineered to give people anxiety. We all face constant pressure from work, family, friends, and social media. On top of that, in today’s political climate it is easy to feel a stressed. Anxiety can take many forms, and we can work together to help you address your issues with anxiety so that you can live a more engaged life. Here are just a few types of anxiety that I help treat:

Feeling Out of Control

Feeling out of control can lead to obsessive thoughts, unhealthy ways of coping, and efforts to micro-manage your life or your partner’s life. This type of anxiety takes away from being in the present moment, feeling connected, being able to rest, and enjoying your life. Through the use of talk therapy and mind-body approaches, such as yoga and mindfulness, we will work to help you feel centered and able to manage this anxiety.

Social Anxiety

Maybe you feel anxious in crowds or talking to other people. You might feel trapped and overwhelmed by your own emotions. Together we can work to help you feel more comfortable in social situations. You will learn skills to help you manage stress and navigate difficult interactions. I will work with you to move towards whatever social life you desire.

Professional Anxiety

You may feel that you are never working enough, studying enough, and are never smart enough. Emails arrive at 11pm on a Saturday and you feel pressured to answer them, worrying that you will be viewed negatively if you wait until Monday. In therapy you can learn new ways to set boundaries and stick to them as well as healthy coping skills for professional stress. When you feel better you can perform better at work or school, while staying focused on your professional goals.
