Anxiety is an emotion that is a natural and healthy part of the human experience. Anxiety evolved as a means to keep us safe from threats and motivated to remain productive and healthy. However, there are times that anxiety becomes unhelpful and can impact our ability to function in areas such as school, work, relationships, family, etc. Anxiety Disorders are treatable! I use evidence-based practices to build understanding of anxiety and to slowly reduce areas of avoidance impacting functioning. Exposure and Response Prevention focuses on gradually facing feared stimuli to support your body's ability to recalibrate what is 'safe'. Acceptance and Committment Therapy supports clients in building a values-based lifestyle. Treatment for anxiety can feel overwhelming. I encourage you to reach out for a free consult. I can share more information on treatment and identify a pace that feels right for you. With ERP, you will never be 'forced' into exposures. You will be directing treatment and deciding what challenges you are willing and able to take on as you redefine your relationship with anxiety.
