What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is more than just stress or worry. It’s a constant sense of unease that lingers, even when life is going “okay” on the surface. Anxiety can feel like your mind is always “on,” racing through what-ifs, expecting the worst, and never letting you fully rest.
For some, anxiety shows up as physical symptoms—tightness in the chest, restlessness, difficulty sleeping. For others, it’s a cycle of overthinking, self-doubt, or feeling on edge in everyday situations. Left untreated, anxiety can make even simple tasks feel overwhelming.
The good news is: you don’t have to stay stuck in this cycle. With the right support, you can learn how to quiet your mind, regulate your body, and feel more at ease in your life.

Anxiety FAQs
How do I know if my anxiety is “serious enough” for therapy?
If anxiety is impacting your sleep, relationships, work, or overall peace of mind, it’s worth seeking help. You don’t need to wait until things feel unbearable—therapy is about preventing anxiety from taking over.
What does anxiety treatment look like?
Our therapists use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and mindfulness techniques to help you identify anxious thought patterns, calm your nervous system, and build new ways of coping.
How long will therapy take?
Everyone’s journey is different. Some clients find relief after a few sessions, while others benefit from ongoing support. Your therapist will work with you to set goals and pace therapy in a way that feels right for you.
Can therapy really help with physical symptoms of anxiety?
Yes. Anxiety is both a mental and physical experience. Therapy can help you understand your body’s responses, and you’ll learn strategies to regulate your nervous system, which often reduces physical symptoms like tension and rapid heartbeat.
