Understanding Anxiety
Anxiety is more than just stress—it’s persistent fear, nervousness, or worry that can keep you from going about your usual activities. Symptoms include:
- Persistent overthinking and excessive worrying
- Difficulty concentrating or feeling mentally “foggy”
- Physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, dizziness, or shortness of breath
- Trouble sleeping, restlessness, or irritability
- Avoidance of social situations or overwhelming responsibilities
Anxiety therapy offers a safe space for you to discuss your struggles and develop coping mechanisms. Our therapists utilize evidence-based techniques such as EMDR, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness strategies to help clients build resilience.
Anxiety Therapy for Young Adults and College Students
Navigating young adulthood comes with its own set of challenges, and anxiety often emerges during these major life transitions. College students and young professionals may feel pressure from academic expectations, social relationships, career decisions, and newfound independence. Therapy By Choice specializes in helping young adults cope with the stress of exams, managing finances, and uncertainty about the future.
Anxiety Therapy for Women and New Mothers
For many women, particularly new mothers, anxiety can feel isolating. There’s always a societal pressure to put your best foot forward and “do it all” perfectly, pretending that everything is fine—and that’s magnified tenfold when you transition into motherhood. Women may experience constant worry about their baby’s health, guilt over returning to work, or fear that they’re not living up to expectations from others or themselves. Therapy offers a confidential space to explore these thoughts without judgment and build tools to manage that anxiety day-to-day. At Therapy By Choice, you’ll learn techniques to reframe anxious thoughts and rediscover your identity outside of roles and responsibilities.
Anxiety Therapy for Middle-Aged and Older Adults
Anxiety, unfortunately, evolves with life’s chapters, and it can follow you well into adulthood. Adults might face anxiety around career demands, financial responsibilities, aging, family transitions, caregiving stress, or health concerns. Whether you’re facing a midlife shift, retirement uncertainties, or grief from loss or change, that anxiety takes a toll. Left unaddressed, it can lead to sleeplessness, tension, chronic worry, and other unpleasant symptoms. Therapy By Choice provides evidence-based anxiety treatment for adults at all stages of life to regain a sense of control and peace.
