How Can Therapy Help?
Anxiety comes from a number of sources. Sometimes it is purely biochemical, but often times, it is much more complex than that. Our life experiences and development shape how our brain and body respond to stress. They also influence what we perceive as stress in the first place.
​
Therapy can help you learn to better identify the difference between real and imagined fear. It can help you learn how your anxiety works so you can stay ahead of it. And it can help you learn coping and regulating skills to decrease the impact worry and panic can have on your life.
​
In many cases, we can also use EMDR therapy to decrease the fear response you have in the first place. And for those who medication is appropriate for, we provide referrals and consultation. You deserve to feel okay in your body.
