Anxiety
- Do worry and anxiety keep me from sleeping on a frequent basis ?
- Do worry and anxiety keep me from enjoying people or activities ?
- Am I so concerned about how I’m being perceived that I am uncomfortable or self-conscious around people ?
- Do I replay situations over and over in my mind, worrying that I did something wrong or that someone else did something to me ?
- Do I drink alcohol to feel calm and in control and sometimes drink to excess ?
You are not alone
Worry that brings us to a solution can be productive but excessive anxiety robs us of peace.
Anxiety can develop a life of its own. You may find that certain types of situations trigger anxiety and that when one worry is quieted another takes its place. People who worry too much often feel tortured by their own thoughts and seek relief through avoidance of situations, excessive escape through substances, shopping, or too much screen time. If you find that you worry too much, know that help is possible.
How I can help your anxiety
Working with anxiety involves understanding the nature and source of the worry, working with thoughts to make them less scary, working with the body to help it relax, working with life situations to make them better, and working with energy to clear fears. Many people who come to me say, “I know I shouldn’t worry so much about this, but…” If you’re one of these people, or if you answered “yes” to any of the questions above, please call. I enjoy helping worriers find a better way of being and to minimize their fear and anxiety.
