Therapy for anxiety can address:

Mental Symptoms
Anxiety can be experienced as worry, fear, nervousness, excessive concern, or a feeling of dread or doom.

Behavioral symptoms
Anxiety can influence our behaviors and the way we act. Behavioral symptoms can include avoiding certain situations, withdrawing from social activities, excessive distractions, and too much time on social media.

Cognitive symptoms
Anxiety can impact your thinking processes. You may notice difficulty concentrating (or concentrating too much on unhelpful things), trouble making decisions, or feeling like your thoughts are racing.

Physical symptoms
Anxiety can cause uncomfortable physical sensations, like a racing heart, shortness of breath, sweating, trembling, nausea, dizziness, and muscle tension.
These symptoms can be extremely difficult, but there is hope! Anxiety therapy can teach you skills to lessen these symptoms so you can focus on living your life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Anxiety
