Find Calm in Chaos: Therapy for Anxiety

Anxiety can make every day feel like an uphill battle. Whether it's a constant worry about health, unexpected panic attacks, financial concerns that weigh on your mind, feeling overwhelmed in social settings, or an overall sense of dread, anxiety takes away the peace you deserve. You don't have to face this alone—healing and relief are possible.

Common Types of Anxiety

Health Anxiety
Health anxiety is when you're constantly worried about your health, even when doctors say you're fine. You might overthink small things like a headache or a weird feeling in your body, imagining it's something serious like cancer or a heart problem. It’s hard to stop Googling symptoms or checking your body for signs something’s wrong. Even when tests come back normal, the fear doesn’t really go away.

Panic Attacks
A panic attack feels like your body is freaking out for no clear reason. Your heart races, it’s hard to breathe, and you might feel dizzy, shaky, or sweaty. It can feel like you’re dying or having a heart attack, or like you’re completely losing control. Even though it’s not dangerous, it’s really scary in the moment, and it can leave you exhausted afterward.

Financial Anxiety
Financial anxiety is when you’re constantly stressed about money. You might worry about paying bills, having enough for the future, or making ends meet. Even small purchases can feel overwhelming, and you might find yourself avoiding looking at your bank account or feeling guilty for spending. It’s like money is always on your mind, and it’s hard to feel calm or in control.

Social Anxiety
Social anxiety is when you feel really nervous or uncomfortable around people, especially in groups or new situations. You might worry about saying the wrong thing, embarrassing yourself, or being judged. Even normal stuff like talking in a meeting, going to a party, or making small talk can feel overwhelming. It’s like your brain keeps telling you that everyone’s watching or criticizing you, even when they’re probably not.

Generalized Anxiety
When worry permeates all aspects of your life, it’s hard to feel grounded or relaxed. Generalized anxiety disorder can make even small tasks seem daunting, with constant worry about a range of things—from work to relationships to safety.
