Women and Anxiety
Anxiety disorders, the most common mental health conditions in the United States, are more than twice as common in women as in men. Anxiety can have physical as well as mental symptoms, such as excessive mental worry and rumination about "worst case scenarios" and bodily tension like headaches and stomachaches. The "what ifs" can keep people from doing things that they might otherwise benefit from. In this way, living with anxiety can become a vicious cycle of worry and avoidance.

Therapy for Anxiety
Therapy for anxiety includes exploring the root causes of your anxiety, how it shows up in your everyday life, and how to manage it. Some people find pursuing anti-anxiety medication, in addition to talk therapy, to be helpful. In this case, clients are provided with recommendations for appropriate medical providers. You might feel worried but therapy is a safe place to explore the "what if's" of anxiety. That's precisely how we find relief.
