You’ve probably heard the term “anxiety” before but what does that look like in real life?

 

Here’s an idea of how anxiety shows up for most adults:

  • It feels like your schedule runs you instead of the other way around.

  • You’re constantly worrying, rushing, always catching up, and overwhelmed by the day’s tasks before you leave your house in the morning.

  • You have trouble winding down in the evening which then negatively impacts your ability to sleep well.

  • You feel distant or disconnected from loved ones.

  • You have trouble enjoying the here and now.

Your thoughts and behaviors are powerful and they impact every area of your life.

The key to overcoming anxiety is to learn to focus on what is in YOUR control. You’ll learn how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and HeartMath can help you better manage your emotions.

Your patterns of reacting are learned responses. That means you can modify them. I offer therapy in San Diego for anxiety, depression, loss… the common things I see that lead to a sense of being overwhelmed.

In therapy, we work together to help you:

  • Identify destructive patterns that negatively impact your relationships.

  • Identify how your self-talk can help or hurt you in almost every situation.

  • Overcome habits that hold you back and keep you playing small.

  • Learn practical ways to modify your thoughts and actions.

  • Practice these newly learned techniques in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

  • Evaluate what works, adjust as needed, and continue practicing.

Most importantly, my role is to help you learn the importance of self-respect and self-compassion throughout this process.

When you enter my San Diego office, my goal is for you to feel comfortable, safe, heard, and respected.

If you’re ready to seek support for your anxiety, please schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation and start choosing differently today.
