Does it feel like you are always on edge?


“Why can’t I just relax?”


    • You may find it hard to sleep because your mind just won’t quiet down. You lie in bed, tossing and turning, unable to shake off the day or a nagging problem.

    • You could experience dizziness sometimes for no clear reason or notice some tingling or numbness in different parts of your body.

    • Experiencing an uneasy feeling in your stomach may develop. It’s like your stomach is constantly in knots. You may not have the appetite you used to, with food just not appealing, or you might end up eating more often, hoping that something will ease that discomfort.

    • Concentrating can be a real struggle too. You might catch yourself forgetting things or having to remind yourself of what you were doing just moments ago.

    • Irritability or becoming more short tempered with others becomes more apparent.

    • You may start avoiding situations that make you feel overwhelmed, anxious or panicky.




Feeling anxious can be really lonely and can impact many parts of your life...

    • It might bring on headaches, keep you up at night, leave you feeling drained, and even mess with your nerves and digestion.

    • You might notice that your relationships start to feel the strain too. It can be tough to manage irritability, keep up with chores around the house, or even just spend time with others when anxiety is hanging over you.

    • At work or school, it can be hard to focus like you used to. You might find your performance slipping and feel less productive overall.

    • Over time, this kind of anxiety can also bring down your self-esteem and lead to feelings of depression.


Helping you take control of your anxiety.

Together we can work to put your worries away.

Specialized therapy for anxiety can help you feel calm and focused again.

  • Greater Self-Awareness. Learn to become more aware of how your own thought patterns and personal triggers lead to anxiety, so you can respond thoughtfully in every situation, even stressful ones.

  • Better Physical Health. You may find that with less anxiety you can lower your blood pressure due to regaining a sense of calm in your mind and less stress about your overall health as you go about your day. You may also find that your immune system is stronger and that you can get the sleep you’ve been longing for once again.

  • Goal Development and Accomplishment. When you notice less anxiety or the absence of anxiety, you have the inner resources needed to develop and clarify  personal and professional goals that you envision for yourself. Putting that mental list of what you’d like to get done for the day flows and feels easier. You can find that you also have the mental clarity to focus on accomplishing these important goals and feeling really good about your success throughout the day. 


  • Increased Confidence. Gaining control over your anxiety can result in becoming more confident and bringing more opportunities to build your self-esteem. You may find that you are wanting to try those things you were once afraid of trying or saying things that you’ve always wanted to say without the worry that once stopped you and kept you back. 

  • Greater Sense of Peace and Stability. In the absence of daily anxiety, you can develop  a sense of calm and secure understanding of how you will be able to navigate your day and interactions with others in a more thoughtful way.

  • Enjoyment has returned. With less anxiety you may find that you enjoy and look forward to spending time with friends and family once again, smiling and laughing more.  You may also find that you have the peace of mind to appreciate hobbies and activities that perhaps were more of a struggle when feeling anxious, finding yourself enjoying the process and participation again. 



Experiencing anxiety steals our sense of calm and wellbeing. It can cause disruptions with those we care about and how we go about managing our day. Anxiety can have a long term effect on our home, work, and school lives.
