Frequently Asked Questions About Anxiety Therapy
Anxiety therapy helps you understand the root causes of your anxiety and develop practical tools to manage it. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and somatic therapy to help you break the cycle of anxious thoughts and feel more grounded in your daily life.
Sessions typically involve exploring the thoughts, feelings, and patterns that fuel your anxiety, learning practical coping strategies, and working through underlying experiences that may be contributing to how you feel.
