Do I have anxiety?

Anxiety is a part of the human experience. It is a natural response to stress or perceived danger, but when it becomes persistent or overwhelming, it can start to limit how you live your life. Anxiety often shows up both mentally and physically, even when there is no immediate threat.

Anxiety may include experiences such as:

  • generalized anxiety (constant worry or mental overactivity)

  • social anxiety or fear of judgment

  • panic attacks or sudden waves of intense fear

  • health-related anxiety

  • perfectionism or fear of making mistakes

  • difficulty relaxing or feeling “on edge”

Many people with anxiety are highly self-aware and capable, yet feel stuck in cycles of worry, avoidance, or nervous-system overwhelm.

Therapy for Anxiety

I approach anxiety therapy from a non-pathologizing, nervous-system-informed perspective. Rather than trying to eliminate anxiety entirely, therapy focuses on understanding what your anxiety is communicating and helping your body feel safer.

Depending on your needs, anxiety therapy may include:

  • EMDR therapy to address underlying experiences or triggers

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to reduce struggle with anxious thoughts and increase acceptance

  • polyvagal-informed strategies to support regulation and grounding

There is hope to create more feelings of calm and help you respond to anxiety when it does arise with more psychological flexibility.
