Anxiety

Anxiety Counseling for Professionals, College Students, Graduate Students, Teachers, Administrators, Clergy, Nurses, and Other Professionals Across Virginia

Anxiety can make it difficult to focus, relax, or enjoy life. The constant pressure to meet expectations—whether at work, in school, or in your personal life—can leave you feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. If worry, stress, or fear is interfering with your daily life, you are not alone, and support is available.


Signs You May Be Struggling with Anxiety:
  • Persistent worry or overthinking, even about small things

  • Feeling restless, on edge, or unable to relax

  • Difficulty concentrating or feeling easily overwhelmed

  • Trouble sleeping due to racing thoughts or excessive stress

  • Physical symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or stomach issues

  • Avoiding situations or tasks due to fear or nervousness

  • Feeling like you can’t shut your brain off or escape the cycle of stress


How Therapy Can Help:
  • Learn techniques to calm racing thoughts and manage stress

  • Develop coping skills to handle anxiety in work, school, or personal life

  • Improve focus and decision-making when anxiety feels paralyzing

  • Build confidence and reduce self-doubt or fear of failure

  • Address perfectionism and set healthier expectations for yourself

  • Work on relaxation techniques to improve sleep and reduce physical tension

  • Gain tools to navigate social anxiety, workplace stress, or life transitions
