cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

We’ll work together to identify and challenge negative thought patterns that contribute to anxiety. By replacing them with more balanced and realistic thoughts, you’ll gain tools to manage anxiety effectively. CBT also involves gradual exposure to anxiety-provoking situations, helping you build resilience and reduce avoidance behaviors.

mindfulness and relaxation strategies

Learning mindfulness techniques can significantly reduce anxiety symptoms. Through practices like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and meditation, you’ll develop greater self-awareness and the ability to stay present in the moment. These skills empower you to respond to anxiety triggers with calmness and clarity.

self-compassion and emotion regulation

Anxiety often thrives on self-criticism and perfectionism. In therapy, we’ll explore self-compassion, teaching you to treat yourself with kindness and understanding. Additionally, we’ll focus on emotional regulation - helping you recognize and manage intense emotions effectively. Building emotional resilience allows you to navigate anxiety more skillfully and find a sense of balance.
