Frequently Asked Questions:

 How can seeing a therapist for anxiety help me? 

Working with a therapist for anxiety can be helpful because it gives you a place to explore all aspects of your anxiety without judgment and with complete confidentiality. This means that everything you discuss will remain private and you can feel secure as you begin to understand where all the worries are coming from. Your therapist will also work with you to learn how to cope with anxious thoughts and the discomfort that comes with the various situations and triggers that cause you to be anxious. In addition, by using a trauma informed approach, your therapist will also help you heal the past hurts that may be keeping you stuck in cycles of anxiety and panic.

How do I know if I actually need therapy for anxiety?

We all experience anxiety to some extent. It is our brain and body’s way to let us know that we should be on the lookout for danger. Sometimes our internal alarm system becomes overly sensitive and can result in feelings of anxiety, danger and panic even when there isn’t actually a threat. If you’re experiencing frequent anxiety in seemingly normal situations and it is causing you to stop doing things that you would like to do, or it is causing you to feel irritable, restless, or constantly on edge, then seeing a therapist can be beneficial. Some other symptoms that might be a hint that you should seek therapy for anxiety are: insomnia, frequent unexplainable headaches or stomach pains, and difficulty concentrating.

How many sessions will it take for therapy to help with my anxiety?

Many people find that just 8-10 sessions can help them start feeling better, but this depends on many factors like the severity of the symptoms and their causes. However there isn’t one answer that is right for everyone. At the start of treatment for anxiety, you can discuss your goals with your therapist and collaboratively decide what the best approach is. Some people prefer to develop coping mechanisms that can alleviate symptoms immediately, even if it is short term. Others prefer to do deeper work and engage in long term treatment. Your therapist will work with you to understand your goals and individualize treatment for you accordingly.
