Women's Anxiety Therapy in Santa Rosa and Online

Does it seem like you're on an anxiety treadmill and can't get off?

Your thoughts can go a mile a minute and it’s hard to focus. You’re restless, sometimes exhausted, as if you’re carrying a heavy weight. Maybe your schedule and your to-do list seem to have taken over your life too. 

Worry, anxiety, panic—they can leave you feeling like life is spinning out of control.

Take a breath. Anxiety therapy helps pause the treadmill.

When you can return to solid ground anxiety might begin to make more sense.

  • Anxiety is a clue that your mind and body are trying to protect you from danger
  • Although you may feel knocked off balance, it’s possible to soothe your system when it gets confused
  • You didn’t create this problem because you’re not doing enough or your coping skills are flawed

Your experience of anxiety might show up as a nagging worry--just below the surface.

You start to doubt yourself and your choices. Or you find yourself mentally rehearsing the day’s tasks again and again. But it doesn’t bring you peace of mind.

Later, it’s hard to wind down and let go of the day. You’re emotionally drained (and perhaps wide awake).

Did you know anxiety can stem from long-term patterns of over-responsibility and over-functioning?

There’s a reason why women are twice as likely to experience anxiety as men. 

It’s not because we're more nervous or less grounded, but because we tend to deal with more complicated stressors related to past conditioning, work/home life, and relationships. 

Anxiety therapy brings relief when you’re...

  • Overwhelmed from carrying the mental load
  • Stifled by the pressure to be perfect
  • Concerned about body image
  • Disconnected from the joys of life
  • Feeling judgment in social situations
  • Holding yourself back from taking risks

(Together, we can do that.)
