Experiencing occasional feelings of being overwhelmed is common, as stress can sometimes enhance productivity. However, when this feeling spirals out of control and transforms into chronic stress, it can negatively impact both mental and physical well-being. Feeling overwhelmed manifests as struggling to manage tasks or stress, resulting in challenges with daily functioning. It encompasses being inundated by thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations linked to a specific concern or facing difficulty falling asleep due to persistent ruminating over an extended period.

Anxiety can manifest in various ways, often including:

• Negative thoughts
• Excessive worry
• Irritability
• Tension
• Trouble sleeping
• Difficulty concentrating

It can feel like a constant battle with overthinking and fearfulness. Anxiety is not just a set of symptoms; it’s an experience that can be deeply intertwined with personal history and trauma.

In our therapy sessions, we dive deep into understanding the root causes of your anxiety. I firmly believe that issues like anxiety and depression often stem from past traumas and deeply ingrained messages received from family, society, or personal experiences. In some cases, worry becomes pervasive and chronic, causing anxiety to develop into a more severe issue. For example, Panic Disorders, Social Phobias, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and other types of Phobias such medical / air travel.

I also focus on recognizing and building upon your inner strengths. Many of my clients have shown incredible resilience through years of challenging experiences. This resilience is a testament to the strengths you already possess, which can be pivotal in overcoming anxiety that interferes in your personal life , work and community.

In our sessions, you would also be able to track your progress through therapeutic assignments and questionnaires that have been clinically proven to have a better relationship on how to manage anxiety symptoms.For example, Exposure Therapy , CBT and Mindfulness exercises.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or if you’re struggling with negative thoughts and fearfulness, please remember that you’re not alone. There is hope, and together, we can work towards overcoming these challenges.
