Anxiety and stress
Do you experience one or more of the following?
Feeling worried about what people think about you
Feeling worried about your health
Feeling like an ‘imposter’ at work
Experiencing nausea or other aches and pains
Always finding something to worry about
Feeling panicky
Feeling stressed out
Difficulty sleeping
Difficulty concentrating
Difficulty ‘switching off’
Feeling restless or on edge
How counselling can help:
Counselling can help you better understand the nature of anxiety and the important role it plays in our lives. It can help identify not just what makes you anxious, but why.
Whilst it may prove impossible or even undesirable to remove anxiety and stress completely, counselling can help better understand your thought patterns, recognise your particular triggers for anxiety, and to build coping mechanisms that work for you. This should help you avoid some of the ‘downward spirals’ you may have experienced in the past, and learn to live with stress and anxiety rather than experience them as frustrating at best, and overwhelming and debilitating at worst.
Coping mechanisms that help often include ones that are somatic in nature i.e. that focus on the body and our senses e.g. breathing and grounding exercises.
If you identify as ‘an anxious person’, counselling can also shed light on the origins of this and to help you relate to yourself differently if this is something you’re looking for.
Whilst often unwelcome, anxiety and stress are part of our everyday experience. Counselling acknowledges this and explores how to better manage it rather than trying to rid yourself of it. Counselling can serve as a useful alternative or as a complement to any anti-anxiety medication already prescribed by your GP.
