Anxiety Counseling
Anxiety is not your fault. Learn how to manage anxiety in therapy tailored to your needs. You don’t have to stay stuck feeling on edge, overwhelmed, panicked, tense, or constantly worried. You’re worth the investment to start therapy today so you can quiet the noise, feel more at ease, and regain a sense of calm and confidence.
There is a purpose to your life, and your anxiety is not your fault. Our expertly trained therapists at Crawford Clinics are here to help you address the underlying issues fueling anxiety so you can feel grounded and in control again.
Anxiety is not a mindset issue. Living with anxiety can feel like constantly bracing for danger—each day filled with tension, overthinking, and emotional exhaustion.
Just trying to calm yourself down or ignore it doesn’t work. The Restoring-Self-Cohesion approach, developed by expert clinical psychologist Dr. Crawford, is uniquely designed to help you uncover the unconscious misalignments driving your anxiety. By resolving those inner conflicts, you can reconnect with your true self and experience peace and clarity again.
Anxiety commonly manifests physically, through muscle tension, stomach issues, headaches, rapid heartbeat, and disrupted sleep. While the exact causes of anxiety are not fully understood, a predisposition can run in families and may be triggered by trauma or prolonged stress.
Anxiety is diagnosed more frequently in women and often presents differently in women than in men.
People tend to experience heightened anxiety during major life transitions, after childbirth, or in periods of seasonal change. Managing anxiety can be difficult, especially when it occurs alongside depression, as the two conditions often amplify one another.
Those struggling with anxiety may find it hard to focus, complete tasks, or engage fully in conversations. Some individuals may turn to alcohol, drugs, or food for relief, which can lead to additional health concerns. Anxiety can also increase the risk of panic attacks and other serious emotional distress.
Symptoms
Anxiety is a mental health condition characterized by persistent emotional and physical symptoms, including:
Excessive worry
Restlessness
Muscle tension
Difficulty concentrating
Sleep disturbances
Diagnosing anxiety typically involves a psychiatric evaluation and may include physical tests to rule out other potential causes of the symptoms. To be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, the symptoms must be ongoing, often for six months or more, and significantly interfere with daily life. Every individual’s experience with anxiety is different and requires personalized care, but there are many effective approaches for managing and treating anxiety.
Effective Complementary Ways
of Treating Anxiety
Talk Therapy
A therapeutic approach that involves exploring thoughts, fears, and behaviors with a trained professional to reduce anxiety, build coping skills, and promote emotional resilience.
Medication
Prescribed medications, such as anti-anxiety drugs or certain antidepressants, can help regulate brain chemistry and ease the intensity of anxiety symptoms.
Healthier Lifestyle
Incorporating regular physical activity, a balanced diet, mindfulness practices, and sufficient sleep can significantly reduce anxiety and support overall mental well-being.
Anxiety is a feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness. It might cause you to sweat,
feel restless and tense, and have a rapid heartbeat. It can be a normal reaction to stress. For example, you might feel anxious when faced with a difficult problem at work,
before taking a test, or before making an important decision.
