Anxiety & Panic Attacks
Symptoms You May Be Having
Have you been struggling with anxious thoughts and the physical symptoms that accompany it? Pounding heart, sweaty palms, light-headedness and lurching stomach sensation are common with anxiety. Some people find that they start to avoid certain situations and this can be when it starts to have a detrimental effect on your daily life, your ambitions and sometimes your relationships. If you recognise yourself here, then anxiety counselling can help you.
I am sure you would like to feel calmer, feel more in control and be able to find ways to relax?

Why have counselling for Anxiety?
​
I have lived experience of anxiety so I can empathise fully with how distressing this mental health condition can be. I have many years of experience and expertise in working with clients who suffer from anxiety, panic attacks, and Generalised Anxiety, so you can be reassured you are in good hands. If you would like to start to feel calmer, manage your stress levels and learn how to cope better with life's challenges in the long-term, then you are definitely in the right place!

Things that may cause Anxiety
​
Uni or workplace stress, poor work/life balance or difficulties with relationships
Life changes are inevitable and how well we are equipped to deal with them makes a big difference. The challenges of moving from school to Uni, starting work, setting up home, getting married, having a family, relationship break up, divorce, redundancy, illness and aging can leave us feeling anxious and overwhelmed. . We need psychological flexibility to meet these challenges-but we can learn this!

How can counselling with me help your Anxiety?
​
Counselling gives you the time and the space to explore what might be contributing to your anxiety.
We start with clear explanations of what is happening in your brain and body when you are anxious or having a panic attack. This may sound daunting but it can give you a sense of relief knowing anxiety is your normal stress response that has become a little over active.
We may explore any underlying issues that may be triggering your anxious state as this helps us to devise your own personal coping 'toolkit'.
