What is Anxiety Counselling?

Everyone knows the feeling. For some, it starts with a tightness in their chest. For others, a fixation on a certain idea or event. It can be about a very real scenario. Other times, it is about something that might seem a little silly. For some, it is something they learn to live with. For others, it impacts their lives and the decisions that they make. Unfortunately, it is a natural part of life. Nearly a quarter of all individuals in North America suffer from an anxiety-related condition each year! Even more troubling is the fact that only around 40% of people who struggle with it seek professional help and treatment. That is where anxiety counselling comes in.

There are several different forms that this condition can take. Generalized Anxiety is a pervasive, persistent condition without a specific focus. Panic Anxiety comes in the form of panic attacks. Social Anxiety is comes when hanging out in large settings or new social situations. It can also takes the form of Specific Phobias, a particular thing that causes what might seem to be an “overreaction” by friends and family. No matter how your anxiety presents itself, the qualified therapists at Evergreen Counselling Group are here to help!
