I Feel Anxious.

It’s understandable to feel a sense of nervousness when you have stressful situations going on in your life. But sometimes that nervousness can turn into anxiety, and get in the way of your relationships, your work, and your ability to live a peaceful and confident life. It can even get to the point where it is hard for you to leave your home, you have frequent thoughts of expecting the worst to happen, and it stops you from doing normal activities you used to do with ease.

You might catch yourself thinking:

  • “I’m horrible at my job.”

  • “I feel like I’m going to be fired at any moment.”

  • “Everyone is going to realize I’m stupid.”

  • “Are they laughing at me? They must not like me.”

At Milord Therapy & Consulting Services LLC, I can help by teaching you how to first identify the thoughts that drive your anxious feelings. Once we work together to figure out these thoughts, we will then work on how your anxious feelings cause specific behaviors. We then work on applying healthy skills to help you overcome the anxiety. This process has helped many people.

 How? It is a therapy technique called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT helps you understand the idea that thoughts and feelings influence your behavior. Research shows that CBT can lead to a huge improvement in your ability to find calm and live a life where you are thriving again.

I also use a variety of different therapy techniques, including CBT. During therapy sessions, we will work, as a team, on a 5 step plan to help you find your peace and confidence again:

  1. Building trust and rapport in therapy.

  2. Hearing you out, while you tell me your story.

  3. Identifying the strengths you already have.

  4. Finding and using tools to help you decrease the anxiety.

  5. Build your resilience and transition out of therapy – making sure you have all the tools you need to have a solid handle on the demands of your life that bring you feelings of anxiety.

These 5 steps will help you beyond the ending of therapy.

I’m glad you decided to take this step for yourself. Although feelings of anxiety and nervousness can get in the way of your life, things can start getting better today. Reach out to me and get started now.
