Individual Therapy for Stress, Anxiety, Depression, and More

Are You Struggling with Everyday Stress or Overwhelming Emotions?

Life can feel overwhelming at times. You might find yourself:

• Feeling anxious or constantly worried about the future

• Struggling to get out of bed due to feelings of sadness or lack of motivation

• Experiencing difficulty concentrating at work or school

• Losing interest in activities you once enjoyed

• Dealing with stress at work or in relationships

• Feeling physically drained or exhausted without any clear reason

These are everyday struggles that many people face, but you don’t have to handle them alone. Individual therapy can help you understand these emotions and work through them in a healthy, productive way.

Common Issues We Address in Therapy

Anxiety Disorders:

• Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD): Persistent worry about everyday situations, difficulty controlling anxiety, and restlessness are common signs. You may experience sleep disturbances, fatigue, or irritability.

• Panic Disorder & Agoraphobia: Sudden panic attacks, fear of being in situations where escape is difficult, and avoidance of crowded or open spaces are symptoms of agoraphobia.

• Social Anxiety: Fear of being judged or embarrassed in social settings, avoiding social interactions, and feeling intense anxiety before or during events.

Depression:

• Major Depressive Disorder: This includes prolonged sadness, lack of interest in activities you once enjoyed, fatigue, changes in sleep and appetite, and feelings of worthlessness or guilt.

• Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Depression that occurs during certain seasons, usually in winter, affecting mood, sleep, and energy levels.

• Dysthymia (Persistent Depressive Disorder): A low mood that persists for years, affecting daily functioning but not always as severely as major depression.

Eating Disorders:

• Anorexia Nervosa: Extreme fear of weight gain, distorted body image, and restriction of food intake. Individuals may excessively exercise or avoid food despite being underweight.

• Bulimia Nervosa: Binge eating followed by behaviors like vomiting, using laxatives, or excessive exercise to prevent weight gain.

• Binge Eating Disorder: Episodes of consuming large amounts of food in a short period, accompanied by feelings of guilt or lack of control.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD):

• OCD: Repetitive thoughts or obsessions that lead to compulsive behaviors, such as checking, cleaning, or counting excessively. These rituals can be exhausting and interfere with daily life, but therapy can help you regain control.
