Anxiety Counselling in Metro Vancouver and Online Across BC and Canada
Anxiety comes in many forms, such as social anxiety, generalized anxiety, panic, or even phobias. People who experience Social Anxiety often feel negatively judged by others, which can lead to feeling inferior, inadequate, and embarrassed. It may also be difficult for those with social anxiety to be in public or around others resulting in avoidance of social situations.
Those who struggle with Generalized Anxiety have ongoing worry and tension, and tend to see worries and problems in every situation. Irritability, muscle tension, and trouble concentrating are additional symptoms of generalized anxiety.
Panic attacks are frequently experienced as intense worry or fear within minutes that might involve choking sensations, trouble breathing, sweating, and rapid heartbeat. People who experience panic typically have recurrent worries about having another panic attack and avoid situations that they think might trigger another.
Counselling treatment at Wellspring for anxiety includes an integrative mix of Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy, EMDR Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) for helping clients to understand, soothe, and modify the patterns of an overactive nervous system often termed as ‘anxiety.’
