Anxiety Therapy

First, welcome! It sounds like you've taken the first step by being curious and doing research. In our initial session, I work to create a low pressure, warm and inviting atmosphere where we will talk through challenges your experiencing and begin to identify goals you want to work towards. After that, we discuss cadence of sessions moving forward and continue on the journey towards self improvement.

Absolutely! Some individuals experience chronic, generalized anxiety, while others may experience situational anxiety where a certain event, object, or place may trigger the emotion. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) where we begin to address your thoughts and behaviors around the situation and learn how to confront anxious thoughts and manage physiological symptoms.

Yes! We all experience anxiety. This is our body's internal alarm system, and we certainly don't want to get rid of it.

Yes. Many adults discover ADHD later in life, especially if symptoms were overlooked during childhood. Adults with ADHD may struggle with organization, focus, procrastination, overwhelm, relationships, or emotion regulation without realizing ADHD may be contributing.

At Carey Counseling Solutions we utilize cognitive behavioral therapy to manage thoughts, behaviors, and emotions around ADHD challenges. Other approaches include mindfulness strategies, behavioral interventions, strengths-based approaches, and practical problem-solving techniques tailored to the individual’s needs.
