It is normal to experience anxiety in day to day life. Trying something for the first time, meeting someone new, writing exams, having a job interview, or doing a presentation typically create some degree of anxiety and this is normal. When, however, that nervousness or worry starts to impair a person's ability to sleep, eat, leave the house, go to school, or interact socially, help may be needed. I help my clients learn how to manage both the cognitive (recurring thoughts, catastrophizing, worries) and physiological (tension, panic, stomach aches) aspects of anxiety.
