Anxiety

Have you felt it?

That feeling like you’ve been exercising, but you really haven’t? The racing heart; shallow, quick breath; moving around like you’re on pins and needles; anxious about what happens next. And then there’s that uncomfortable tension that seems to follow you. It’s hard to relax, difficult to sleep, and you find yourself worried that you’re worrying too much. Or maybe you haven’t worried enough. Do other people see how worried you are?

If you’ve felt it, and it persists, you may be struggling with anxiety.

Just about everyone experiences some anxiety; it’s a normal part of our existence. But everyone experiences it – and reacts to it – differently. “Normal” anxiety can be a casual concern about health or family or relationships. The worry is manageable, temporary, and usually resolved within a comfortable time.

Anxiety Therapy

But with an anxiety disorder, worries can feel insurmountable or overwhelming. The physical symptoms of an anxiety disorder can start to interfere with daily activities. If you’re not sleeping well, you might be late to work or school, or perform poorly once you get there. If you’ve got headaches or body aches or a sour, anxious stomach, you may not feel like joining your friends or family in their fun activities. The effects of anxiety on your mind can be just as difficult. You’d like to be happy, but it’s Just. So. Hard.

There are several types of anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Panic Disorder. Each disorder can display with any of a number of symptoms:

  • Excessive worry
  • Difficulty controlling the worry
  • Difficulty falling or staying asleep
  • Tingly or numbs hands
  • Pounding or racing heart
  • Difficulty breathing

Maybe you’re feeling different now. Hopefully, you feel ready to re-start living your pretty good life. And you feel like you don’t want to lose one more day to anxiety, and are ready to make some changes. The therapists at CPA are trained to help you every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

You may benefit from anxiety counseling if worry, panic symptoms, sleep problems, or physical tension are interfering with daily life, work performance, relationships, or overall well-being. Persistent anxiety that feels difficult to control is a common reason people seek professional support.

Counseling can help individuals struggling with generalized anxiety disorder, panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias, health anxiety, and stress-related conditions. Therapists work with clients to reduce symptoms, improve coping skills, and restore emotional balance.

Therapy focuses on identifying triggers, challenging anxious thought patterns, learning relaxation and grounding techniques, and gradually building confidence in managing stressful situations. Treatment plans are personalized based on each client’s symptoms and goals.

Not everyone requires medication. Many individuals benefit from counseling alone, while others may consider psychiatric evaluation as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. Therapists and medical providers collaborate when needed to support the best outcomes.

Clinical Psychology Associates offers anxiety counseling at multiple locations throughout Greater Milwaukee. You can contact the intake team to discuss symptoms, verify insurance coverage, and schedule an initial appointment.
