FEELING OVERWHELMED? STRUGGLING WITH ANXIETY?

If you're experiencing anxiety, the first step is to get out of your head and not to be alone with it. Sharing it is the beginning of healing and growth. 

The focus is on building a safe and trusting environment where you will have the support to work on your fears: 

• fears of failure
• fears of making mistakes
• fears of facing next steps in your career 
• fears of asking for what you need
• fears of not being perfect
• fears of not pleasing your family
• fears of stepping outside your comfort zone
• even fears of success!

And... sometimes, it seems like anxiety or panic just appears out of nowhere.

Here at Psych Options, we will work with you to create opportunities to explore your fears and anxiety and help you discover new parts of yourself, make hard decisions, take positive risks and open yourself up to new experiences.  

What are the benefits of choosing therapy for anxiety?

Though friends, family, and other members of your community may provide invaluable support, it can often be difficult to become emotionally vulnerable and honest about your fears with them. Therapy not only gives you the chance to discuss how anxiety is affecting you on a day-to-day basis, it also offers a non-judgmental, new perspective that can help you locate the source of your worry.

You’ll be invited to open up and cover such topics as your history, experience with therapeutic treatments, and your daily expriences with anxiety. As Ann will get to know you better, together you will begin to explore new ways of addressing what may be distorted thinking and unhelpful responses to your life challenges.

The truth is that all of us experience some degree of anxiety—and that is not a bad thing! The function of anxiety is to keep us alert and protect us from threats. Excessive anxiety, however, can be highly disruptive and difficult to overcome. At Psych Options NYC, we have helped countless clients benefit from therapy and, when needed, medication management, leading them to a life that feels more joyful. It’s possible to center yourself and become more powerful in your life, regardless of how long your anxiety has been in the driver’s seat.
