Feeling anxious from time to time is just normal. But when you can't seem to shake your concerns and your daily life is a constant state of worry and fear, then anxiety has taken an unhealthy grip on your life. In addition to emotional symptoms like always anticipating the worst, feeling restless all the time or having a constant nagging concern, anxiety can also have a lot of physical symptoms including a pounding heart, sweaty palms, feeling sick in your stomach, headaches and feeling tired.

Anxiety is our body's ancient and innate response to stressful situations such as being attacked by an aggressive animal or person. While we can't stop anxiety entirely because it is a natural response, we can take back the control of our lives so that anxiety does not get in the way of daily functioning.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a widely used approach for understanding and managing anxiety. CBT focuses on how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact. Many people find that the way they interpret situations can influence how anxious they feel.

Through online therapy, you can learn to recognize patterns of negative or unhelpful thinking and gradually develop more balanced ways of responding. CBT also helps you become more aware of the physical sensations and emotions that often accompany anxiety.

Together with your therapist, you may practice practical coping strategies and gradually approach situations that trigger anxiety in a structured and supportive way. This step-by-step approach can help many people build confidence and feel more comfortable facing situations that previously felt overwhelming.

"Vanessa has been a lovely therapist. She has helped me tremendously with dealing with life changes and with feeling more confident. I've been feeling a lot happier recently with some of the coping strategies and new thought patterns we have worked on together, and I highly recommend her as a therapist!"

"This is my first experience of any therapy and I'm been very happy so far. It's only been a month, but the combination of weekly sessions and worksheets to work through have been very helpful. I'm finding the writing process very cathartic. Regarding the sessions, I didn't require anything groundbreaking, I just needed a neutral voice who could help me to better understand my own hypothesis of what I was facing. It has been everything I required, and I've been very pleasantly surprised at how quickly it has had a positive effect on my life."

"When I first signed up, I selected all the things I needed help with, and for some reason I got matched with someone unqualified - she stated she cant "help with several of my *issues*". I decided to switch and give the program another chance even though that rubbed me the wrong way, and I'm glad it was just her. My therapist is sweet, and she understands the uniqueness of the things I talk to her about, and she tells me what's important in situations - not just taking my side. It's awesome and it's refreshing for both my partner and I to know I have someone who will tell me when I'm valid and when even the things I find difficult are valid as well."
