Anxiety is your internal alarm system when there’s a perceived threat. Anxiety tells you to fight, flight, or freeze. But what if those “threats” aren’t accurate? What if your fears are being exaggerated by your thoughts

It’s not always events themselves that trigger stress and anxiety, but rather how you perceive those situations. 

Anxiety, itself, may not be the issue. Anxiety becomes a problem when your perceptions of threats are inaccurate, but you still respond as if the danger is real. You avoid, self-sabotage, distract with substances, fight with loved ones, obsess over control, etc.

You have a picture of how you want your life to be, but it doesn’t match up with your reality.

Anxiety gets in the way of you having the health, the confidence, the career, the meaningful relationships, the freedom, and the true happiness that you want. You don’t step into your power because you’re afraid to take action. You see your goals as too big or just out of reach. You don’t believe you’re worthy of having the life you desire, so you accept your current status because it’s “comfortable”.

Your thoughts leave you feeling lost and overwhelmed, unsure of what to do. But guess what, with the right guidance, you are capable of drastically changing your mindset and ultimately your life.

Through a Cognitive Behavioral Model, I empower you to learn concrete skills and tools to help manage your worries and take control of your behaviors.

What is Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)?

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a common mental health issue marked by ongoing and intense worry about different areas of life. This persistent anxiety can disrupt everyday activities and cause considerable distress. Individuals with GAD may face symptoms like restlessness, fatigue, trouble focusing, muscle tension, and sleep problems.

GAD VS OCD

What is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterized by persistent, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) performed to alleviate the anxiety caused by these thoughts. People with OCD often feel trapped in a cycle where their distressing thoughts lead them to engage in compulsive rituals, which only temporarily relieve their anxiety and reinforce the cycle.

Obsessions might include fears of contamination, harming others, or doubts about safety, while compulsions could involve excessive washing, checking, or mental counting. This condition can significantly impact daily life, making it difficult to focus, maintain relationships, or engage in regular activities.

Do anxiety and OCD go together?

While GAD is distinct from OCD, both disorders share anxiety as a central feature. Individuals with OCD experience specific, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that lead to repetitive behaviors (compulsion) and fears around imagined possibilities). In contrast, GAD involves more generalized and diffuse worry around real life situations without the specific obsessions and compulsions seen in OCD.

If you’re struggling with GAD or OCD and looking for support, working with an OCD and anxiety therapist can be beneficial. Whether through in-person sessions or online therapy, a specialized therapist can help address both generalized anxiety and OCD symptoms. Finding a therapist for OCD and anxiety near you can provide targeted treatment. For the best results, seek out a therapist who offers OCD and anxiety counseling and understands the nuances of both conditions.

What to expect in an online ocd and anxiety counseling session…

During an online OCD and anxiety counseling session, the emphasis is on tackling your specific challenges in a structured and supportive setting. Sessions usually start with an initial assessment to discuss your current symptoms, history, and particular concerns, enabling the therapist to customize the approach to fit your needs. From there, you’ll collaborate to establish therapy goals, such as reducing anxiety, managing OCD symptoms, or developing effective coping strategies. Depending on your needs, various therapeutic methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) may be employed to address thought patterns and behaviors. You’ll also participate in skill-building exercises aimed at symptom management, which might involve challenging irrational thoughts, practicing exposure tasks, or utilizing relaxation techniques. Between sessions, you can expect homework assignments designed to reinforce what you’ve learned and help you apply these tools in real-life situations. Throughout the session, the therapist offers continuous support and feedback, modifying your treatment plan as needed. Each session typically wraps up with a summary of your progress and a plan for the next meeting, paving the way for ongoing growth and addressing any challenges that arise.

Together, we can:

  • Examine and challenge worrying thinking

  • Learn coping skills to manage symptoms

  • Build your tolerance to anxiety and stress

  • Calm your monkey mind through mindfulness techniques

  • Have a better relationship with food and your body

  • Set boundaries and learn assertive communication strategies

  • Let go of perfectionism & self-sabotage

  • Become comfortable with vulnerability and feeling your feelings

  • Reframe negative judgmental self-talk

  • Change unhelpful thinking patterns

  • Change unhelpful thinking patterns

  • Learn to embrace and accept uncertainty

You do not have to be a slave to your anxiety!
