Therapy for Anxiety
If your mind constantly jumps to the worst-case scenario — even when there's no clear reason to worry — you may be experiencing generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).
It's more than everyday stress: it's persistent, hard-to-control worry about things like money, health, family, or work that can make even getting through the day feel overwhelming.
Many people with GAD know their anxiety is out of proportion to the situation, but still can't seem to stop the cycle. That disconnect — recognizing the worry isn't rational, yet feeling powerless to turn it off — is often one of the most exhausting parts of living with GAD.
GAD is common. It affects millions of adults in the U.S. each year, and women are diagnosed at roughly twice the rate of men. It can develop gradually, at any point in life, and tends to stem from a mix of biological factors, family history, and life experience — not something anyone chooses or causes themselves.
While GAD describes generalized, everyday worry, anxiety often shows up in more specific ways — tied to particular situations, fears, or triggers. Whatever form your anxiety takes, our therapists are experienced in treating it, and can help you build coping strategies and feel more in control of your day-to-day life.
