Anxiety & Perfectionism
How does anxiety show up for you? For some people, it looks like overthinking, perfectionism, or decision fatigue. For others, it can show up in the body with symptoms such as tension, racing heart, restlessness, or even exhaustion. You might find yourself worrying about work, relationships, how others perceive you, or uncertainty about the future. In today’s messy and unpredictable world, it can be easy to feel so dysregulated that even simple daily tasks become overwhelming.
In therapy, we’ll focus on practical strategies to help you manage emotions, regulate stress, and navigate daily responsibilities. This might look like learning tools for grounding, building routines, or distinguishing between rational and irrational thoughts. At the same time, we’ll do the deeper work of exploring where your anxiety comes from, whether that’s past experiences, cultural messages, trauma, or longstanding patterns that shape how you respond to stress.
Whether you’re dealing with panic attacks, negative self-talk, or the stress of juggling multiple roles, you’re not alone.
Therapy is a place to practice coping skills, understand your patterns, and create space for calm and clarity, even in the midst of life’s challenges.
