Therapy for anxious college students.
You’re juggling your classes, your clubs, your job, your internship applications, and you barely have time to just stop and think. When you do - if you do - you feel this pressure to do more. Because if you’re not doing as much as possible, maybe it means you’re failing, and maybe it means you’re not proving yourself and proving your worth to others.
College anxiety, overwhelm, and perfectionism is super common, but that doesn’t mean you should accept huge amounts of stress as your new normal.
You want to do so well in college. But every time you get a B instead of an A; every time a professor corrects you in class, or you get the answer wrong, it feels like a sign that you shouldn’t be there.
Your brain, working on overdrive, starts to hyper focus on your perceived failures.
And while a fear of failure can be motivating, and perfectionism can fuel you, those two forces are unsustainably draining on your mental health.
That’s where anxiety counseling comes in!
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety helps you feel less stress about your future.
Anxiety therapy isn’t just about learning quick tips for fast tools to lower your stress levels. It’s about recognizing what’s going on in your brain and body, and transforming the patterns of overwhelm and exhaustion that keep getting in your way.
The Process:
-
1.
We build relaxation skills so you learn how to manage the stress.
-
2.
We dig in to what’s going on underneath the surface.
-
3.
We take a step back to explore what thoughts are getting in your way.
-
4.
And then, working together, we figure out the plan to help you move forward.
