Freedom From Anxiety
Are you stuck in a cycle of relentless mental chatter, overthinking and emotional overwhelm? Is tension in your chest, shoulders and hips your “normal”? It may feel easier to avoid work, events or relationships than to endure the discomfort required to participate. Or you might resonate with the reference to "high functioning anxiety” because you look okay on the surface while you are working overtime to keep it all together.
When anxiety starts to interfere with your quality of life, it may be time to reach out for some support. At Core Psychology Calgary, our psychologists are dedicated to helping you regain your confidence and find relief from anxiety.
