Understanding Anxiety and How It Affects You
Anxiety can feel overwhelming and confusing. It doesn’t just live in your thoughts—it affects your body, behaviors, and relationships. At BrainBody Wellness Counseling, we address all three components of anxiety:

  1. Distorted Thoughts: Catastrophizing, overthinking, or obsessing about worst-case scenarios.

  2. Physical Activation: Rapid heart rate, tension, shortness of breath, or a racing mind.

  3. Behavioral Avoidance: Avoiding situations, people, or triggers that increase anxiety.

By treating the whole person—mind, body, and behavior—we help you regain confidence, calm, and control.
