Overcoming Anxiety: Simple Tools That Actually Help

Feeling Anxious? You’re Not Alone – And You Don’t Have to Stay Stuck

Anxiety can feel like a constant hum in the background—or a wave that crashes in when you least expect it. It might show up as racing thoughts, overthinking, tightness in your chest, trouble sleeping, or needing everything to be “just right” to feel okay.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many people are searching for ways to overcome anxiety and finally feel some relief.

The good news? You don’t have to stay stuck. There are effective, supportive ways to begin managing anxiety—and therapy can be a powerful place to start.

Anxiety is your body’s way of trying to protect you. But sometimes, it goes into overdrive. In therapy for anxiety, we work together to better understand your triggers, develop tools to calm your nervous system, and shift the way you relate to anxious thoughts.

Here are a few helpful starting points:

• Understand your patterns: Notice what tends to trigger your anxiety. Journaling or simply pausing to reflect can help bring clarity.

• Practice grounding techniques: Deep breathing, body scans, or even naming five things you see around you can help calm anxiety in the moment.

• Challenge anxious thoughts: Ask yourself, “Is this thought true?” or “Is there another way to look at this?”

• Build moments of calm: Whether it's a walk outside, quiet music, or a cozy routine, find ways to slow down and create pockets of peace.

• Get support: You don’t have to do this alone. Reaching out is a courageous step toward healing.
