Anxiety or Fears
Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
"Anxiety is actually a normal part of life and can be helpful at moderate levels, providing motivation to push you to achieve more, or providing a warning to avoid a bad or dangerous situation. However, many people experience such high anxiety levels that they feel distressed, and the anxiety interferes with their functioning. Therapy can help you learn to manage and reduce your anxiety so it no longer distresses you. Paying attention to habits, thoughts, beliefs, and feelings related to anxiety can help people greatly reduce the negative impact of anxiety. I use a holistic approach with psychodynamic underpinnings to help you to identify beliefs, thoughts, feelings, and habits that contribute to your anxiety, and then make changes to reduce and manage your anxiety.
