Therapy for Anxiety

At Firefly Counseling and Wellness, we know how challenging it can be to live with anxiety. The good news? Whether you, your child or teen are struggling, anxiety is highly treatable, and we’re here to help!

 

Parenting a child with anxiety is challenging! Anxiety doesn’t always look like what we imagine. Your child or teen might be well behaved at school, sports or activities but be demanding at home. You might feel like you are walking on eggshells, fearing your child will have a big reaction at any moment. Trying to avoid the things that trigger your child only makes their anxiety worse. It’s a vicious cycle and one that is exhausting for parents.

If you have anxiety, you are probably trying to make it go away by avoiding the things that make you feel anxious. Unfortunately, this approach only increases anxiety.

 

And besides avoiding certain events or triggers you might feel as if it’s almost impossible to relax and constantly feel on edge.

At Firefly Counseling and Wellness, we also treat chronic pain and other mind-body or neuroplastic conditions. Like anxiety, pain is a danger signal from the brain, and we can help you address it. Sometimes pain lets you know there is a structural problem, like a sprained ankle, cut or burn. Other times, pain lets you know you need to take a break from working too much or are approaching your life with fear, perfectionism or negativity. Unresolved stress or trauma can also cause pain and other physical symptoms.

 

Living with chronic pain is debilitating but just like anxiety, chronic pain is very treatable!
