Therapists and Counselors for Anxiety at South Shore Counseling

Every person experiences anxiety in a different way. For some, anxiety is very mental, where a person worries about many things. For others, it’s physical, with shaking, stomach issues, sweating, and other symptoms. For some, it’s emotional, with feeling overwhelmed, stressed, even crying. Most people have some combination of all three.

These symptoms all tell a picture of you. We often use specific diagnostic terms to describe your symptoms, such as:

  • Generalized Anxiety Disorder
  • Social Anxiety Disorder
  • Panic Disorder
  • Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
  • Specific Phobias

We may also stay away from diagnosing you at all, as each individual’s experience is different. We know that you’re not the same as everyone else, and we make sure to treat you like the unique person that you are.

What matters most is that, collaboratively, we find a path to helping you address your anxiety and find solutions to help you better manage your mental health both now and in the future.
