Anxiety or Fears
Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in helping people who struggle with anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias, including agoraphobia.
Anxiety:
You’ve always been a worrier and it’s helped you set and achieve your goals. Lately though, it’s interfering with your work and personal life. It feels like you spend all your time worrying about your career or health or relationships, and less time enjoying those things.
Anxiety doesn’t always look like worrying, sometimes it can show up as disturbed sleep, stomach problems, or irritability. Some people procrastinate, others overwork. Anxiety can even come in the form of specific phobias: intense fears of objects or situations that make your heart race and your stomach drop.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ll teach you skills for working with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so you can reclaim your life from anxiety and move towards the nourishing connections you crave.
Panic Attacks & Agoraphobia:
You’re feeling anxious, frustrated, and confused by your experience of sudden rushes of fear accompanied by worry that you’re having a heart attack, dying, going insane, losing control, having a nervous breakdown, or fainting. During these episodes your heart feels like it’s about to burst out of your chest, you feel short of breath, your mouth is dry, you may also be sweating, trembling, shaking, nauseous, hot or cold, dizzy, lightheaded, numb or tingly, and feeling detached from yourself or from reality. These episodes of intense fear are called panic attacks.
Your life may have gotten smaller as you have started avoiding or feeling very anxious in situations because you worry that you might have another panic attack and feel trapped, helpless, or embarrassed. For example, you may fear being in open or enclosed spaces, crowded places, standing in line, or using public transit. Avoiding situations from which escape might be difficult or where help may be unavailable is called agoraphobia.
Panic attacks and agoraphobia are symptoms of panic disorder. Panic disorder traps you in a vicious cycle that begins when you believe the accompanying physical sensations are dangerous. Over time, these beliefs place more attention on physical symptoms which triggers more fear, which perpetuates the panic cycle.
With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ll teach you skills for working with thoughts and behaviors so you can break the panic cycle.
