Anxiety therapists in Arvika, Sweden SE

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is characterized by excessive and inappropriate worrying that is persistent and not restricted to particular circumstances. Psychodynamic therapy emphasizes free association, unconscious thoughts that underlie the physical sensations .  

Anxiety is difficult to live with, particularly when it feels out of control. When working with anxiety, I use my psychology background to help you understand what might be going on in your body. Part of our work might be some psycho-education and developing some skills to manage. But ultimately we would work to understand what is feeding your anxiety, which may stem back much further than realised - for example, how your caregivers taught (or didn't teach) you how to manage and regulate your emotions. Or ways of thinking or feeling that feel stuck in a pattern you can't get out of. Or traumatic events that impacted your nervous system. We would use our time to explore your history and your present, and understand it together.
