Don't waste one more day - anxiety counseling At Affordable Counseling Center can help
We help you identify solutions to relieve stress and anxiety that are specific to your personal situation.
To begin with, we acknowledge that anxious feelings develop from the way that you think. Anxious feelings are almost always accompanied by anxious thoughts (whether you recognize them or not), many of which aren’t based in reality or facts actually present in your situation.
Anxiety in Tampa FL, Brandon FL, Riverview FL, Valrico FL, Seffner FL, and Hyde Park FL, often comes with countless “what if?” questions. Questions that have no answers. And always picturing the worst-case scenarios. We help you change the way you relate to those thoughts in order to change the way you feel.
At Affordable Counseling Center in Tampa FL, Brandon FL, Riverview FL, Valrico FL, Seffner FL, and Hyde Park FL, we mostly rely on a combination of Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), the gold standards for treating anxiety (and depression) with the highest success rates. Both ACT and CBT can be effective short-term approaches, so we only keep you in therapy while you're having symptoms, not for years to come.
Affordable Counseling Center in Tampa FL, Brandon FL, Riverview FL, Valrico FL, Seffner FL, and Hyde Park FL, find that working mindfulness into our approach to anxiety helps patients begin to understand their thoughts and feelings. Sometimes just becoming aware of the anxious thoughts can provide relief.
We teach you to notice your thoughts and observe them as a non-judgmental spectator. And to recognize that thoughts are just thoughts. Many are surprised to discover their mind has been telling them lies for years! We also help you learn to recognize those lies, and make decisions by choice rather than emotion.
When we finish your anxiety counseling at Affordable Counseling Center in Tampa FL, Brandon FL, Riverview FL, Valrico FL, Seffner FL, and Hyde Park FL, our goal is for you to leave feeling more prepared, and having a stronger sense of self-confidence in your ability to tackle all of life's challenges.
