Anxiety & Depression

Anxiety & Depression

If you feel like something is off with you and you don’t know why maybe anxiety or depression are getting to you.  Either way we have specific Christian counseling approaches we can help you with.  It doesn’t matter if you know which one it is that’s the culprit.  Sometimes it’s both. We’re here to help you figure it out.

Anxiety

Heightened anxiety can make us miserable!  It disrupts our sleep, makes it hard to eat, and makes us feel paranoid.  When we’re struggling with this we can’t shake those unwanted thoughts and often feel like someone has hijacked our bodies.  It’s just plain awful!

We can teach you techniques to manage your thoughts, bring peace back to your life, and find relaxation again. We do this by working through a variety of proven methods.  These strategies work on many of the symptoms of anxiety.

Common Symptoms Include:

  • Anxious thoughts
  • Uncontrolled fears
  • Intense physical reactions (stomach pain, racing heartbeat, excessive sweating)
  • Perfectionistic thoughts
  • Panic Attacks
  • Social Avoidance/Panic

Depression

Other times we are overcome with more than just sadness.  When depression occurs it often takes a while for us to figure it out.

Things that point us toward thinking we have depression include:

  • Excessive sleeping
  • Apathy or no motivation
  • Sadness
  • Negative thinking
  • Hopelessness
  • Suicidal thinking
  • Social isolation

Sometimes specific struggles we have can create anxiety and depression in our lives. We don’t always get to control these things happening to us, but they can also create the anxiety and depression.
