Starting Anxiety & depression counseling

What is Anxiety & depression counseling?

Anxiety & depression counseling from our therapists at Thriveworks in Charlotte, NC can help people better understand and manage their symptoms. If you are struggling with regular anxious and/or depressive thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety or depressive disorder, you should seek professional help. The therapists at Thriveworks can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your anxiety and/or depression.

How does Anxiety & depression counseling work?

Anxiety & depression counseling from our therapists in Charlotte involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Your therapist will then work with you to determine where your anxiety and/or depression might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.

Is Anxiety & depression counseling conducted in person or online?

Anxiety & depression counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Anxiety & depression counseling last?

Anxiety & depression counseling from Thriveworks Charlotte therapists can last for a few weeks, months ,or longer, dependent on the severity of one's anxiety as well as their needs and preferences.

Need more help deciding?

You’re at work and thinking of everything that has to be done, and you’re paralyzed. What I can’t get through it all? What if I’m too slow? What if I don’t do a good job and my boss doesn’t like it? What if I lose my job? What if I’m actually incapable of working contently like everyone else around me seems to be able to do, and I’m simply doomed and forevermore unworthy of hire? …

Anxiety disorders — worry and fear over uncertain events and uncertain outcomes — are quite common. What, unfortunately, is also common is people not seeking help. Instead, they go on for months and months without ever addressing the overwhelmingly negative chatter that crowds their minds.

Well, we’re here to get you help right now. You don’t have to wait weeks or even days to find someone to talk to, delaying your own peace of mind. Call us today at 980-581-3061 and we can schedule you an appointment within 24 hours with one of our counselors.

“How Do I Know if I Have an Anxiety Disorder?”

While we don’t recommend self-diagnosis, we will say that if constant, irrational fear, worry or stress is getting in the way of your personal and/or professional life, it’s time you consider speaking with a therapist who has helped many others with similar issues find increased mental clarity, focus and inner calm.

If you’re suffering from an anxiety disorder, you might experience:

  • Unexplained nervousness
  • Sweating hands
  • Trembling
  • Nausea
  • Heart palpitations
  • Feelings of panic or fear
  • Overall uneasiness
  • Shortness of breath
  • Dizziness
  • Difficulty becoming calm
  • Insomnia
  • Muscle tension

When you come in for your first session, your therapist will immediately set upon the task of giving you tools to start managing your worries while getting to know you — all in judgment-free environment designed to put you at ease.

If you think you might be suffering from anxiety, don’t let this idea frighten you. Anxiety is highly treatable, and by looking into counseling, you’ve made a step in the right direction of finding relief.

You can change. You can thrive. We can help.

Anxiety Disorders Take Many Forms

There are several types of anxiety disorders, and they can each vary in severity between person to person, or even from one day to the next for the same individual.

Types of anxiety disorders include:

  • Social anxiety
  • Phobias
  • Panic disorder
  • School phobia (particularly in children)
  • Post-traumatic stress disorder
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder
  • Agoraphobia (fear of specific places or situations)
  • Separation Anxiety
  • Generalized anxiety disorder

There’s Hope — Call Us Today

There’s no reason to let fear continue to control your life. Who has time for that? Every moment counts — why not spend each trying to improve your life?

Our clinicians are leaders in the industry — many of which have been featured in media outlets such as CNN, The Boston Globe, Chicago Tribune, Prevention, Counseling Today and more — and they’re entire goal is to use their expertise to help you live better. We only hire the best, most caring therapists we can find. And you can meet with one them within the next 24 hours and begin to live your new life.

Call Thriveworks Charlotte Anxiety Therapy today at 980-581-3061 and find relief from fear and worry.

I have been seeing Terryn Maher for a couple of months now and she is awesome!! Very knowledgeable, attentive, thorough, thoughtful, caring, etc. I could go on for awhile. I’ve been in counseling with another therapist for about 14 years but I already feel like I’m getting so much more from working with Terryn. Thriveworks on a whole has been great to work with as well. They are easy to work with and schedule appointments with. I was nervous about working with a company over directly with just the therapist but it has actually worked out well. I highly recommend them!

I've worked with Mrs. Matson for close to a year now and I can say with certainty that she's a great counselor to go to for help with emotional regulation and understanding, grief management, and processing trauma in healthy and beneficial ways. Her use of meditation techniques to get to the root of my emotions and habits have helped me understand so much about myself and why I operate the way I do. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone just starting out looking for a good counselor, or anyone looking for a friendly empathetic professional who listens well and draws from a wealth of information to provide really quality services.

I have seen Dr. Daniel Stillwell for a year for individual and couples counseling and I trust him immensely. He is a skilled, authentic, and highly competent professional. I’ve also referred him to others and they described the same. Thriveworks staff have been very helpful with insurance and appointments.

Adriana Blanco is wonderful. I never felt any judgement from her during our sessions. She is compassionate, firm and extremely knowledgeable. I could not see myself opening up as much with another counselor, thank you for putting her in my path.
