Talk to a Mental Health Professional About Your Anxiety at Thriveworks in Concord, CA

Meet with a local Thriveworks provider -- we accept insurance & provide personalized, high-quality care.

 

Do you remember the last time you felt anxious? If so, try to picture the scenario that stirred up these feelings. Maybe you were required to speak at a public event. Maybe you were meeting new people for the first time or dreading a hypothetical scenario or situation. Whatever made you feel anxious, it likely wasn’t the first time you felt that way. Occasional anxiety is a fact of life and something that we all cope with and manage in different ways. 

But with anxiety comes the possibility that it manifests into a persistent issue, one that starts to detract from the experiences, moments, and relationships that define our lives. When anxiety gets in the way of simply living, then it might be a good idea to consider whether opening up to a mental health professional could benefit you. 

If you decide to connect with a mental health professional at Thriveworks in Concord, CA, you’ll be getting professional care and assistance from a licensed provider. Our team has experience with treating anxiety when it becomes an obstacle to your wellbeing. If you’re interested in the ways that talking with one of our providers can benefit you, we encourage you to reach out to us. 

How Can a Counselor Help With My Anxiety? 

Your therapy experience will be influenced by your mental health needs, and if you are experiencing anxiety, your treatment plan will be designed to help you cope and mitigate the effects of anxiety on your mental wellbeing. Though anxiety is a disorder that affects every person differently, some common signs and symptoms of anxiety include: 

  • Difficulty sleeping 
  • Irrational fears or fixation on imaginary situations 
  • Racing thoughts 
  • Fatigue 
  • Nausea
  • Chronic health conditions like IBS, acid reflux, or an autoimmune disorder

These are just a few of the many ways that a mental health disorder like anxiety can manifest, so it’s important not to be worried if you aren’t seeing your symptoms or problems being listed. And with that in mind, the only people qualified to diagnose or treat mental health conditions like anxiety are licensed providers, like our team at Thriveworks in Concord, CA.

Our providers help everyday people like you experience relief and newfound enjoyment from being able to better cope with and understand their anxiety. For some, connecting with one of our psychologists (also referred to as a therapist or counselor) is most beneficial. These types of mental health professionals assist clients through: 

  • Helping family members or partners understand their loved one’s anxiety through relationship therapy or family counseling 
  • Using talk therapy or behavioral therapy to promote self-awareness 
  • Developing coping mechanisms to use in real life, anxiety-inducing situations 

Using therapy as the primary care method works well for many, but for others with more persistent or severe cases of anxiety, talking with and receiving treatment from a psychiatrist is more helpful. A unique provider type, psychiatrists specialize in mood and behavioral disorders. Psychiatrists are set apart by their medicinal background, being both a licensed medical doctor and therapist simultaneously. These providers help clients with different types of anxiety by being able to: 

  • Prescribe helpful medication that assists clients in managing the disruptive, damaging symptoms of anxiety 
  • Use a combination of prescription medications and therapy sessions to treat clients, as needed 

Regardless of the mental health professional you’re matched with, taking proactive steps towards prioritizing your mental health can give you a big boost. Just think about it: taking the time to balance out our mental health needs allows us to be more present during the moments and situations that define our lives and ourselves.
