Anxiety & Stress

Did you know that most people wait years before seeking specialized treatment for behavioral health problems? This is especially true of those struggling with anxiety.

  • Do your emotions feel like puzzle pieces that just don’t quite fit together? 
  • Do you repeat painful patterns in your life?
  • Do you feel more connected to or disconnected from others because of social media?

Dr. Sherwin teaches you new skills and recommends resources to help you find more positive ways to manage the many feelings you may experience at one time or another including:

WorryGuilt
FrustrationAnger
FearEmbarrassment
ShameHumiliation
VictimizationBullying
Loneliness, isolationHurt, sadness
Shyness, social anxietyImpulsiveness
PerfectionismGrief, loss, pain

Many of these feelings are exacerbated by the constant demands of changing social media platforms.

  • Do you feel pressured to ‘stay in touch’ 24/7 both personally and at work?
  • How do you set limits with people on your time and availability?
  • Do you sleep well at night or does technology now run your life?

People often come to counseling to learn new ways to manage their behaviors in order to improve the way they feel.  Do you know how to exchange negative emotions for positive ones?  It all begins with learning to be happy!
