Anxiety Counselling

Anxiety is used to describe feelings of worry, fear and unease. Typically, it incorporates both the emotional and physical sensations we experience when worried or nervous.

We will all experience feelings of anxiety, and it’s very common to feel tense or unsure about a potentially stressful situation, such as an exam, starting a new job, or moving home.

However, some of us will be affected more than others. Despite being a normal experience, if these feelings are very strong or are lasting a long time, they can be overwhelming and cause further stress and anxiety, affecting how we function on a day-to-day basis.

Anxiety Symptoms

While feeling anxious is a natural response, suffering from anxiety long-term can be very intense. Anxiety will affect people differently, however, there are common symptoms:

  • Rapid and/or irregular heartbeat

  • Fast breathing

  • Sweating

  • Nausea

  • Dizziness

  • Trouble sleeping

  • Feeling irritable

  • Lack of concentration

  • Panic attacks

When is the right time to seek help?

Anxiety is a problem that can get worse if the stressors continue to build up. It’s important to know that you can get support and, as lonely as you feel, people care and are there to help.

Anxiety counselling gives you the opportunity to talk to people who understand you and will take the time to support you through these feeling that can be overwhelming.

What our clients say.

” Rainer was a great help in listening to what I had to say, and then, gradually, his comments and prompts guided me to a fair amount of self reflection which helped me to realise that there are always other angles and perspectives to our ‘problems’, and that it was within me, myself, to reflect on and identify and choose to adjust my approach to things and choose ‘positive’ options rather than negative ones that may have become bad habits, which we have probably developed from a ‘tunnelled vision’ perspective. All of this has helped me to get less anxious and stressed with ‘life situations’ and to manage them in a more positive way. “

” I found doing Zoom the best therapy I have had. Think as it was in my own home I could be really comfortable and relax. I think this service via video link would be so beneficial to so many people who may not want to get out of their home or afraid to go to another unknown place. Really I feel it would be a great service after lockdown. I have had several lots of therapy over the years, but this definitely worked the best. Rainer is a really easy person to talk to. Zoom sessions made me much more relaxed and I talked much more freely. Thank you for your time listening to me. ”

” The recent death of my sister in America affected me greatly. I was unable to visit her due to covid and she passed on. I was recommended to Rainer and due to covid and my fibromyalgia and sadness I would not face to go out the house. First I could not master to sign onto Zoom straight away. Rainer telephoned me and guided me. I was very apprehensive at first. Rainer put me at ease and was easy to talk to. Gradually I could unburden my anxiety and my deep sadness which I carried inside me. Rainer helped me to come back to reality. Rainer is a kind and gentle person and I felt comfortable to talk to him. ”
