Understanding Anxiety & Identifying Your Needs
What Is Anxiety?
Anxiety is a natural response to stress, but when it becomes constant or overwhelming, it can take over your life. It’s more than just worry—it’s the tension in your chest, the restless nights, and the persistent voice that says, “What if something goes wrong?” Bourne Counseling helps you differentiate between everyday stress and the deeper patterns of anxiety that require support.

- Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): A highly effective, evidence-based method that gently supports you in gradually facing fears and avoided situations, building confidence step by step and reducing anxious responses.
- Mindfulness & Acceptance Strategies: Techniques to reduce stress, help you stay grounded in the present moment, and foster a non-judgmental awareness of your thoughts and feelings, reducing their power over you.
