Treating Anxiety and Depression Through Therapy

Feeling anxious and depressed can be a major challenge, especially now with Covid-19 & civil unrest across the U.S. If it feels as if fear, nervousness and sadness are taking over your life, anxiety and depression therapy can be an extremely effective way to counteract these feelings.

Left untreated, anxiety and depression will continue to manifest themselves in physical symptoms and dysfunctional thought processes.

Care Clinics Inc. has many years in treating anxiety and depression therapy. We will create a customized psychotherapy approach that will:

• Uncover stressors and the roots of these disorders
• Implement strategies for adjusting thoughts, actions and reactions
• Learn and practice skills to manage your symptoms
• Offer you a new perspective on problems
• Teach methods for coping with feelings
• Improve communication skills
• Help you recognize warning signs if your symptoms start worsening

These disorders are easily manageable with the right treatment plan and a willingness to learn ways to modify the behaviors that trigger your symptoms.

Symptoms of Anxiety or Depression

Are you currently feeling the following:

• Feel jumpy or jittery?
• Have an upset stomach or nausea?
• Worry all the time, about every little thing?
• Feel like you can’t cope with your life?
• Repeatedly have the same worrisome thoughts?
• Have difficulty concentrating or remembering things?
• Experience fatigue and decreased energy?
• Feel hopeless or worthless?
• Experience a loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed?
• Have persistent sad feelings?

If you can relate to several of these questions, anxiety therapy or depression therapy may be an option to improve your physical, emotional and mental health.
