Has Your Anxiety Become Too Difficult To Manage?
Are you a high-functioning professional who has been able to effectively deal with your anxiety until now? Has your stress in life increased, and you can’t help but feel overwhelmed? Do you experience times of panic--and in those moments, what you fear appears to be much worse than it actually is?
Telehealth Treatment for Anxiety in Women
Maybe the strategies you have used to find peace no longer work, as your anxiety symptoms have become more severe. Perhaps you have always taken pride in your ability to maintain focus and “get the job done,” but now you’ve become nervous and jittery in the workplace. As destabilizing moments have become more frequent, you may also experience anxiety symptoms in the body such as heavy sweating or a faster-than-normal heartbeat.
Perhaps you can no longer calm yourself--hot flashes to the body, racing thoughts, or intense feelings of dread. Maybe sleep has also become a chore, as you find yourself easily awakened or troubled by restlessness throughout the night.
These symptoms can cause discomfort and lead to decreased productivity, lack of contentment with life, and less focus at school, work, or toward your own personal needs. As the stress becomes less manageable, regaining control over your life can feel impossible.
Nonetheless, becoming the best version of yourself and reaching your full potential is possible. And regaining control is possible. Anxiety disorder treatment options can give you the tools you need to get back in the driver’s seat of your life so that you can once again place your best foot forward.
Anxiety in women is an evolutionary response to stress and danger.
When we experience either one, our fight-or-flight response is activated, and our bodies release stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline to keep us safe. Under most circumstances, our bodies will return back to normal after about 20 to 30 minutes. Yet when stressors become unmanageable, then the resulting anxiety we develop can exist long-term and lead to health issues.
Anxiety Disorders
Why do nearly 1 in 5 adults suffer from anxiety disorders and why is anxiety the most common mental health struggle on the planet? While no one person’s experience is the same, one reason is that most of us eventually break from bending to meet unrealistic expectations--whether those of our own or the culture at large. We live in a society that is obsessed with success, and when we don’t live up to our own definition of success, we often become anxious about our future and wonder if we’re not good enough.
Online Anxiety treatment at LunaJoy
can provide the care and counsel you need to heal from your struggles. We will lead you through your experiences objectively so that you can develop coping strategies to deal with your anxiety more effectively.
Many of us also place others’ emotional well-being before our own, shouldering the difficulties of friends and family in addition to personal struggles we also face. And the impact of our own struggles can deepen when we have no one to turn to in our times of need.
Should we lack this much-needed support, we may be forced to deal with debilitating anxiety alone. And if our anxiety levels are high enough--and we can no longer manage our anxiety--then we will lack the know-how to properly address it. More than a listening ear, our recovery will likely require professional help.

There are many different approaches we use in the recovery process. Breathwork can be a powerful tool for reconnecting with your body so that you can mitigate a heightened response to anxiety and regain agency over it. Cognitive Behavioral-Therapy (CBT) allows you to transform negative thinking patterns into more positive ones that can inspire more constructive outcomes in your decision-making processes. We also offer conventional medication management, which provides instruction on how medication can be a supplementary tool for healing and recovery. You have the option of working with a psychiatrist to see how medication may help you.

Maybe you still have questions about anxiety treatment...
I can deal with my troubles alone, without therapy.
We commend your ability to address anxiety on your own--and we do not doubt your ability to continue to do the same. However, if you notice that your anxiety has worsened, a therapist can offer you a safe space to work through these challenges with support that you might not experience in the wider world. Additionally, we can give you tools to deal with anxiety long-term, enabling you to find relief even if therapy has been discontinued.
I do not have time in my schedule for anxiety therapy.
The awkward truth is that those who stand to benefit the most from therapy often struggle to find the time for it. As a result, anxiety can continue to impact their quality of life. If this is the case with you, then anxiety treatment might help. We also offer teletherapy to make attending therapy less time-consuming. Many of our teletherapy clients fit in one session per week for the amount of time it takes to travel to and from our office.
Can Anxiety Be Treated or Cured?
