Health Anxiety
Do you often find yourself unreasonably stressed when it comes to your health? Do you find it impacts your life more than you would like it to? You could be suffering from health anxiety.
Health anxiety is when you spend excessive amounts of time worrying about your health and it takes over your life in an abnormal way. Common symptoms are:
Constantly worrying about health matters
Frequently checking for physical signs of illness
Often asking people for reassurance that you’re not sick
Worrying that performed medical tests may be inaccurate
Whilst anxiety medication can prove useful in short-term scenarios, therapy is often applauded as the most effective measure against health anxiety. With therapy, the root causes of your symptoms can be uncovered and addressed directly. This does not only alleviate your symptoms but addresses the causes as well, which leads to more inner peace and happiness.
I’m confident I can help you combat health anxiety, so you can relieve yourself from the unnecessary stress you’re experiencing. My therapy sessions can help you discover what’s giving you anxiety, as well as gain new perspectives on situations and develop better coping mechanisms.
