Anxiety Therapy for Women
in Atlanta, GA
Courageous Counseling provides anxiety therapy for women across Georgia through virtual sessions and in-person appointments in the Decatur area.
Anxiety can affect your thoughts, feelings, relationships, work performance, sleep, and physical health. While occasional stress is a normal part of life, ongoing anxiety can begin to feel emotionally exhausting and difficult to manage alone.
The Weight So Many Women Carry
Anxiety disorders are one of the most common mental health concerns in the United States.
Approximately 1 in 6 U.S. adults (19.1%) have an anxiety disorder (NAMI).
Women are significantly more likely than men to experience anxiety disorders.
23.4% of women experienced an anxiety disorder in the past year compared to 14.3% of men (ADAA).
Many women spend years in survival mode while appearing “high functioning” on the outside. Therapy can provide space to slow down, better understand your emotional experiences, and develop healthier coping strategies.
