How Health Anxiety Counseling Can Help

Our therapists use evidence-based approaches to help you manage the fears and thought patterns that fuel your anxiety.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Challenge irrational health-related fears and build more realistic, balanced thinking.

  • Mind-Body Awareness Tools: Learn how anxiety affects your body and use grounding, mindfulness, and breathing strategies to calm physical symptoms.

  • Reduce Reassurance-Seeking Behaviors: Break the cycle of compulsive checking, doctor visits, or online searching that fuels more anxiety.

  • Improve Trust in Your Body and Medical Care: Build confidence in your ability to cope with uncertainty, physical sensations, and medical advice.

  • Regain Control Over Daily Life: Restore focus, sleep, and productivity by reducing mental preoccupation with health concerns.
