Anxiety & Stress
When your brain keeps holding meetings you never scheduled.
Understanding what brings you in
Anxiety can be loud, efficient, exhausting, and strangely convincing.
You may rehearse every possibility, keep adding one more task, struggle to rest without guilt, or feel responsible for preventing problems before they happen.
Therapy can help you notice what the worry is trying to accomplish and what it costs you when it gets to make every decision.
Experiences and concerns
The pattern may look like
Replaying conversations long after they are over
Constant planning for what might go wrong
Tension, irritability, restlessness, or poor sleep
Perfectionism or fear of choosing incorrectly
Avoiding decisions because every option feels risky
Feeling guilty when you are not being productive
How counseling may help
Make the worry less mysterious and less in charge.
Avery may help you map what sets anxiety off, what it predicts, what you do next, and which short-term fixes accidentally keep the cycle running.
The work can include practical experiments, body awareness, mindfulness, or curiosity about earlier experiences when they seem connected to the current pressure.
