Anxiety Therapy and Counseling Services

Everyone feels nervous or stressed at one time or another, but anxiety disorders can have a serious effect on one’s everyday life. An individual may feel overwhelmed by thoughts and feelings of helplessness or find it difficult to concentrate on work. He or she could also spend restless nights trying and failing to sleep.

If you’re one of the millions who suffer from this common mental health issue, you don’t have to face it alone. MySpectrum can provide anxiety therapy in Virginia, regardless of where you live in the state. We offer compassionate, professional services in-person as well as teletherapy options. Whether you are near our home office in North Chesterfield or in Northern Virginia, we can provide you with help in a way that is convenient and comfortable.

Treatment That Covers the Entire Spectrum

These disorders can take many forms. An individual may suffer from a crippling fear of public spaces, or extreme difficulty in social situations. He or she might be beset by a sudden rush of negative feelings in an unfamiliar setting. No matter what a person may be dealing with, our anxiety counseling can give him or her the tools to overcome and manage various symptoms. Our experienced professional anxiety therapists can assist with:

  • Panic disorder

  • Agoraphobia

  • Social anxiety

  • General anxiety disorder

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder

  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder

Common Signs and Symptoms of Anxiety

It’s normal to be uncomfortable and nervous in stressful situations. However, those who suffer from these types of mental health concerns often find their symptoms getting in the way of living their lives. Some of the most common signs include:

  • Increased heart rate

  • Excessive sweating

  • Hyperventilation

  • Difficulty sleeping

  • Feelings of impending doom

  • Restlessness

  • Difficulties with concentration

  • Gastrointestinal issues

In-person and online anxiety counseling can help alleviate these issues and give you a chance to live a better life.

  • This has been a great experience and I appreciate being able to have my therapy sessions via telehealth. Very responsive, easy to schedule, and I found a great therapist that is helping me with my anxiety.
    Ellen W.
  • I love the fact that I don't have to choose my job over mental health. They have evening and weekend appointments. I am also grateful that I never have to feel judged or condemned, that I can feel comfortable sharing the real me.
    Angie G.
  • So far, after over a year, our experience has been good. My daughter’s therapist sees her virtually. She’s spoken to me via telephone and email when we needed to discuss bigger things or ways to help my daughter.
