Is anxiety taking your breath away?
Let's tackle it!
Psychologists specialised in anxiety in Valencia and online.
Imagine being on board the Titanic on that fateful night, feeling panic and despair grow as the ship sinks into the cold waters of the Atlantic. Anxiety wraps around you, making you feel trapped and hopeless, as if nothing and no one could rescue you in time, and powerless to do anything about it.
Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.
Even if you're not living the same situation, could it be that you recognise that feeling?
Sometimes life puts one or many icebergs in our way and we can feel we're sinking, powerless because nothing we do seems to work, while we think we're losing control of the situation completely.
But unlike the Titanic's passengers, you do have the chance to change course, find a way to overcome the anxiety that torments you and reach a safe harbour.
For my part, I'd be glad to accompany you on this journey.
Could you relate to this?
Anxiety can feel like constant fear and restlessness that, the more you try to explain it, the more hopeless you feel, because it seems nobody fully understands you.
People who live with it often describe feeling something like this:
- “I can't stop worrying and finding reasons to keep worrying.”
- “I'm afraid of the future.”
- “I feel overwhelmed all day.”
- “I don't feel there is a solution.”
- “I don't cope well with uncertainty.”
- “It's very hard for me not to be in full control of some things.”
- “My thoughts keep me awake at night.”
- “My body sends me signals: pressure in my chest, a pounding heart, a lump in my throat, heavy sweating, hot flushes, dizziness, headaches…”
If you recognised yourself in any of these sentences, let me tell you that it is very common during periods of anxiety, and it can be overcome.
In therapy we will try to understand where all this comes from and draw up the plan needed to change it.
Hi! I'm Álvaro, a general health psychologist.
In therapy I like to create a warm space where we can properly understand what is happening, and also take action when we're ready. I work from an integrative approach, adapting the tools and the pace of the process to each person.
