Therapy for anxiety

If you're constantly worrying, struggling to relax, or feeling overwhelmed by racing thoughts, you're not alone. Anxiety is one of the most common mental health issues—but with the right support, it’s also one of the most treatable.

At PLE Health, we offer professional, evidence-based therapy for anxiety. Whether you’ve had anxiety for years or it’s started recently, we’re here to help you understand it and find ways to manage it—on your terms.

What is anxiety?

Anxiety is a natural part of life, but when it starts to affect your sleep, your work, your relationships, or your ability to enjoy everyday things, it may be time to seek help.

Common signs of anxiety include:

Constant worry or overthinking
Restlessness or feeling on edge
Physical symptoms like racing heart, nausea, or muscle tension
Trouble sleeping or relaxing
Avoiding situations or people due to fear or panic
A general feeling that something’s “not right”

Everyone’s experience is different, and anxiety can show up in many forms, from generalised anxiety to panic attacks, phobias, health anxiety, or social anxiety.

How therapy can help with anxiety

Therapy helps you understand the root of your anxiety and learn tools to manage it. It’s not about quick fixes or telling you to “just relax.” It’s about working with someone who listens and helps you feel more in control.

You’ll learn how to:

Identify anxious thought patterns
Calm physical symptoms of stress
Build confidence in difficult situations
Break cycles of avoidance or fear
Develop healthier ways of coping

You don’t have to feel this way forever. Therapy gives you space to explore what’s going on and support to move forward.

What therapy options are available?

At PLE Health, we offer a range of therapies to treat anxiety, including:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): A practical approach that helps you challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours
Mindfulness-based therapy: Helps reduce anxious thoughts and build awareness of the present moment
Trauma-informed therapy: For anxiety linked to past experiences
EMDR: Useful for anxiety rooted in trauma or intense life events

We’ll talk through your needs and recommend a therapy style that suits you. Sessions are available online or in person, and we offer short-term and longer-term support.
