Anxiety is one of the most common presenting problems for people coming into therapy. Work pressures, raising a family, reading the news, and the dumpster fire that is social media, can all be sources of stress. For folks with anxiety, severe stress can trigger anything from rumination and worry, to severe panic attacks.

Using Exposure Response Prevention, you can short-circuit unproductive thoughts and rituals that intensify irrational anxiety.
