Anxiety of any kind can make life incredibly difficult. For example, if you have social anxiety disorder, you may not be able to go anywhere there are large groups of people and find it hard to make friends. Talking to strangers or even people you know may cause you to have a panic attack. The mental health providers in Monmouth are experienced in diagnosing and treating all types of anxiety disorders.
Once you get treatment for your anxiety, you should be able to start going out and enjoying everything Monmouth has to offer such as the Gentle Woods Park, Illahe Vineyards and Winery, Madrona Park, and the Inspiration Garden, which is a great place to relax. Talk to one of the Monmouth counselors about your anxiety so you can enjoy the town again.

A therapist wants to support you toward a healthier emotional state, no matter what you're dealing with (including behavioral health concerns, grief, anxiety, depression or stress). While helping to develop healthier emotions, another benefit of therapy is you have a safe space to discuss problems that you may be hesitant to talk about with people who you see everyday.
Many people have sensitive topics to discuss; possibly an addiction or an issue with their relationship that they’re ashamed to speak about with their friends and/or partner. A Monmouth therapist can help you confront these kinds of issues and find ways to face them and heal.
