Anxiety Therapy
When Anxiety Feels Like It Never Fully Switches Off
Anxiety can feel like constant overthinking, tension in your body, difficulty relaxing, or a sense that something is always “not quite right.” For many people, it shows up in relationships, work stress, or a persistent feeling of overwhelm that doesn’t fully go away.
At Soma Clinical Counselling in North Vancouver, anxiety therapy focuses on understanding what your nervous system is trying to protect you from—not just managing symptoms. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and attachment-based approaches, we work to help you feel more grounded, emotionally regulated, and connected to yourself and others.
What Anxiety Can Look Like
Anxiety doesn’t always look like panic. It can show up in subtle and chronic ways, such as:
Overthinking or rumination
Difficulty relaxing or slowing down
Sleep issues or restlessness
Feeling easily overwhelmed
Perfectionism or fear of mistakes
People-pleasing or fear of conflict
Physical tension, tight chest, or stomach discomfort
Constant “what if” thinking
Anxiety is often not just a thought pattern, it is a nervous system response shaped by stress, relationships, and past experiences.
