Anxiety Treatment At The Center for Relational Transformation

At the Center for Relational Transformation we use a comprehensive approach to anxiety treatment. We will tune into your physical symptoms and show you some easy things to do to help your body feel better right away. We will also do an assessment of your lifestyle and make helpful suggestions of things you can do between sessions to help you feel better and lessen your anxiety. In counseling sessions, we will create a supportive environment where you can slow down and tune into the underlying fear that is causing the anxiety.

 

Often anxiety is what we feel when we run away from something that scares us. Sometimes we run so fast from our fear that we don't even know there is something that we are afraid of. Sometimes we are afraid of disappointing someone important to us. Sometimes we are afraid of losing someone's love. Sometimes we are afraid of feeling sadness or grief.

 

However, with the support of a caring therapist, when we let ourselves feel our fear, we can discover what we need to overcome our fear. Often we need reassurance from our partner that they love us even if we're not perfect. Sometimes we need to be reminded that that other person's love will still be there for us no matter what. At other times, we just need to cry. In getting what we really need, we find peace. And when we are no longer afraid, when we finally stop running, then we can appreciate the love and joy that is all around us. 

How Anxiety Treatment Helps

Anxiety treatment will help you get your life back. You can learn to use your fears to help you instead of letting them control you. Imagine living without racing thoughts as well as the ability to fall asleep with ease. Your relationships will also shift as you become less irritable and stress filled. You can live a life filled with calm instead of chaos. Anxiety treatment helps people from all walks of life to become the best they can be.

Next Steps to Finding Relief from Anxiety

Other Services At Relational Transformation

As a Chicago counseling center, we offer a variety of mental health services.  We know your needs rarely fit into one nice neat little box labeled "anxiety."

We provide individual therapy for many different issues including depression treatment. Additional, we specialize in couples and relationship counseling. We work with couples who have a variety of needs including marriage counseling, affair recovery, and compassionate communication training & counseling. Whatever your mental health needs may be, we want to help.

Do you take insurance?

 

Unfortunately, the insurance industry is not set up very well to help people in emotional distress. In order to use your insurance, you would need to be diagnosed with a mental illness. This diagnosis becomes part of your permanent medical record and can be used against you in future employment decisions and eligibility for insurance. Not only that, if you use in-network insurance, the insurance company then decides what treatment you are allowed to receive and for how many sessions. We believe that these decisions should be made between you and your therapist, not a bureaucrat sitting in a office somewhere. We also believe our time should be spent helping you, not arguing with that bureaucrat on why you need treatment.

 

Instead, we accept HSA, FSA, and HRA Cards. We also offer sliding scale slots to individuals or couples in need (you can talk to one of our therapists for more information). If you do want to use your insurance, we are accepted as an “out-of-network” provider, so you can get any out-of-network benefits that your plan provides. You will still need to have a diagnosis, but we will be able to have control over your course of treatment.
