Is Anxiety Holding You Back?

Anxiety can show up in many ways — persistent worry, panic attacks, overthinking, sleepless nights, or physical symptoms like a racing heart and tight chest. Sometimes, anxiety doesn't look like worry at all. It can come out as frustration or irritability — and in men, it's not uncommon for anxiety to present as anger. Because anxiety is often associated with nervousness or fretfulness, many men are surprised when they discover their frustration is rooted in anxiety.

Whether you're facing social anxiety, generalized anxiety, health-related fears, situational stress, or these lesser-recognized symptoms, anxiety can make everyday life feel overwhelming. At Rippeyoung & Associates, we understand that anxiety isn't "just stress." It's a genuine and valid experience that can impact your relationships, work, and overall well-being. We're here to help you manage your symptoms, understand their roots, and reclaim a sense of peace and control in your life.

Our Approach to Therapy for Anxiety In Ottawa

Therapy is a collaborative process that honours your experiences and empowers you to move forward at your own pace. When it comes to anxiety, we take a compassionate, personalized, and evidence-based approach, which may include:

• Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to challenge anxious thoughts and develop healthier thinking patterns
• Mindfulness-based strategies to help ground you in the present and reduce spiralling worry
• Exploration of root causes, including trauma, attachment wounds, or life transitions
• Tools for emotional regulation and stress management for day-to-day relief
