  • Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) impacts how you frame your life.

    It’s common for most people to experience an occasional degree of anxiety, however in contrast GAD is persistent and is present daily.

    People who suffer from GAD will experience excessive tension with little to no obvious cause.

    In some cases, when GAD is severe, physical symptoms can occur such as panic attacks, heart palpitations, digestive issues, and muscle soreness.

  • When people become aware of their anxiety symptoms, they often try to improve their lifestyle choices around diet, exercise and relationships.

    However, these can be hard to maintain long-term and may not work in more severe cases of anxiety.

    Sometimes medication is prescribed to numb the symptoms, but without a broader strategy this can in fact exacerbate the anxiety.

    The most effective form of treatment includes talking therapy, and at MAPP we have expertise in a variety of approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioural therapy (DBT) to help you become proactive with your anxiety.

  • A combination of therapeutic approaches like CBT and/or DBT with mindfulness, and possible interventions like transactional analysis, will give you a better understanding of your root causes and how to manage them.

    And we will work with you every step of the way towards a positive outcome.

    Seeking help is often the hardest part of the journey, and we want to help you start making better decisions for your future.
