When Your Brain Won't Hit the Brakes

Your thoughts are like a browser with 47 tabs open - everything's running at once, and nothing will close. You're mentally rehearsing conversations that haven't happened yet, planning for problems that might never come, and your body feels like it's been holding its breath all day.

If this sounds familiar...

  • Your thoughts spiral into worst-case scenarios before you can catch them

  • You feel anxious about being anxious - it's become a cycle you can't break

  • Physical symptoms show up uninvited: racing heart, tight chest, trouble sleeping, can't turn off your brain at night

  • You're exhausted from the mental chatter and constant planning

  • You avoid decisions or put things off because "what if" feels overwhelming

  • You're tired of worry stealing energy from the things that actually matter

You're Not Broken - Your Brain is Just Working Overtime

Anxiety isn't a character flaw or sign of weakness. It's often your brain's way of trying to protect you, even when that protection has become overwhelming. My approach to anxiety therapy in Bentonville starts with this understanding. If you're reading this, you're already taking a brave step toward feeling better.
Many thoughtful, accomplished people struggle with high functioning anxiety. Your careful mind probably helps you succeed in many areas - you're prepared, detail-oriented, and considerate. You'll learn to harness these qualities as strengths while creating space for rest and flexibility.

What Becomes Possible When Anxiety Isn't Running the Show

  • Waking up without that immediate rush of worry about the day ahead

  • Making decisions from a place of clarity rather than fear

  • Having energy for the people and activities you truly care about

  • Feeling confident in your ability to handle difficult emotions and situations 

  • Sleeping better because your mind actually gets quiet

  • Trusting yourself and your judgment more
