Understanding Depression with CarolanPsych

Anxiety can feel relentless — racing thoughts, physical tension, constant worry, or a sense of being “on edge” even when nothing seems wrong. If anxiety is affecting your sleep, work, relationships, or confidence, support is available. 

Carolan Psychology provides confidential, Australia‑wide telehealth therapy to help you understand your symptoms, reduce overwhelm, and regain a sense of calm and control.

Our approach is warm, practical, and grounded in evidence‑based treatment tailored to your needs.

Understanding Anxiety

Anxiety is a natural human response, but when it becomes persistent or overwhelming, it can interfere with daily life. People often experience:

• Excessive worry or overthinking

• Restlessness or feeling “wired”

• Difficulty concentrating

• Muscle tension, headaches, or stomach discomfort

• Panic attacks or sudden surges of fear

• Avoidance of situations that trigger anxiety

• Sleep difficulties or fatigue

Anxiety is highly treatable. With the right support, you can learn to manage symptoms, build confidence, and move toward a more balanced life.
