Effective Anxiety Treatment Tailored to Your Needs

NDIS REFERRAL FORM

Understanding Anxiety

Defining anxiety, illustrating its symptoms, causes, and psychological impact,

What Is Anxiety and Its Symptoms?

Anxiety is a natural response to stress or perceived danger, but when it becomes persistent, overwhelming, or interferes with daily life, it may indicate an anxiety disorder. Symptoms of anxiety vary from person to person but often include:

  • Physical symptoms: Racing heart, sweating, shortness of breath, dizziness, or fatigue.
  • Emotional symptoms: Excessive worry, fear, or feelings of impending doom.
  • Behavioural symptoms: Avoiding certain situations, withdrawing from social activities, or restlessness.


If you’ve been experiencing these symptoms for a prolonged period, seeking professional support can help you manage anxiety effectively.

How Anxiety Impacts Daily Life

Untreated anxiety can significantly affect your personal, social, and professional life, leading to:

  • Difficulty concentrating at work or school.
  • Strained relationships due to irritability, avoidance, or communication barriers.
  • Physical health issues, such as insomnia, chronic pain, or digestive problems.
  • Loss of enjoyment in hobbies and activities that once brought you happiness.


At Calm ‘n’ Caring, our evidence-based treatments focus on reducing anxiety’s impact, helping you regain control and improve your quality of life.

Common Causes of Anxiety

Anxiety can be triggered by a variety of factors, including:

  • Genetics: A family history of anxiety disorders.
  • Environmental factors: Stressful life events, trauma, or major changes.
  • Biological factors: Imbalances in brain chemistry or medical conditions.
  • Lifestyle factors: Poor sleep, unhealthy diets, or excessive use of caffeine or alcohol.


Understanding the root cause of your anxiety is the first step toward effective treatment. Our psychologists work closely with you to identify triggers and develop tailored strategies to address them.

Our Approach to Anxiety Treatment

Evidence-Based Therapies for Anxiety

At Calm ‘n’ Caring, we use proven, evidence-based approaches to help individuals overcome anxiety and regain control of their lives. Our psychologists specialise in therapies that are supported by extensive research, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): The gold standard for treating anxiety.
  • Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR): Enhances emotional regulation and reduces stress.
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Helps individuals focus on their values while managing anxious thoughts.


These therapies target the root causes of anxiety and provide practical tools to help you manage symptoms effectively.

CBT for Anxiety: Proven Strategies That Work

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective treatments for anxiety. This structured approach helps you:

  • Identify negative thought patterns that contribute to your anxiety.
  • Challenge unhelpful beliefs and replace them with healthier perspectives.
  • Develop coping strategies to manage anxiety in challenging situations.


CBT is particularly effective for Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Social Anxiety, and Panic Disorders, and our psychologists personalise each session to address your unique needs and goals.

Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques

Mindfulness and relaxation techniques are powerful tools for managing anxiety and promoting overall wellbeing. At Calm ‘n’ Caring, we teach you how to:

  • Practice mindfulness exercises to stay grounded in the present moment.
  • Use deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation to calm your body and mind.
  • Incorporate relaxation strategies into your daily routine to reduce stress and prevent anxiety triggers.


These methods complement traditional therapy and help build resilience against future anxiety episodes.

Tailored Therapy Plans for Every Individual

We understand that anxiety affects everyone differently, which is why our psychologists create personalised therapy plans to address your unique circumstances. Our tailored approach considers:

  • Your specific anxiety type (e.g., GAD, phobias, panic attacks).
  • Your personal goals for treatment, whether it’s reducing symptoms, improving relationships, or enhancing daily functioning.
  • Your preferences for therapy style, including in-clinic sessions, telehealth appointments, or at-home therapy.


By customising your treatment plan, we ensure you receive the most effective support to overcome anxiety and achieve long-lasting results.

Types of Anxiety We Treat

Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is characterised by excessive and persistent worry about everyday situations, often without a clear cause. This constant state of worry can lead to symptoms such as:

  • Difficulty concentrating.
  • Restlessness or irritability.
  • Physical symptoms like fatigue, muscle tension, and headaches.


At Calm 'n' Caring, we specialise in treating GAD through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and personalised strategies to help you reduce worry and regain peace of mind.

Social Anxiety (Social Phobia)

Social Anxiety, also known as social phobia, involves an intense fear of being judged, embarrassed, or scrutinised in social situations. Common signs include:

  • Avoidance of social interactions.
  • Physical symptoms like blushing, sweating, or trembling.
  • Fear of public speaking or meeting new people.


Our psychologists use evidence-based therapies to help you develop confidence, improve social skills, and manage anxiety in social settings. Whether through gradual exposure therapy or CBT, we provide the tools to thrive in social environments.

Panic Disorder

Panic Disorder involves sudden, unexpected episodes of intense fear, known as panic attacks, which can feel overwhelming and debilitating. Symptoms may include:

  • A racing heart or chest pain.
  • Shortness of breath or dizziness.
  • A fear of losing control or "going crazy."


Our therapy for panic disorder focuses on identifying triggers, managing symptoms during panic attacks, and addressing the root causes of fear through CBT and relaxation techniques. With the right support, you can break free from the cycle of panic attacks and regain control.

Specific Phobias (e.g., fear of flying, heights)

Specific phobias are intense, irrational fears of certain objects, situations, or activities, such as:

  • Fear of flying.
  • Fear of heights or enclosed spaces.
  • Fear of animals, such as spiders or snakes.


Through gradual exposure therapy, cognitive restructuring, and mindfulness techniques, we help you overcome these fears and reduce their impact on your daily life.

Health Anxiety and OCD

Health Anxiety involves constant worry about your health, often leading to frequent doctor visits, excessive online health research, and difficulty enjoying life. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), on the other hand, involves intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours aimed at reducing anxiety.


Our specialised therapies, including CBT and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), are designed to help you manage obsessive thoughts, reduce compulsive behaviours, and shift your focus to healthier patterns of thinking.

Anxiety Treatment for All Ages

Anxiety Therapy for Adults

Anxiety can significantly impact daily life, relationships, and career for adults. At Calm 'n' Caring, we offer tailored anxiety therapy for adults to help manage challenges such as:

  • Workplace stress and performance anxiety.
  • Parenting pressures and relationship conflicts.
  • Persistent worry, panic attacks, or social anxiety.


Our evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices, empower you to identify triggers, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and improve emotional regulation. Whether you prefer in-clinic therapy, telehealth appointments, or at-home sessions, we provide flexible options to fit your schedule.

Support for Teenagers and Young Adults

The teenage years and early adulthood are full of transitions that can exacerbate anxiety. Our specialised therapy for teenagers and young adults helps address:

  • Academic pressures and exam-related anxiety.
  • Social anxiety or challenges in building friendships.
  • Fear of the future or making major life decisions.


We use age-appropriate therapies to equip young people with tools for managing stress, improving confidence, and navigating their unique challenges. Our compassionate psychologists create a safe space for teens and young adults to express themselves and learn strategies to thrive during this critical stage of life.

Helping Children Overcome Anxiety

Children often experience anxiety differently than adults, sometimes through physical complaints (e.g., stomach aches) or changes in behaviour (e.g., avoidance, tantrums). Our child-focused anxiety therapy helps with:

  • Separation anxiety or school-related fears.
  • Phobias or bedtime anxieties.
  • Social challenges, such as making friends or speaking up.


Through play therapy, parent coaching, and evidence-based interventions, we help children build emotional resilience and develop coping skills to reduce anxiety. Parents are an integral part of the process, and we work collaboratively to create a supportive environment for your child to grow and thrive.
