If you're struggling with anxiety in Markham, you're not alone. Many individuals in our community experience overwhelming stress, persistent worry, or feelings of panic that interfere with their day-to-day life. Whether you're dealing with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks, or work-related stress, anxiety therapy in Markham can help you regain control and feel more like yourself again.
When Worry Becomes Too Much
It’s normal to feel anxious from time to time—but when anxiety starts to affect your relationships, career, sleep, or overall wellbeing, it may be time to seek professional support.
Some common signs of anxiety include:
Constant overthinking or fear that something bad will happen
Difficulty sleeping or staying asleep
Tension in your body—tight shoulders, clenched jaw, stomach aches
Avoidance of social situations or new experiences
Racing heart, shortness of breath, or feeling easily overwhelmed
Trouble focusing or making decisions
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and help is available.
