Orlando Therapist: 15 Resources That Will Help Reduce Your Anxiety During COVID-19
Orlando Therapist: 15 Resources That Will Help Reduce Your Anxiety During COVID-19
The weeks are trudging along and many of us are still coming to terms with our new normal. Change is difficult for many people and can often bring up feelings of stress, overwhelming loss of control, and loneliness.
As an anxiety therapist in Orlando, I have been receiving messages from people looking for resources, outside of therapy, to help them settle, to learn more about the psychological functioning that is happening within themselves and others, as well as ways to organize their thinking and debunk the stories that their mind is telling them.
Here, I have created a quick list of a variety of resources that will be helpful in reducing your anxiety at this time.
