What is Anxiety?

Anxiety (often referred to as Generalized Anxiety Disorder or GAD) is characterized by excessive worry and nervousness. Symptoms include a racing heart, restlessness, sweating, and sometimes even panic attacks. Many people also experience a sense of impending doom or intense nervousness. Approximately 10-15% of Americans suffer from some form of anxiety disorder, which, if untreated, can lead to more severe mental health issues such as major depression.

At Resilient Mind Psychotherapy, we offer anxiety treatment in Brooklyn for individuals experiencing these symptoms. Therapy helps clients manage anxiety through techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and other strategies.

What is Depression?

Depression (also known as Major Depressive Disorder or MDD) can severely impact one’s ability to enjoy life. Symptoms include persistent sadness, changes in sleep and appetite, loss of interest in activities, low energy, and, in some cases, thoughts of suicide. Research shows that 15% of adults will experience depression at some point, and tragically, 1 in 6 people battling depression may attempt suicide.

Our therapists provide depression therapy in Brooklyn, offering compassionate support and evidence-based approaches to help clients regain their sense of purpose and joy.

What is Trauma?

Trauma results from an adverse experience that overwhelms a person’s ability to cope or process emotions like adverse childhood experiences. Many individuals experience trauma during childhood due to abuse, neglect, or other difficult circumstances. Symptoms of trauma may include excessive guilt, shame, anger, sadness, mood swings, nightmares, and more. Unprocessed trauma can lead to the development of anxiety or depression over time.

At Resilient Mind Psychotherapy, we offer specialized trauma therapy in Brooklyn to help individuals heal from their past and rebuild a sense of security and confidence.

How Psychotherapy Helps

Psychotherapy provides a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their feelings and thoughts. Our therapists help clients become more aware of their inner experiences, allowing them to process repressed emotions and integrate them into their lives. Through this healing process, individuals can manage symptoms related to anxiety, depression, and trauma.

We employ a variety of leading-edge therapeutic methods to assist clients, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and trauma-focused therapy. These approaches help clients manage their emotional responses, reduce symptoms, and find relief.
