Anxiety Therapy in Altamonte Springs

You Don’t Have to Manage Anxiety Alone

Everyone feels anxious sometimes — before a big meeting, during a life transition, or in moments of uncertainty. But when anxiety starts to take over your thoughts, interfere with your sleep, or affect your relationships, it may be time to seek support.

At New Light Counseling, we help individuals in Altamonte Springs and across Florida understand and manage anxiety through compassionate, evidence-based therapy — both in person and online.

What Does Anxiety Look Like?

Anxiety can show up in many ways, including:

Constant worrying or racing thoughts
Difficulty sleeping or relaxing
Avoiding situations or people
Panic attacks or intense fear
Trouble focusing or feeling "on edge"
Physical symptoms like chest tightness, rapid heartbeat, or stomach issues

If these symptoms are interfering with your daily life, therapy can help you find relief and reclaim a sense of calm and control.

Our therapists use personalized approaches based on your unique needs and history. Some of the methods we may use include:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and learn tools to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – Build skills for emotional regulation, mindfulness, and distress tolerance
Mindfulness-Based Approaches – Learn to stay grounded, present, and better manage anxious thoughts
Somatic Skills – Connect with your body to release tension and manage the physical symptoms of anxiety
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) – Especially effective for OCD and phobia-related avoidance
Narrative Therapy – Explore how your life story influences your anxiety and identity
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) – For anxiety linked to trauma or distressing experiences
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) – A body-based method to process and release anxiety
Coping Skills and Lifestyle Tools – Develop practical strategies to reduce overwhelm and build resilience

We won’t just give you surface-level tips. Our work together is about getting to the root of your anxiety, supporting you in healing, and helping you create a calmer, more balanced life that feels like your own.
