Is anxiety the same as stress?

No, anxiety and stress are distinct experiences. Stress arises from external pressures, while anxiety is more internal. Anxiety can linger even when stressors are resolved.

Anxiety can stem from various triggers, including stress and trauma. A family history of anxiety can also increase susceptibility. These factors contribute to the complexity of anxiety.

Typical duration of therapy?

On average, clients may need 15 to 20 sessions for effective recovery. However, individual experiences vary based on anxiety severity. Some may find ongoing therapy beneficial without a defined endpoint.
