What is Anxiety?

Anxiety is characterized by feelings of worry or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one’s daily activities, but not always. Feeling anxious is by far one of the most common feelings of uneasiness a person could encounter at some point during the course of their life.

Examples of Anxiety Disorders: Include panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), eating disorders,.

Symptoms Include: Rumination, which is overanalyzing negative feelings or thoughts. Stress that’s out of proportion to the impact of the event, inability to set aside a worry.

Treatment Include: Counseling or medications, including antidepressants.

How Does It Affect You?

Anxiety can lead to serious long-term physical and mental ailments if gone unchecked. Ongoing stress has been linked to unexplained body aches, general fatigue, isolation, avoidance, irrational obsessions, digestive problems, rapid heart rate, chest pain and memory loss. If you already have heart disease, anxiety disorders may raise the risk of coronary events.

How does anxiety affect your daily life?

Anxiety can disrupt a person’s life by impacting their relationships with others, self-confidence and ability to complete daily tasks at work or school.

Here's How We Can Help

Our team of licensed therapist’s treat this condition with a well-known, effective therapy modality called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). One of the treatment goals of CBT is to replace negative thoughts and actions with positive thoughts and behaviors. Throughout the treatment process we assist our clients with recognizing how their thoughts influence their emotions, which directly impacts their actions. The client will learn effective coping skills that will enable them to handle real-life situations whenever they occur. Together, the therapist and client will establish a personalize plan with attainable goals. Through consistent reinforcement an individual can fully restore the motivation and happiness they once had in their life.

Benefits of Treatment:

  • Boost your self-esteem and confidence level
  • Recognize and challenge negative thought patterns
  • Improve communication and listening skills
  • Improve personal / professional relationships
  • Develop strategies to feel calm and present during times of intense stress

Testimonials

Hi, my name is Deneen Smith,

On August 5, 2021 my mother passed away and after losing my best friend I didn’t know what to do. Even though, I had support from friends and family members I found myself in unfamiliar territory. Feelings of sadness and depression began to increase as the days went by. Although, I was unsure of what was happening to me, I knew I was going through a very troubling time in my life because no matter what I did I didn’t feel like myself anymore.

Upon hearing of the passing of my mother my dear friend who I’ve known since she was twelve years old, Nordrene Henry reached out to lend her support. Within a few minutes into our conversation, she sensed something was wrong with me. Till this day I’m not sure how she knew but she began to share the services Tru Outreach offers to people suffering with grief and loss of a loved one. Within 24 hours a licensed therapist was calling to talk with me. I can’t lie, I still miss my mother everyday but the days are much brighter lately. Thanks to Tru Outreach.

Hi, my name Renee Evans,

I would like to thank Tru Outreach, Inc. for being consistent and keeping the lines of communication open beyond normal work days and hours. Approximately, one year ago I called Tru Outreach for a family member and they walked us through the process of dealing with a very sensitive family matter. The love, kindness, knowledge and fast pace work the therapist exhibited on an ongoing basis made us feel like we mattered. TruOutreach moved swiftly getting my family member the helpthey needed right away. After,many months of hard work my family member is once again lively and filled with comedy. She has become more social and consciously makes an effort to feel more joy than sadness in her life. No one can imagine the happiness I feel to see her display self loves “every single day”. She is finally LIVING & NOT JUST BREATHING! I would like to thank the staff at Tru Outreach for all their hard work and dedication towards making a difference in the lives they touch … I am forever grateful.

Hi, my name is Bennett Bonner,

I am a recovering addict…Due to some poor choices a few years ago, my life started becoming more and more unmanageable, therefore I reached out to a childhood friend named Mr. Joseph Bullock. During our conversation he told me about numerous after-care services an organization he founded offers to brothers and sisters just like me. They offer a variety of services such as; mental health and workforce development and preparation, just to name a few. I didn’t hesitate, the very next day I followed up to obtain services for myself. The counselors and administrative staff at Tru Outreach treated me with respect, kindness and concern. They went above and beyond to provide support and guidance during a tough time in my life. I am living proof that Tru Outreach services works one day at a time.

Hi, my name is Terrina Sanders,

Being a parent doesn’t come with instructions. As a parent we are not always right, and sometimes we don’t know or have the right answers. Our faith maybe strong, but sometimes prayers aren’t enough.
When your child is displaying self-hate and depression, as their parent you automatically want to help save them. It can break you down mentally and emotionally. If I wasn’t referred to Tru Outreach, I wouldn’t be able to give this testimony. They were able to match me and my loved one with a mental health specialist to help us through our situation.
