Anxiety Counselling in Liverpool & Online Across Australia

What Is Anxiety?

Anxiety is a natural human response to stress or perceived danger, but for many, it becomes chronic, intense, and difficult to manage. Left untreated, anxiety can interfere with relationships, work, school, and physical health.

Common symptoms of anxiety include:

• Constant worry or fear, often about everyday things
• Trouble sleeping or relaxing
• Rapid heartbeat or shortness of breath
• Muscle tension or fatigue
• Difficulty concentrating
• Avoidance of certain situations or people
• Panic attacks or sudden waves of intense fear

Anxiety is not a sign of weakness; it’s a signal that your mind and body are under strain. With the help of a trained therapist for anxiety, you can unpack the underlying patterns and build new, healthier ways to cope.

Our Anxiety Treatment Services

At MindSea Psychology, we tailor our anxiety treatment to the person and not just the diagnosis. Everyone experiences anxiety differently, and that’s why our care is always personalised, holistic, and grounded in evidence-based techniques.

1. Individual Anxiety Counselling

Work one-on-one with an anxiety psychologist in Liverpool or online to explore what’s fuelling your anxious thoughts and behaviours. Through individual counselling, we’ll help you understand how anxiety operates in your brain and body, and teach you tools to regain control and feel more at ease.

We support individuals experiencing:

• Generalised anxiety disorder (GAD)
• Panic disorder and panic attacks
• Social anxiety
• Health anxiety
• Performance anxiety
• Obsessive-compulsive patterns (OCD traits)
• Phobias and avoidance
• Stress and burnout
• Trauma-related anxiety

Our anxiety therapists employ a collaborative and non-judgmental approach, always working at your pace.

2. Anxiety Counselling for Children and Adolescents

Anxiety in young people can look different from adults and, as such, is often misunderstood. Children may complain of stomach aches, struggle with sleep, withdraw from school, or become irritable when feeling overwhelmed.

Our child and teen psychologists offer developmentally appropriate anxiety counselling, helping young clients:

• Understand and talk about their feelings
• Manage separation anxiety, social anxiety or school refusal
• Build resilience and emotional regulation
• Learn calming strategies that work for their age
• Feel safe and heard

We also work closely with parents, carers, and schools to ensure everyone is supported.

3. Couples and Family Anxiety Support

Anxiety doesn’t just affect the individual; it impacts relationships, parenting, and family dynamics. We support couples and families experiencing stress, conflict, or disconnection due to anxiety, helping them develop better communication, understanding, and shared strategies.

Whether it’s supporting a partner with anxiety or parenting an anxious child or teen, our psychologists can help you navigate the journey together.

How We Treat Anxiety: Our Therapeutic Approach

Every client is unique, and their treatment is tailored accordingly. Our psychologists for anxiety are trained in a range of evidence-based therapies that address both the symptoms and the root causes of anxiety.

We draw on approaches including:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Identify and reframe anxious thoughts and behaviours
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Build emotional flexibility and resilience
• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT): Learn emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills
• Mindfulness-Based Therapy: Cultivate present-moment awareness and calm
• Schema Therapy: Address long-standing patterns and self-beliefs that fuel anxiety
• Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR): For trauma-based anxiety
• Systemic Family Therapy: Improve dynamics in families dealing with anxiety

Each therapist on our team works closely with you to create a personalised therapy plan that suits your needs, preferences, and goals.

What Causes Anxiety?

There is no single cause of anxiety, it often develops from a combination of:

• Genetics and brain chemistry
• Life experiences, such as trauma, grief, or stress
• Family dynamics and early childhood experiences
• Personality traits, like perfectionism or sensitivity
• Health conditions and hormonal imbalances
• Current stressors such as work, finances, or parenting

Regardless of the cause, our job is not to judge, but to understand, support, and equip you with tools that foster long-term wellbeing.
