Anxiety
ANXIETY IN ANYONE
Anxiety strikes anyone, anywhere at any time. It can affect individuals regardless of age, gender, education, income or marital status
FEELING HELPLESS AND HOPELESS?
Anxiety creates a paralytic feeling which holds individuals helpless and hopeless until it passes. At their peaks, panic attacks feel as if they will shut off one’s ability to breathe.
FEELING AFRAID
Anxiety creates excessive fear, often from distorted and unrealistic thoughts. This robs the individual of sleep, comfort and peace.
QUICK ONSET
Many times anxiety comes with little or no warning signs and often dissipates in a similar manner. During counseling clients learn their personal triggers and will be taught to anticipate and prepare to manage or even stop the onset of anxiety.
FEELING OUT OF CONTROL
Anxiety can cause an individual to feel out of control. This leads to fear and embarrassment that someone has permanently lost control over their body and mind.
Irrational thoughts cause heart palpitations, sweaty palms, face, brows and armpits. Some feel weak and shaky as if they may pass out or even die.
FEELING
HOPELESS
An individual can feel hopeless. That emotion perpetuates deeper levels of anxiety. It becomes a vicious never-ending and frightening cycle.
Individuals experiencing anxiety feel and fear everyone is watching them and judging them. They wonder what's the matter with themselves. Worry, irrational thoughts, and extreme fear often lead to panic.
Regain control over fearful, out-of-control feelings.

I recall my initial visit and could feel his warmth and concern from the very beginning. Perhaps what helped me grow the most were personal examples he shared from his life, to which I could relate. He was not afraid to be real and genuine.

I am NOT the healer; I provide the skills and techniques through focused homework assignments. Once learned, practiced, and applied, individuals gain the joy and personal satisfaction of being again in charge of their minds, bodies and emotions. What a contrast! Individuals can move from fear of anxiety to exhilaration and freedom!
I’ve helped dozens of clients regain control again, take their lives back, and return to activities they thought they had given up forever.
I highly recommend Gordon Foote to anyone who may need professional, compassionate, and understanding counsel. It has meant a lot to my son and to myself.
