For many Harrington Park adults, anxiety doesn't announce itself with a dramatic moment. It builds gradually. The to-do list that never stops growing, the Sunday night dread, the way your body tenses before you even know what you're worried about. At some point, you realise this level of worry isn't normal, and it's affecting everything.
Racing thoughts that keep you awake or make it hard to concentrate at work
Saying no to invitations or opportunities because of how they make you feel
Jaw clenching, shoulder tension, or unexplained aches and pains
Needing to check and re-check things or prepare excessively for simple tasks
A sense of dread or unease that you can't quite explain
Feeling exhausted from the mental effort of getting through each day

Questions Harrington Park adults commonly ask about anxiety treatment.
We primarily use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which has the strongest evidence base for treating anxiety. Depending on your needs, your psychologist may also draw on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) or other evidence-based approaches. The approach is always tailored to you.
It varies from person to person. Some people notice meaningful shifts within six to eight sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support. Your psychologist will check in regularly on your progress and adjust the plan as needed.
The first session is a chance for your psychologist to understand what's been going on and what you'd like to work on. There's no pressure to share everything at once. It's a conversation, not an interrogation, and most people tell us they feel relieved after that first appointment.
Yes. Psychological therapy is a highly effective standalone treatment for anxiety. Many people manage their anxiety well through therapy alone. If medication is something you'd like to explore, your psychologist can work alongside your GP to coordinate care.
You don't need a referral to book, but having a GP Mental Health Treatment Plan gives you access to Medicare rebates. We recommend seeing your GP first so you can get the most from your sessions financially.
