You might not call it anxiety. You might call it stress, or being a worrier, or just the way you've always been. But if your mind rarely stops racing, if you avoid things you know you should face, or if the physical symptoms are getting harder to ignore, it's worth paying attention to what's going on.
A mind that won't stop replaying conversations or anticipating problems
Tight chest, shallow breathing, or a knot in your stomach that won't let up
Putting off or avoiding things because of how they make you feel
Struggling to fall asleep or waking up already on edge
Snapping at people you care about over small things
Feeling like you're constantly waiting for something bad to happen
You don't have to keep managing this alone. Anxiety is one of the most treatable mental health conditions, and the right support can make a genuine difference to how you feel every day.
We use evidence-based approaches like CBT to help you understand your anxiety and build real, lasting strategies for managing it.

Questions Leppington 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.
