What is Separation Anxiety?
Separation anxiety involves intense fear or worry about being separated from a loved one, home, or place of comfort. While it’s normal to feel some anxiety when apart from someone important to you, excessive or prolonged anxiety can lead to difficulties in daily life. Common signs of separation anxiety include:
Intense fear of being apart from a loved one or familiar environment
Excessive worry about the well-being of a loved one during separation
Trouble sleeping or physical symptoms when anticipating or experiencing separation
Clinginess or refusal to go to school, work, or social events due to fear of separation
Overwhelming thoughts or distress when anticipating future separations
If you’re struggling with separation anxiety, know that you don’t have to face it alone. Professional treatment can help you overcome these challenges.
How Our Separation Anxiety Treatment Works
At Anxiety Counselling, we provide specialized treatment that is tailored to your unique experience with separation anxiety. Our approach focuses on helping you manage your symptoms, build resilience, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. Treatment may include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): This evidence-based therapy helps you identify and challenge the negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to your anxiety. By reframing these thought patterns, you can begin to feel more in control of your emotions and reduce fear around separation.
Exposure Therapy: Gradually exposing you to separation-related situations in a controlled, manageable way, helping you build tolerance to the anxiety and reduce its intensity over time.
Relaxation Techniques: Mindfulness, deep breathing, and progressive muscle relaxation exercises are taught to help you calm your mind and body when you start to feel anxious.
Parent-Child Counselling: If your child is experiencing separation anxiety, we offer family-centered therapy that involves both you and your child to improve communication, build coping skills, and work through the fears together.
Psychoeducation & Coping Strategies: Helping you understand the root causes of separation anxiety and providing you with practical tools to manage anxiety in your everyday life.
Our approach is empathetic and compassionate, ensuring that you feel understood and supported as you work through your anxiety.
