Dealing with Anxiety
This week, Alina Vasilache, our clinical psychologist talks about how she witnesses anxiety during her practice and the different types of anxiety that people go through. Anxiety is a feeling of unease, such as worry or fear that can cause disruption in our lives and is now considered one of the highest burden rates in the world. We discuss the different forms of anxiety, the potential root causes of it, and to learn ways on how to cope with it.
