GAD and worry

Everyone experiences worry, but for some, it can become overwhelming and disrupt daily life. Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a condition marked by persistent and excessive anxiety that can affect work, relationships, and health. CBT for Generalised Anxiety Disorder focuses on how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact, helping you understand why worry feels so hard to switch off.
