Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts, and physical changes like increased blood pressure.

People with anxiety disorders usually have recurring intrusive thoughts or concerns. They may avoid certain situations out of worry. They may also have physical symptoms such as sweating, trembling, dizziness, or a rapid heartbeat.

Anxiety is not the same as fear, but they are often used interchangeably. Anxiety is considered a future-oriented, long-acting response broadly focused on a diffuse threat, whereas fear is an appropriate, present-oriented, and short-lived response to a clearly identifiable and specific threat.

Adapted from the Encyclopedia of Psychology and APA Dictionary of Psychology

Responding to Anger: How to Control Tough Emotions Like Anger and Frustration

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms "therapist" and "counselor" are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

"I attended the Pre-Apprenticeship Program in May 2022 with hopes of learning about trades. My counselor, Rhea Burns, suggested the 5-week Pre-Apprenticeship course & I have tremendously benefited from taking the course. During the 5-week period, we refreshed our math skills and spoke about unions and trades which interested us. I decided to apply to Operating Engineers & IBEW. Fast forward to September of 2022, I got an offer to be a surveyor and am proud to be part of Operating Engineers. Anyone who is serious about their career should consider enrolling in the Pre-Apprenticeship and learn the basics & fundamentals of the trade." -Arun Nasir Ahmad
