The Anxiety Project Podcast is your go-to resource for overcoming anxiety, hypochondria (health anxiety), trauma, and agoraphobia, naturally. During my childhood and into my twenties, I struggled with an anxiety disorder that completely held me back from living a fulfilling life. After many years of struggle and eventually reaching rock bottom with agoraphobia, I finally had enough and decided to create a whole new identity for myself. I studied Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, NLP, found a coach, rid myself of bad habits, released repressed emotional memories, and pursued through incredible resistance in order to reach my higher self. Now, as a Cognitive Behaviorist and NLP Master Practitioner, I aim to offer honest content that provides informative and relatable information about the many areas of anxiety. My mission is to provide a structured step by step approach to overcoming anxiety and sensitization naturally (through CBT and NLP practices) and build an honest and trustworthy rapport with those who seek help for their life challenges. ---MY RECOVERY PROGRAM--- https://unpluganxiety.com/my-program/ ---1 on 1 Coaching --- https://unpluganxiety.com/1-on-1-coac... ---Join The Community--- The Anxiety Project Website: https://unpluganxiety.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/unpluganxiety Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bradsprofile/
