Anxiety is more than just occasional stress.
It’s a real and often overwhelming mental health condition that can affect your work, relationships, and overall quality of life. At Pathways Consulting in Kenosha, we understand how difficult it can be to manage anxiety on your own—and we’re here to provide the expert support and tools you need to take back control.
The Scope of Anxiety
Anxiety is the most common mental health disorder in the United States, affecting more than 40 million adults each year. Globally, anxiety disorders impact around 301 million people, making it one of the leading causes of disability. Despite how common anxiety is, many people don’t seek help—whether due to stigma, lack of resources, or uncertainty about where to turn.
At Pathways Consulting, we want you to know that effective, personalized care is available right here in Kenosha.
What Causes Anxiety?
Anxiety can arise from a variety of factors, including genetics, brain chemistry, and life circumstances. Often, it’s a combination of influences, such as:
- A family history of anxiety or other mental health conditions
- Imbalances in brain chemicals like serotonin and dopamine
- Traumatic experiences, chronic stress, or significant life changes
- Environmental pressures such as work demands, financial strain, or personal challenges
Recognizing these contributing factors is the first step toward understanding your anxiety and developing a treatment plan that works.

Recognizing the Signs
Many people with anxiety experience symptoms like persistent worry, restlessness, difficulty concentrating, fatigue, and trouble sleeping. Physical symptoms—such as rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, muscle tension, and stomach issues—are also common. If you notice these signs impacting your daily life, it may be time to seek professional support.
