Based on a recent article in Forbes Health, young adults 18 to 25 in the U. S. experience the highest rates of mental illness at 36. 2%, followed by those ages 26 to 49 at 29. 4%. Adults ages 50 and over are at almost 14%. That's us. Anxiety isn't just reserved for just the young or the old, it does not discriminate.

I want to further surprise you to learn that anxiety disorders such as generalized anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, and panic disorder are some of the most commonly diagnosed mental health conditions in the U. S. affecting 42.5 million adults.

My guest today is known as The Anxiety Healer and has found the sweet spot on how to use social media to connect with those suffering with anxiety so that they feel seen, heard, and most importantly, understood. Alison Cepenaro, licensed therapist, author, podcast host, and holistic healer specializes in cognitive behavior therapy and mindfulness based positive psychology for adolescents and adults with anxiety disorders. She is a CEO and founder of the Anxiety Healer Community, boasting over 550, 000 members on Instagram and TikTok.

Alison also spreads awareness and holistic healing methods for anxiety. Her book, “The Anxiety Healer's Guide”, offers a comprehensive toolkit for overcoming anxiety. And through her podcast, “The Anxiety Chicks”, Allison destigmatizes mental health and shares her journey to recovery, providing a judgment free community globally.

If you’re experiencing anxiety, whether it be smaller moments or through the lens of anxiety disorder, Alison will help guide us toward healing today.
