Anxiety can develop due to multiple factors, including:

  • Genetic predisposition and family history of anxiety or other mental health conditions

  • Brain chemistry and neurotransmitter imbalances

  • Personality traits, such as high sensitivity or perfectionism

  • Environmental stressors, including trauma, abuse, or major life changes

  • Chronic medical conditions or substance use

Understanding these factors allows clinicians to create personalized treatment plans tailored to each client.
