An insightful guide to recognizing anxiety’s top ten disguises in our lives—from renowned clinical psychologist, trauma researcher, and ordained minister Dr. Thema Bryant

Many of us feel the effects of anxiety in our daily lives—whether we feel afraid, hopeless, despairing, or otherwise suffer from dis-ease. But until we pause and reflect on what’s really going on, we can’t understand it, uproot it, and heal from it in a deep and meaningful way. 

In this wise and practical guide, Dr. Thema Bryant brings together clinical experience, psychological research, and spiritual wisdom to shed light on this common challenge and help readers feel less alone in their struggle to heal. 

You’ll discover the ten masks of anxiety, which include: 

• Perfectionism
• Procrastination
• Somatic Complaints
• Trust Issues
• Overextending and Lack of Boundaries
• Emotional Numbing or Dysregulation
• Hypervigilance
• Self-Sabotage
• Settling
• Shame

Told through diverse and relatable stories, practical insights, and meditation or prayer prompts, this is a book to read, reflect on, and share with fellow cojourners who are also on the path to unmasking anxiety and truly healing from it.
