Feeling overwhelmed, constantly worried or emotionally exhausted? Rafaa Center provides individual psychological assessment and therapy for adults dealing with stress, anxiety-related concerns and difficulties coping with everyday life.

When stress or anxiety starts affecting everyday life
You do not have to wait until things become unmanageable.
Work pressure, family responsibilities and constant worry can disrupt sleep, focus and relationships. Stress and anxiety may overlap, but they do not affect everyone in the same way.
At Rafaa Center, our psychologists explore your symptoms, daily challenges and possible causes before recommending an individual assessment and care plan.
Common signs of stress and anxiety
Constant worry: Your mind keeps revisiting problems or expecting the worst.
Sleep changes: You struggle to switch off or wake feeling unrested.
Restlessness: Feeling tense, uneasy or unable to relax.
Difficulty focusing: Normal tasks or decisions feel harder.
Emotional exhaustion: You feel irritable, drained or overwhelmed.
Physical tension: A racing heart, muscle tension or stomach discomfort.
If these symptoms persist, our psychological assessment service can help clarify what may be contributing to them.

How do I know if I need therapy for anxiety?
If worry, fear or related symptoms are persistent, distressing or interfering with daily functioning, a psychologist can assess your concerns. You do not need to self-diagnose before contacting Rafaa Center.
What is the difference between stress and anxiety?
Stress is often a response to identifiable demands or pressure, while anxiety can involve ongoing worry or fear even without an immediate stressor. They can overlap and require individual assessment.
