Virtual sensory overload therapy in Virginia Beach can help to reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, and tension that accompany living in a flight path. Lifebulb in Virginia Beach offers a wide selection of qualified teletherapists who are qualified to treat sensory overload and jet noise anxiety support.
The “Sound of Freedom” and shockwaves associated with the F/A-18 Hornets are a common occurrence in the Virginia Beach area. Their frequent flights, while associated with liberty and power, can also be anxiety-inducing and overwhelming. They can cause sensory overload. That is where there are too many inputs for the brain to process at once, so it triggers a “fight or flight” response. This feeds into flight path anxiety and, if continuous, chronic stress. Lifebulb’s Virginia Beach anxiety therapist can use evidence-proven therapeutic strategies such as somatic therapy for chronic stress and misophonia and nose sensitivity therapy to help reduce these feelings of fear and tension. A virtual therapist can help you to find tranquility amid the “Sound of Freedom” in Virginia Beach.

Chronic Hypervigilance
Living in a flight path can be triggering for trauma survivors and people with PTSD. The sounds of the jets can contribute to a state of chronic hypervigilance where a person is constantly on the lookout for threats, even if there are none. The body is often on high alert and in a “fight or flight” response. This can take both a physical and mental toll. Trauma-informed therapy approaches can help to treat chronic hypervigilance and find tranquility amongst the feelings of chaos.

Misophonia and Noise Sensitivity
Jet noise can also have a large impact on individuals who are neurodivergent. Some individuals who are neurodivergent may experience misophonia or noise sensitivity, where certain sounds trigger an emotional and physical reaction from them. The sounds often trigger feelings of disgust, anger, or even fear. A misophonia and noise sensitivity therapist can help with sound desensitization.
