Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Tempe, AZ.

I utilize behavioral therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness tools to help you reduce and manage anxiety and stress and do the things you want to be doing that you value and give meaning to your life, without avoiding them. I also work with people on OCD solutions using ERP, ACT, CBT, and solution oriented approaches.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they don’t treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people don’t believe it or you! Imagine if you can trick the brain into changing without you telling your conscious mind that you are changing it? Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists.

In my approach to anxiety and stress treatment, I utilize a blend of CBT, mindfulness techniques, and stress management strategies to help clients gain control over their symptoms. My focus is on creating a calming and non-judgmental space where clients can explore the root causes of their anxiety and stress. By teaching practical tools for relaxation, cognitive restructuring, and emotional regulation, clients learn to reduce their anxiety levels and respond more adaptively to stressors. This process not only alleviates immediate symptoms but also equips clients with long-term skills for maintaining mental health and achieving a balanced, fulfilling life.

Everyone feels anxiety at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although anxiety can feel debilitating, it is treatable. People with anxiety don’t always share the same symptoms, they vary from person to person. Therapy will help you to reclaim your life and function in a chronically stressful world.

Are you a hard-working guy being crushed by stress? Stress, anxiety, burnout, and addiction are all predictable outcomes when stress gets too high. In my experience, men are often misunderstood and under-appreciated... even by their own wives and children. The good news is that you don’t have to slowly suffer and fade off into the sunset. You were created for more than this, and even strong men need support from time to time. You’ve shown your grit through the ups and downs of life. You’ve already been through a lot. But getting professional help shows a different kind of toughness, and if right now you’re buckling under the weight of life, it’s time to take the next step. I’m here to help.

Are you nervous a lot of the time? Isn’t it uncomfortable? And it doesn’t help to just be told to ‘calm down’. I am a highly trained clinical psychologist with years of both academic and clinical experience. I truly empathize with your emotional state(s) and can assist in improving your overall quality of life. How might this look? First, when you and I meet, you get support and time to just chat. This in itself can begin to lessen one’s stress. Together we can locate exactly what is making you anxious, and why. And then you and I create ways of decreasing your nervousness, and increasing your comfort level! Life can start to feel better when one’s anxiety is properly attended to.

I provide anxiety counseling in Gilbert, AZ. While we all experience some level of anxiety and stress, there is certainly a point when the feelings of anxiety and stress becomes suffocating and overwhelming. When worries keep you up late at night and you feel as though you can’t escape your thoughts and feelings of dread throughout the day, this can lead to misery and desperation. My approach to anxiety counseling is help you figure out what is leading to these thoughts and worries, and work to process through situations that may be at the root of your anxiety, as well as provide you with the tools and resources to manage the symptoms more effectively.

As a high-achieving man, anxiety and stress comes with the territory. And you wouldn’t be where you are today in life unless you’ve handled it pretty well until now. But most successful men find that anxiety eventually impacts them. Whether it’s slowly been eating at you for years, or you’ve just experienced your first panic attack, you’re not going crazy. There are solutions, and this can get better. I help men learn practical stress-management techniques, but I don’t stop there. I also help them identify the root causes of their stress and anxiety, and use research-proven EMDR therapy to systematically target them. The results are measurable, evidenced by deeper calm and clarity of mind.
