Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Dixon, CA.

Everyone experiences anxiety at some point, but for some the anxiety is so frequent or intense that it interferes with their lives or even triggers panic attacks. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help my clients get a sense of control over their own anxiety. We collaborate to learn skills to reduce the frequency or intensity of the anxious feelings, to tolerate the anxiety when it does occur so they can still function through it, and to practice habits that reduce stress and improve general mental health.

I work with clients using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, Narrative Therapy, Expressive Arts, and psychoeducation to address anxiety and stress. Many folks are experiencing extreme stress as a result of all we have experienced in the last year. I'm able to work with clients experiencing burnout, increased anxiety, and higher stress relying on neuroscience as the guide.

Anxious and stressed clients often experience rapid relief after working with me. While each client has their own unique path, they often learn how to create a daily lifestyle that supports calmness and decreases anxiety and stress in a proactive and preventive way. This comes about through developing habits of exercise, healthy food, and communication skills. My clients also learn how to recognize when they are beginning to become anxious or stressed. They develop the ability to calm themselves when this is neeeded. My clients also benefit from learning how to recognize and describe to others how they are feeling and what they are needing.
