There are few things worse than anxiety and stress. This may present itself as a base level constant companion that is tolerable but painful, or it may present itself as an almost debilitating feeling of impending doom. However stress or anxiety presents itself in your life, it sucks. Anxiety has been described as "future fear," which makes it particularly asinine, because it can seem impossible to pinpoint.

Anxiety and Stess: I work with my clients to help them manage, reduce, and eliminate their stress and anxiety. EFT Tapping is one of the primary techniques that I use with my clients to help them with their stress and anxiety. I help them to find out what is underneath the stress and anxiety, often it is a hidden fear or limiting belief system. Tapping is one of the absolute best mind body clearing techniques for stress, anxiety, and overwhelm. It works incredibly well to rewire the subconscious mind and calm the body's nervous system. My clients have experienced profound results with EFT Tapping. The benefits include feeling more relaxed, present, happier, calmer, and more joyful.

I believe that there are certain levels of Anxiety and Stress that can be a positive influence for each of us.

I will help you address anxiety and stress by taking small, manageable steps that will eventually lead to big changes. I take a gentle cognitive-behavioral approach to helping clients gradually overcome anxiety. I will help you identify beliefs that keep you stuck, and challenge thoughts that perpetuate these unhelpful ideas.

With support, we will change this cycle by developing corrective experiences that promote new beliefs and ways of being.

Lao Tzu said, "If you're anxious, it's because you're living in the future. If you're at peace, it's because you're living in the present." Often anxiety looks like leaving the present moment and projecting into the future, trying to think 10 steps ahead about things that haven't happened yet. This future thinking leads to stress in the present. I teach clients how to tune into their emotions (including anxiety), their bodies (as an anchor to the present moment) and move through anxiety as it arises using their breath. Anxiety and stress don't have to run your life. I'm here to support you in regulating your anxiety and stress by staying with yourself in the present moment.

Living with anxiety and panic attacks can be extremely painful and effect every area in a persons life. Every day can be a private battle living with anxiety. Since humans feel anxiety, we can't get rid of ever feeling anxiety again. We can, however, change the experience we have with anxiety to have a different outcome. Counseling for anxiety and panic attacks explores how anxiety shows up in your life, the roots, and discovering strategies for learning how to live a meaningful life.

Anxiety and stress can be debilitating. The severity may range from mild to extreme. The type of anxiety you may be dealing with is widely varied (social or certain situations to name a few). In my work, I first determine the degree to which you are experiencing anxiety or stress. We will then look at the underlying cause for your emotional experience. Depending on the cause, I may utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, talk therapy, relaxation techniques, skill building, reframing and emotion regulation to assist you in your quest to find healing and balance.

When the pressure from family, jobs and relationships gets control of you, overwhelming stress and anxiety can result making it most difficult to function in your world.

Anxiety is about the future! "What if I.....?" "And what if she.....?" Think of it as stage fright. "They wont like me." et cetera. You torture yourself with low level probabilities about furute negative consequences to your actions. It can be immobilizing and very self-limiting. I can teach you to devleop the skills of mindfullness in daily life. When you live more fully in this moment, you are less caught up in the possible failures of the next moment. This may sound easy but it is not. It requires weeks of concerted practice to break free of the habit of thinking about what might happen next. But when you do, you open yourself up to a more peaceful existence.

We can use mindfulness techniques to work with difficult emotions or a lack of emotions day to day. Exercise, diet, sleep and many daily activities can be utilized to help with difficult times.

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 addressing anxiety and stress, I work with you to externalize these experiences, helping you see them as influences rather than defining aspects of who you are. Together, we’ll examine how anxiety and stress have woven themselves into your life, noticing the stories they tell about limitations or fears. By identifying your own values, strengths, and responses to these influences, we create openings for new ways of engaging with situations that previously felt overwhelming. This approach fosters a sense of agency, allowing you to navigate life’s pressures with resilience, clarity, and a greater sense of calm.

I use talk therapy, CBT, and EMDR to approach the treatment process for clients suffering from anxiety and stress. With anxiety, EMDR can prove to be key because it allows the brain to search the root causes of a person's anxiety and find healing at a base level. This is much more affective than simply treating symptoms of anxiety. Once the root cause is discovered, relief will naturally occur. However, it is also important to address the present symptoms and help clients make changes in their lives to alleviate anxiety and develop healthy coping skills.
