Stress is a "funny" thing in the fact that you can be under it and not be aware of bring stressed. This type of stress is very subtle and dangerous.

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.

Anxiety can affect your life in so many ways. Anxiety can keep you from reaching out for that relationship, or attempting for a better job. Anxiety can be healthy, but when you have too much it reduces your life. I really understand anxiety and stress, and can give you the tools and self-esteem to roam freely though this world, being all that you were meant to be. Let's do this!

We hold our anxiety and stress in our body. We feel tension, gut problems, hot flashes, disrupted sleep and more. I work with anxiety and stress by helping individuals learn and develop tools to re-regulate their nervous system. When we have a coherent and fluid nervous system, we can do difficult things without feeling paralyzed by overwhelming fear.

Anxiety and stress can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face them alone. My approach to treatment is holistic and empowering, blending evidence-based techniques with personalized care to help you regain control and peace of mind. Together, we’ll identify triggers, develop practical strategies for managing stress, and uncover the underlying causes of your anxiety. In our work, you’ll build resilience, improve emotional balance, and learn tools to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and calm.

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.

I work with my clients to develop a treatment plan that is specific to his/her level of anxiety and stress. Working with the client and using an eclectic approach we identify the triggers of the anxiety or stress. We are then able to create a treatment plan focused on extinguishing or minimizing the anxiety or stress. Mindfulness activities, breathing exercises, art therapy, guided meditation, Buddha boards, kinetic sand trays, crystals are some of the tools I teach my clients how to use, and they are able to use these tools at home, work, or school with relative ease.

Anxiety in and of itself is not always a negative thing. What is important to consider is the severity of the anxiety and its source. For example, a little anxiety may be necessary to help a person feel better prepared for an upcoming test or exam. In that case, anxiety can serve as a reminder or a motivating factor. Anxiety can at times be severe to the point of debilitating someone and interferes with activities of daily living.
