Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Homestead, FL.

At Family Counseling we help patients achieve freedom from anxiety (phobias, fear of flying, panic and agoraphobia) may be facilitated by encouraging the examination of unsettled and profoundly ingrained conflicts, often of an unconscious nature that are often displace onto “safer” objects or sitatuations, by questioning the veracity and effectiveness of cognitive distortions that emanate from these conflicts, and by empowering the person to modify behaviors that perpetuate the disorders. We also use EMDR as a powerful tool to reprocess memories and experiences that can be attached to disturbing feelings and negative and limiting views of self and others.

Constant worrying and feeling stressed out does not have to be your normal! Anxiety tells us that we need to avoid, avoid, avoid. We think if we avoid the things we fear, then the anxiety will go away but that's actually how we inadvertently make our anxiety worse. Through CBT and ERP, you will learn the tools to face your anxiety and increase your tolerance for the feelings that come along with it. By facing your anxiety, you can make choices that lead to doing the things you love most. In therapy, you'll also learn coping skills and be able to express your worries in a supportive space.

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.

Stress is a normal part of everyone's lives, however, when left unmanaged it can become overwhelming. We help our clients to manage stress and reduce anxious symptoms by holding safe therapeutic space for them to work through difficult emotions and experiences in a supportive environment. Anxiety can be caused by many different factors and can be temporary or chronic. Processing traumatic experiences and gaining perspective into what is contributing to your symptoms can shed light on how to lessen the severity and have more good days than bad. We will utilize therapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in making progress.

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.

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.

Anxiety can be paralyzing for some people. It is important to find a therapist that has experience with anxiety and has used empirically based treatments that are effective. A form of CBT which is exposure therapy may help reduce fears from anxiety response. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is another form of CBT which has shown its effectiveness in treating this disorder. Some common factors of anxiety include frequent fatigue, avoidance of anxiety provoking stimulus, restlessness, irritbaility, difficulty focusing and concentration, sleep problems and muscle tension. Children may also experience anxiety and it may be portrayed differently than adults.
