Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Lake Placid, FL.

All of us experiences stress in our lives. So, why would we pursue counseling for stress management. First and foremost, excess stress leads to poor health from headaches and digestion problems to heart disease, high blood pressure and stroke if left unmanaged for years. It negatively impacts your appearance by contributing to lack of sleep, poor diet and decreased exercise. It decreases your productivity at home, school and on the job because you are distracted and less organized. In the end, chronic stress and anxiety decrease your overall level of happiness. But, there are effective stress management techniques which I can help you learn and incorporate into your daily life.

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.

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.
