Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Pace, FL.

We have all felt stressed, nervous, and anxious at times. Individual counseling sessions can help you confront and manage your stress and anxiety symtoms, overcome feelings of helplessness, and understand fears and triggers that leave you feeling out of control. Counseling can teach you relaxation and stress reduction exercises to help you develop better coping mechanisms.

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.

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.

More than 18% of Americans will suffer with anxiety. Symptoms can be debilitating making life difficult. Less than 34% will receive treatment for their anxiety. Again, CBT is found to be highly effective method of treatment giving long term relief from many symptoms. For many adults and adolescents symptoms go undiagnosed and without treatment. Individual and group therapy are available at Next Chapter Counseling.

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.

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.

With a traumatic childhood and a career as former professional athlete, I know firsthand what it's like to experience stress and anxiety. However, I also discovered the faith, strength, and perseverance necessary to overcome and achieve breakthrough. I would be honored to learn your story and help you achieve greater peace, resiliency, and purpose.
