Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Palm City, FL.

There is no way to live in this world without appropriate anxiety and an amount of "stress." But for many people, being afraid, scared or fearful has gone beyond the normal ideal and resulted in panic attacks, chronic anxiety, insomnia, obsessive fears and catastrophic thinking. Successful therapy with me will integrate insight and understanding with relaxation techniques, cognitive-behavioral techniques, meditation/auto suggestion/imaging and an individualized approach based on your history, presenting problems and situation. There is no reason to remain dysfunctional or live below the level of your best self when good psychotherapy can help you understand and resolve your conflicts.

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.

We hold our anxiety and stress in our body. We feel tension, gut problems, hot flashes, disrupted sleep and more.

When we have a coherent and fluid nervous system, we can do difficult things without feeling paralyzed by overwhelming fear.

Stress and anxiety are what I call "twin-sisters of destruction" to good mental health. While there are many stress management techniques such as thought stopping; relaxation and mindfulness, creative problem solving and positive self talk, I use a solution focused approached and help clients streamline all stressors into 2 categories of things they cannot change and things they have no control over which immediately provides stress relief and increases self-empowerment to handle problems that once seemed insurmountable.

Anxiety and stress can be so difficult to manage and seem to come out of nowhere. When we dig in, we will work to learn the core of the distress that you are experiencing. As we learn your life story, we may find that some of the distress is rooted in early childhood trauma and attachment wounding. We'll embrace all parts that make you "you" and learn about the challenging messages you may have grown up with that manifested into the distress you feel today. Anxiety and stress can be a messenger, an alarm telling you that it is time to heal experiences from earlier in life. In our work together, we'll use EMDR, Emotion Focused Therapy and Expressive Arts to help you heal!

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.
