Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Green Level, NC.

Anxiety and stress are part of being human, but are certainly not always easy to cope with. I help people strengthen their abilities to cope with life's challenges, enabling them to better work through present and future obstacles. Anxiety can result from ongoing situations, chemical imbalances, or past hurts. I use mindfulness based approaches, cognitive behavioral approaches, and strengths based approaches to best address each person's hurdles. I also help people reduce the amount of stress or anxiety they have in their lives through a combination of psychotherapy and coaching.

Anxiety can take away your personal power at the most important moments and start to have too much control over your behavior. Over time, chronic stress can break down a healthy view of yourself. Starting from our first session, I will support your understanding of anxiety, its biological effects, and its impact on your relationships. I will support you to build on developing insight and develop habits that support anxiety and stress reduction. At the end of therapy, you will have a clear plan for sustained control over anxiety and chronic stress. I'm reachable through phone for a free 20-minute consultation to further discuss your needs and answer any questions about my therapy approach.

Stress. Everyone has it, and everyone has to deal with it, but just because it's common doesn't mean that it isn't a big deal. Whether it's stress from work, stress from parenting, or stress from relationships, there are things we can do to help decrease the effects of stress. Anxiety and stress are often felt in our bodies, which is why I take a body-based approach to them. Of course, we work on some deep breathing, but we also look at other ways of convincing your brain that you are safe. Modalities like yoga, brainspotting, and polyvagal (or somatic) work can all help decrease that felt response of anxiety.
