Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Canal Winchester, OH.

Over the years I have discovered that most of our anxiety is rooted in the way that we think. It is my job, as your therapist, to help you identify those negative thought patterns and start to change them. As you start to develop awareness of the negative thoughts and dialogue you have in your head you are then able to challenge those beliefs. As you do you will find that your levels of anxiety and stress will come back down to manageable levels.

Stress and anxiety are experienced by mind and the body. Anxiety is a warning signal that something is needing to be addressed.

The first step in managing overcoming anxiety is identifying the symptoms of anxiety. Types of symptoms among other can include: worrying or obsessive thoughts or actions, rapid heart beat, feeling dizzy or lightheaded, panic attacks, anxiety associated with memories of past traumatic events, or fear of having a anxiety attack if you go to a certain place out in public. We will first give you some tools to effectively reduce the physiological symptoms of anxiety (relaxation training, biofeedback, or heart math). Then we will deal with the underlying thoughts and triggers associated with the anxiety through EMDR, EFT, and/or Cognitive therapy (CBT) and reduce/eliminate those triggers.
