Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Adamstown, PA.

Some anxiety and stress in our lives is normal and unavoidable. There is no way to rid it from your life entirely. However, problems arise when it becomes excessive. It can take over your life and prevent you from doing the things you want to do. Let's work together to identify the sources of your stress and anxiety, learn to reduce its intensity and frequency and to adjust your reaction to the anxiety so when it does occur so you can go about living your life to the fullest.

To help you manage your stress and anxiety symptoms, we start with understanding the nature and patterns of your symptoms in relation to environmental triggers, traumatic life events, and unhelpful thinking patterns that influence your daily perspective. Using a collaborative alliance, we will look for better ways to manage both your external stressors and internal reactions. A cognitive-behavioral approach offers practical methods to understand how thought patterns influence emotional reactions and behaviors. By redirecting and re-framing your thoughts with alternative thoughts, you can experience a reduction in unpleasant emotions and an increase in personal effectiveness.

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.

Anxiety is often a sign of other, more deeply rooted issues. You may experience the anxiety as the primary issue, or may think that it is the primary issue, or that there is nothing more to the situation than your anxiety, but in reality, oftentimes there are underlying issues that are causing the anxiety, or that are making the anxiety worse. Therapy can help to bring those issues to the surface.
