We all have some level of stress & anxiety that is often experienced as fear & worry. For some, however, the anxiety can become overwhelming. This may involve a specific stressor or an increase in life stressors, a phobia, generalized anxiety or even panic symptoms. It is important to identify what might be triggering the anxiety as well as any predisposing causes. I work with individuals to explore the roots of negative thoughts & beliefs & then begin the process of altering them. I also assist in sorting through ineffective coping strategies & replacing them with new & more helpful strategies. This process helps provide relief by addressing both the anxiety symptoms & the underlying cause.

Many of our clients have stress in their lives. Stressors can include parent- child conflicts, marital conflict, relationships, or stress caused by an event in their lives.

Our goal as therapists is to help clients find ways to alleviate or minimalize stress and anxiety, and to help them achieve positive mental health.

Then we will work to tackle each of those three areas in order to create the change that they need and/or are hoping for.

I see this as the "common cold" of mental health issues that every client struggles with on some level.

I teach relaxation, deep breathing, and meditation practices to be used at home to decrease the impact of stress and anxiety on a client's life. Finally, I help clients identify and rid themselves of unhealthy relationships that may be creating or maintaining the anxiety.

It can be very difficult to admit, as a Christian that we are suffering from anxiety and stress. That is where all change begins. Admitting that something is wrong.

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.
