Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Speers, PA.

My approach for helping people with anxiety and stress is to look at any thoughts and behaviors you have that are contributing to it. Anxiety and stress are often the result of how people see themselves and the world around them. I would help you change your perceptions, which will reduce your anxiety and stress. There are also healthy changes you can make to your behavior that will reduce anxiety and stress. Exercising, meditation, deep breathing and mindfulness are great coping skills for reducing anxiety and stress. Deep breathing and mindfulness are great tools to use when you are experiencing anxiety and stress. Meditation is a tool that works for you even when you aren’t meditating.

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.

This is an area of my specialty and I have varied hypnotherapy techniques that work towards putting you into a healthier frame of mind so you feel more self-control and calm. I, as your hypnotherapist will do most of the "hard work", while you as the client do not need to "help" the process of "going under" or be a master meditator, nor feel guilty about not being 'perfect'. If you are nervous or can't relax, that's ok too as a lot has developed of the traditional 1950's clinical hypnosis techniques, where one had to practically fall asleep! Come as you are, I've got you! (Even if you can only spare an hour in your car/ office/ living room and are stressed already about this process!)

Do people tell you to stop worrying and can't seem to understand that you simply can't stop? Do you have trouble sleeping because of your anxiety and worry? Let me help. Treating the worry that results from anxiety and stress is my specialty. I have published over 25 articles in scientific journals on worry and worked with many individuals on their chronic, uncontrollable worrying. My approach combines principles from many theories to help you manage your anxiety and stress without worrying so much, understand the function worry serves for you, and treating the underlying issues that may have started and be maintaining your worry.

Anxiety related issues are the most common reason why people seek counseling. You are not alone! Whatever your anxiety, you will be treated with respect. Remember this: anxiety doesn't happen to you, it happens from you. That's the bad news: you're doing it to yourself. What's the good news? You're doing it to yourself! That means that you can learn to stop doing it. Come in and let's talk and I'll give you some practical solutions for dealing with stress and anxiety.

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.
