Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in East Bernard, TX.

We can access that power by making a conscious decision every day to surrender our anxiety to him. Trust God to take care of you, but also to guide you to others, including friends, clergy, and treatment professionals, who can help you walk this difficult path.

As a high-achieving man, anxiety and stress comes with the territory. And you wouldn’t be where you are today in life unless you’ve handled it pretty well until now. But most successful men find that anxiety eventually impacts them. Whether it’s slowly been eating at you for years, or you’ve just experienced your first panic attack, you’re not going crazy. There are solutions, and this can get better. I help men learn practical stress-management techniques, but I don’t stop there. I also help them identify the root causes of their stress and anxiety, and use research-proven EMDR therapy to systematically target them. The results are measurable, evidenced by deeper calm and clarity of mind.

I provide practical tools to regain control over overwhelming thoughts and emotions. Through cognitive-behavioral techniques and dialectal behavior therapy, clients can learn to identify triggers, challenge negative patterns, and cultivate a sense of calm. I collaborate with clients to develop personalized strategies that empower them to navigate anxiety-inducing situations, ultimately fostering greater resilience and emotional well-being.

Therapist will work with client to explore and identify the root issues that are fueling issues related to stress and anxiety. Therapist and client will create a new and healthy daily routine that promotes balance and emphasizes joy. This new routine will consist of self care practices, engagement with hobbies, social interaction, and incorporating a rage of coping mechanisms.

I approach counseling for anxiety and stress from a Cognitive Behavioral perspective. I think it is vital to examine the interplay among your environment, your relationships, your daily routine, your emotions, and your thoughts when it comes to treating anxiety and stress. Treatment often involves making internal or external changes to these aspects of your life. The hope is that changes to one part of your life will produce changes in the other areas.
