Feeling stressed and anxious can take away from your quality of life greatly. You deserve to feel free from these symptoms. I can help you assess what things are triggering your anxiety and adding to your overall stress level. Finding new ways to handle situations will allow you to feel in control again. Once you learn the causes and tools to control your anxiety, there lies relief.

Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorder as well as EMDR (Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing) to accelerate symptom relief from anxiety, stress and panic disorder. Somatic Experiencing is also incorporated to promote mind-body connections and autonomic regulation for heightened nervous system response.

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.

Anxiety is future! A futuristic threat. Your mind will race, often trying to determine the threat, making irrational thoughts feel rational, as if a certain scenario could actually happen or play out. Using either EMDR or CBT I will help you grab a hold of your thoughts and reframe them with facts.

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.

Anxiety and stress happen when you are faced with a problem in which your tried and true coping mechanisms don't work.

You can not avoid stress but you can ensure that you deal with it effectively and quickly.

Anxiety and stress are a part of our everyday life. However, these two issues do not have to be debilitating. They are not our enemies and can often times push us towards reaching our goals. I believe that it is important to learn how to cope with stressors that come from our relationships, our jobs or children, etc. Sometimes, its as simple as learning a life skill and re-framing our thinking.
