Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Pelican Bay, TX.

Everyone experiences anxiety at some point, but for some the anxiety is so frequent or intense that it interferes with their lives or even triggers panic attacks. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help my clients get a sense of control over their own anxiety. We collaborate to learn skills to reduce the frequency or intensity of the anxious feelings, to tolerate the anxiety when it does occur so they can still function through it, and to practice habits that reduce stress and improve general mental health.

We hold our anxiety and stress in our body. We feel tension, gut problems, hot flashes, disrupted sleep and more. I work with anxiety and stress by helping individuals learn and develop tools to re-regulate their nervous system. When we have a coherent and fluid nervous system, we can do difficult things without feeling paralyzed by overwhelming fear.

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.

Anxiety and stress are a normal part of life. We tend to experience stress when we are responding to a potential threat. We then tend to experience anxiety in reaction to stress. The issues arise when the feelings of anxiety and stress get out of control. I like to offer physical tools to help like exercise, and breathing techniques including breath prayers and tapping. I also provide my clients with scriptures and prayers to meditate on to help take you the worried, distracted thoughts that hep fuel your stressful and anxious feelings.

Our culture breeds anxiety & stress! We help our clients develop coping skills and stress management strategies through talk therapy, biofeedback/neurofeedback (BFB/NFB) to reduce and, over time, eliminate anxious worry and paralyzing stress. Many of our clients are uncomfortable with taking medications to control their symptoms (due to side effects or fear of dependency - which is a real possibility) and opt for BFB/NFB to help reduce their stress while they learn new coping skills & strategies. The goal of treatment is not the avoidance of stress, but the reduction in levels of stress experienced by the client & the elimination of behaviors that produce stress & anxiety

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.
