Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Rowlett, TX.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming and there is often a tendency to avoid situations that a person feels will cause further or increased anxiety. Interestingly, when a person is able to address or move toward what causes them anxiety, they move toward the answer to the feelings or sensations they are experiencing. The answers lie in approaching what cause us anxiety rather than avoiding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gently assists a person in learning to approach what causes anxiety and find the answers to overcome the feelings of being overwhelmed.

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.

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.

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.

Al of us worry and get scared from time to time. But those with anxiety may feel consumed by fears of things that might seem irrational to others. It can be hard to relate to these concerns, and as a result, many people don’t know how to best help someone with anxiety. With anxiety, you don’t necessarily see what the person is dealing with. So it’s important to be sensitive to what the person with anxiety is going through, even if it doesn’t make sense to you. We can teach you, through God's. Word, how to implement sound, healthy changes into your lifestyle that will take enormous burdens off of your psyche and help you to heal.

A multifaceted treatment approach for anxiety and stress in counseling involves combining the cognitive restructuring of CBT, the mindfulness practices of MBSR, the tangible tools of relaxation techniques, the systematic exposure of Exposure Therapy, and the forward-focused strength-building of Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. Tailoring these approaches to individual needs creates a comprehensive and effective strategy for alleviating anxiety and stress, empowering clients to foster lasting well-being.

The goal of therapy is to stop the behaviors that have had devastating effects on you and those around you and to create more of what you do want in your life; healthy relationships, meaningful time with family and friends, increased productivity at work, feeling comfortable in your own skin, and sustained peace of mind. We help provide a safe environment without judgement to allow healing to begin.

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.

I practice psychotherapy specializing in working with adolescents & adults in the treatment of anxiety, anxiety disorders, and trauma. This includes Generalized Anxiety Disorder, perfectionistic thinking, panic attacks, social anxiety, & anxiety caused by past traumas. Anxiety is often experienced together with depression, stress, significant life changes, relationship issues, chronic medical illness or pain, or a desire to improve your quality of life.

Clients presenting for relief from anxiety and stress may achieve their goals via cognitive-behavioral therapy, or CBT. Lowering anxiety often entails replacing irrational thinking and feeling with better thoughts and beneficial feelings- and consequently, different behaviors become possible that are beneficial for change. Clients can achieve mental discipline and more control over their feelings than they typically believe is possible when they first come in for counseling. Emotional intelligence is a goal that can be achieved by understanding what self differentiation means and how it is a valuable part of the family systems theory approach that I use with clients.

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.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they dont treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people dont 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.

As a pastor, I've seen firsthand the impact that anxiety and stress can have on individuals and families. Thankfully, the Bible provides wisdom and guidance on how to manage these difficult emotions.

As your pastor and counselor, I can help you apply this biblical wisdom to your life and work with you to develop practical ways to manage stress and anxiety. Don't let these emotions control you any longer – let's work together to find peace and calm in the midst of life's challenges.
