Anxiety and Stress can be addressed through the use of a two pronged approach - 1) learning how to use practical and accessible tools to manage symptoms, and 2) identifying, understanding and addressing the underlying causes of anxiety and stress. Often there is some type of trauma that has been experienced, but hasn't been integrated so that healing can take place. We will work together to find and heal from the underlying causes of the anxiety, depression and stress.

We look together at the areas of your life that are causing you stress and anxiety. For most people, this is a huge aspect of living. Finding ways to reduce such stress and anxiety becomes a major focus of our work. We will examine your work, your family life, your relationships, your ability to function day to day, and the kinds of things you already do to cope with anxiety and stress. Developing strategies to deal more effectively with anxiety and stress is a major goal in counseling.

It can be really hard to talk about anxiety. You're reading the words of someone who suffered with severe anxiety from before the age of five. While depression largely looks backwards, and lacks a plan, anxiety looks forward and invents a future that almost never comes to pass. But, anxiety holds a little known secret that, once revealed, is a game-changer for anxiety sufferers! Too many people struggle needlessly with anxiety every day. It can be difficult to imagine life without it. It can feel like there's no hope. Fear and hope are powerful emotions! Be encouraged to take just a small step and reach out to someone who knows the steps to cultivate hope and build motivation to overcome!

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.

Anxiety and stress are so common they seem like an unavoidable part of the modern lifestyle. However excessive anxiety, stress, and worry can start to destroy your peace of mind, lessen your confidence, and impact your physical health. I provide a therapy process where the pattern of how anxiety is created in your life is understood and new tools to stop the physical and emotional patterns of anxiety are made habitual. The end result is having your peace of mind back so you can focus on the things that matter most to you.
