Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Grand Rapids, MI.

While we all experience stress and anxiety to some degree, you're probably here because you feel like it is interfering with what you know could be a better life. You're right, and we can help. The key to our approach is rooted in our understanding that whatever is making your anxiety feel "extra" is probably about something beyond even your own awareness. We humans are very good at attaching our anxiety to something else in an effort to avoid even thinking about whatever it is that is truly making us anxious. Together, we can strengthen your understanding of what this is about for you, and your tendency to feel exaggerated stress and anxiety over smaller things should subside.

If you're struggling with anxious thoughts, you may find it hard to focus. The fight or flight alarm is going off in your brain, constantly sending you messages starting with "what if...." If worrying is keeping you trapped in a hamster wheel, tired, but unable to rest, you may find yourself turning to addictive substances or behaviours to cope.
