Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Ocala, FL.

Who isn’t affected by anxiety and stress in our fast-paced 21st century world?? Not only can the “what ifs” of life keep one awake at night, it’s also the doubt that you have what it takes to meet life’s challenges. But it is not a life sentence. Counseling can help identify your fears, measure those fears against reality and equip you with behavior modification tools so that you are not controlled by the “what ifs” of life. COR Counseling is a stress-free zone, so come and find that you do have what it takes to rise above.

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.

Anxiety, stress, panic disorder, OCD and several other emotional and physical symptoms can be debilitating and interfere with a full and happy life. I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy as well as ERP (Exposure Response Prevention for OCD) to help individuals manage and overcome or reduce these stress symptoms to create a life that more enjoyable and optimistic without that fear that normally accompanies these symptoms in daily life.

Are you nervous a lot of the time? Isn’t it uncomfortable? And it doesn’t help to just be told to ‘calm down’. I am a highly trained clinical psychologist with years of both academic and clinical experience. I truly empathize with your emotional state(s) and can assist in improving your overall quality of life. How might this look? First, when you and I meet, you get support and time to just chat. This in itself can begin to lessen one’s stress. Together we can locate exactly what is making you anxious, and why. And then you and I create ways of decreasing your nervousness, and increasing your comfort level! Life can start to feel better when one’s anxiety is properly attended to.

There are many reasons we have anxiety and overwhelming stress. Some are known and some unknown. Either way they can be managed. With healthy coping and self awareness you can change your life. If you suffer from ruminating thoughts, panic, poor sleep, high self-doubt, or perfectionism call me. When our mind becomes a master of us instead of us mastering our mind we loose control and attempt to grasp for it anywhere we can. I will teach you mindfulness techniques and self awareness to cope with anxiety and stress. I have 23+ years of studying and teaching the science and philosophy of yoga that informs my wisdom on treating anxiety. Nothing is more important than your health. Call today.

Stress is a normal part of everyone's lives, however, when left unmanaged it can become overwhelming. We help our clients to manage stress and reduce anxious symptoms by holding safe therapeutic space for them to work through difficult emotions and experiences in a supportive environment. Anxiety can be caused by many different factors and can be temporary or chronic. Processing traumatic experiences and gaining perspective into what is contributing to your symptoms can shed light on how to lessen the severity and have more good days than bad. We will utilize therapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in making progress.

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.
