Anxiety and stress are a normal part of life and can come from both positive and negative aspects of life. Changing, moving away from, or coping with negativity is one aspect of anxiety and stress management. But also learning to accept the reality that anxiety and stress are a part of even in positive things, like intimate relationships or a fulfilling career, is equally important. Health psychology is about reducing "bad" and embracing "good" stress. The better friends you are with stress, the less damaging it is to your mental and physical health. Curiosity about and gratitude for your stress responses are crucial to effectively managing them.

Did you know that anxiety disorders are the number one mental health disorder in the United States? Nearly 40 million American adults experience an anxiety disorder every year, but only about 1/3 of those people seek treatment. The good news is that of those who seek treatment, many recover.

Therapy is one of proven ways to treat anxiety- with therapy, you can begin to regain control of your life, feel calmer, and live the life you want to live instead of the life anxiety is making you live!

Anxiety is rough- you likely know this. You might think "why is this happening to me? Why does this phase me like it does? This isn't anything big." You also may be under intense stress and perhaps even intensely traumatic situations and just now starting to feel the impact. I offer helpful practical tools to deal with anxiety in how you think and how you breath. But I don't stop there as those things are often un-effective, as you may have already found, if not partnered with a deep understanding of how to work with, on an emotional level, messy feelings.

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!

Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists.
