Everyone experiences some level of anxiety and stress. When it disrupts your daily life and becomes so distressing that you are not enjoying your life anymore, it is time to seek treatment.

Anxiety may come from past trauma or traumatic experiences in your life. Stress is a part of daily living. They are different but stress can build up over time and cause anxiety. Together we will look at how anxiety and stress "shows up" in your life and in your body. We will find out what triggers cause your stress and/or anxiety. Then we will gradually find ways to reduce and eliminate one or both.

Everyone feels anxiety at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although anxiety can feel debilitating, it is treatable. People with anxiety don’t always share the same symptoms, they vary from person to person. Therapy will help you to reclaim your life and function in a chronically stressful world.

Anxiety and stress are completely natural emotions that all of us face at one time or another. Anxiety can actually be very helpful - it makes us want to get things done! Stress can work for us in much the same way - it can motivate us or alert us when we are in situations that may not be the healthiest for us. The problem is when these natural emotions "go off the rails" and begin to adversely impact how we feel and function. My job as your therapist is to help you get the tools that you need so you can take charge of your anxiety and stress and help you put them back in a place where they are healthy and beneficial.
