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 is supposed to be an ally. It is a primal emotional experience that is supposed to help you avoid danger. It forecasts a potential future, but in the modern world, that future may not exist. The dirty trick of anxiety is often the worrying about worrying about worrying about worrying about worry. Stopping the cycle through increased understanding of the biological systems involved in anxiety and learning how to change the bodies reactions begins the process of turning anxiety back into an ally instead of an enemy you have to fight.

In working with stress and anxiety you can learn skills to help you recognize and manage your emotions. This will allow you to learn to respond rather than react to your stressors.

Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorder as well as EMDR (Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing) to accelerate symptom relief from anxiety, stress and panic disorder. Somatic Experiencing is also incorporated to promote mind-body connections and autonomic regulation for heightened nervous system response.

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.

Sometimes that stress is like the water we swim in--we may not notice our stress level until we are feeling overwhelmed and on the raw edge of an angry outburst or the helpless feeling of hopeless collapse.

Anxiety and stress are related, but not the same. Anxiety is a fear of what may happen. Anxiety is imagining what you most desire NOT to happen. When we trap emotions and fears inside, the energy gets stuck and can manifest as anxiety. Identification of what you are holding onto or fearing is the way through anxiety. We don't get rid of anxiety. We simply learn how to choose better coping mechanism. www.melissaquiter.com

Anxiety and stress -- ah, how I know you both so well. Let's call them the twins as they tend to accompany so many of us this way on our journey in life. My goal in therapy is to help people have a better understand of what makes the twins (anxiety and stress) act out. What are the triggers in life, in their body, interpersonally that cause them to become unruly? These triggers are trying to teach us something. The question is what. For some, it may be linked to self esteem. For others it may be resources they need to engage to help fulfill their dreams. We then address better coping techniques to help people move past these difficulties and onto their dreams. We also use biofeedback.

The tough news: anxiety disorders affect nearly 30% of adults at some point in their lives. The good news: anxiety disorders are highly treatable! Anxiety is a physiological, behavioral, and psychological reaction; although treatment looks different from person to person, we’ll target all three areas to make sure we address the root of the issue.

Everyone experiences anxiety at some point, but for some the anxiety is so frequent or intense that it interferes with their lives or even triggers panic attacks. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help my clients get a sense of control over their own anxiety. We collaborate to learn skills to reduce the frequency or intensity of the anxious feelings, to tolerate the anxiety when it does occur so they can still function through it, and to practice habits that reduce stress and improve general mental health.

Anxiety can be a debilitating condition that manifests in any number of behaviors including such things as isolating, and OCD rituals, to name a few. Many people who experience high anxiety have panic attacks which literally create a physical response that often mimics a heart attack. Panic attacks are terrifying and can sometimes occur without a trigger. When that happens, the fear of the panic attack is as intense as the anxiety itself which often causes more frequent and intense panic. The root of anxiety is fear. There are a number of therapeutic modalities that have scientific evidence that supports their effectiveness. I work to discover the cause and then find the right modality.

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.

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.

I use a multifaceted approach that addresses the root causes of distress while equipping clients with practical coping skills.

I encourage curiosity and foster a supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic environment. Clients feel empowered to explore and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors. Ultimately, this collaborative process enables clients to cultivate resilience, regain a sense of control, and experience greater overall well-being.
