Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Mountain Brook, AL.

There are ways you respond to stress and anxiety that can keep you stuck. These are formed under great duress and can unknowingly become regular habits. I can help you understand how your brain processes your stress. I can teach you ways to ground yourself and form healthier coping strategies that will open up new areas of hope and healing. I utilize the principles of mindfulness in a customized manner to meet my clients where they are in a way that feels authentic and safe.

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.

As we encounter forces destructive to our individuality or actual threats to our being, our nervous system records this as anxiety. In the here and now, anxiety is meant to alert us to threats. At that moment of anxiety, you may want to fight, flee. or find yourself in paralysis. Later, other things may remind us of that threat. Our work is to normalize the anxiety of the earlier threats and more fully distinguish between then and now. Stress for me is the amount of subtle and covert threats you have encountered through out your life.
