Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Cherry Creek, CO.

We can use mindfulness techniques to work with difficult emotions or a lack of emotions day to day. Exercise, diet, sleep and many daily activities can be utilized to help with difficult times.

I take an individualized approach so the process depends on how you want to approach it and what your needs are.

If you are suffering with anxiety or constant stress in your life, then your plate is already full.

Lao Tzu said, "If you're anxious, it's because you're living in the future. If you're at peace, it's because you're living in the present." Often anxiety looks like leaving the present moment and projecting into the future, trying to think 10 steps ahead about things that haven't happened yet. This future thinking leads to stress in the present. I teach clients how to tune into their emotions (including anxiety), their bodies (as an anchor to the present moment) and move through anxiety as it arises using their breath. Anxiety and stress don't have to run your life. I'm here to support you in regulating your anxiety and stress by staying with yourself in the present moment.

When working with me on issues of stress or anxiety, we first start with teaching and building resources to manage the stress and anxiety.

Together we can work on the core issues driving your anxiety and stress in order to experience lasting relief.

Know that you can have control over your anxiety and stress. When you feel anxiety coming on, move your body, let it go, think about your strengths and the amazing things you've done and the unlimited possibilities that are open to you. Know that you are in control of what you focus on. Do you want to think positive, or negative? Breath, relax, let go! Every day, think about the new opportunities you could be inviting into your life. When things are challenging, smile, you've got this....try something new, and if it doesn't work, be thankful and try something new again. Look for the good bright spots in your journey!

Anxiety and chronic stress can leave people feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or stuck in patterns of worry. Therapy helps clients understand what fuels their anxiety while building practical tools to calm the nervous system and manage daily demands. Many clients experience improved emotional regulation, reduced reactivity, greater clarity, and increased confidence in navigating relationships, work, and life’s ongoing pressures.

Living with anxiety and panic attacks can be extremely painful and effect every area in a persons life. Every day can be a private battle living with anxiety. Since humans feel anxiety, we can't get rid of ever feeling anxiety again. We can, however, change the experience we have with anxiety to have a different outcome. Counseling for anxiety and panic attacks explores how anxiety shows up in your life, the roots, and discovering strategies for learning how to live a meaningful life.

Tired of being stressed out? YES! Anxiety is primarily a byproduct of a very natural process the mind goes through after being caught off guard. The mind defaults to patterned thinking designed to protect you from further harm, pain, disappointment, rejection, etc., but the protective process can raise anxiety to an unhealthy level. How do you know when your stress is to high? How do you know when your anxiety is above the norm? Dr. Bruce Rumsey has been able to help many clients suffering from stress, regulate their emotions, including their anxiety, to a level that allowed them to resume their normal lives, decision-making, and sense of well-being throughout the Denver area.

I use talk therapy, CBT, and EMDR to approach the treatment process for clients suffering from anxiety and stress. With anxiety, EMDR can prove to be key because it allows the brain to search the root causes of a person's anxiety and find healing at a base level. This is much more affective than simply treating symptoms of anxiety. Once the root cause is discovered, relief will naturally occur. However, it is also important to address the present symptoms and help clients make changes in their lives to alleviate anxiety and develop healthy coping skills.
