Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Avon Park, FL.

All of us experiences stress in our lives. So, why would we pursue counseling for stress management. First and foremost, excess stress leads to poor health from headaches and digestion problems to heart disease, high blood pressure and stroke if left unmanaged for years. It negatively impacts your appearance by contributing to lack of sleep, poor diet and decreased exercise. It decreases your productivity at home, school and on the job because you are distracted and less organized. In the end, chronic stress and anxiety decrease your overall level of happiness. But, there are effective stress management techniques which I can help you learn and incorporate into your daily life.

There are many reasons we have anxiety and overwhelming stress. Some are known and some unknown. Either way they can be managed. With healthy coping and self awareness you can change your life. If you suffer from ruminating thoughts, panic, poor sleep, high self-doubt, or perfectionism call me. When our mind becomes a master of us instead of us mastering our mind we loose control and attempt to grasp for it anywhere we can. I will teach you mindfulness techniques and self awareness to cope with anxiety and stress. I have 23+ years of studying and teaching the science and philosophy of yoga that informs my wisdom on treating anxiety. Nothing is more important than your health. Call today.

Anxiety can affect your life in so many ways. Anxiety can keep you from reaching out for that relationship, or attempting for a better job. Anxiety can be healthy, but when you have too much it reduces your life. I really understand anxiety and stress, and can give you the tools and self-esteem to roam freely though this world, being all that you were meant to be. Let's do this!

Are you nervous a lot of the time? Isn’t it uncomfortable? And it doesn’t help to just be told to ‘calm down’. I am a highly trained clinical psychologist with years of both academic and clinical experience. I truly empathize with your emotional state(s) and can assist in improving your overall quality of life. How might this look? First, when you and I meet, you get support and time to just chat. This in itself can begin to lessen one’s stress. Together we can locate exactly what is making you anxious, and why. And then you and I create ways of decreasing your nervousness, and increasing your comfort level! Life can start to feel better when one’s anxiety is properly attended to.

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.

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.
