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.

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.

When we are struggling emotionally, we know that it impacts our day to day functioning. What starts with fear often leads to worry. Worry leads to anxiety and anxiety can lead to stress. What starts out as some degree of fear only grows in intensity until we are experiencing the physical symptoms of stress in our body; headaches, irritable bowel syndrome, muscle tension, tight jaw, griffin teeth, TMJ, lower back pain and more. In therapy, we process these distressful feelings and explore what healthy rhythms might facilitate the change we desire.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they dont treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people dont 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.

When it comes to treating anxiety disorders, research shows that therapy is usually the most effective option. That’s because anxiety therapy – as opposed to anxiety medication – treats more than just symptoms to the problem. Rather, we examine the underlying causes and explore ways to heal those wounds. Therapy can help to alleviate worries and fears, teach coping techniques to relax, look at situations in a new, less frightening way, and develop better-coping mechanisms and problem-solving skills. If you suffer from an anxiety disorder, I invite you to contact me today for a free consultation.

I work extensively with clients suffering from anxiety - based symptoms, such as generalized anxiety, panic disorder, social anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Individuals dealing with anxiety symptoms often do not realize how prevalent anxiety is in other people, and they tend to overestimate danger and threat in the world, while under-estimating their ability to effectively cope with it. Anxious people tend to " live in the future", often making "what if" statements about various negative future events that will likely never even occur. There are many stress management skills, including breathing techniques, visualization, thought stopping, and changing negative thoughts.

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!

I focus on CBT and Behavioral interventions. Anxiety is a vicious cycle of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors maintaining and creating symptoms. These symptoms are not all 'in your head.' Many anxiety symptoms are physical (heart rate changes, breathing, headaches, sleep disturbance). I guide clients to overcome the thoughts and behaviors creating and maintaining their personal cycle of anxiety.

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.

Constant worrying and feeling stressed out does not have to be your normal! Anxiety tells us that we need to avoid, avoid, avoid. We think if we avoid the things we fear, then the anxiety will go away but that's actually how we inadvertently make our anxiety worse. Through CBT and ERP, you will learn the tools to face your anxiety and increase your tolerance for the feelings that come along with it. By facing your anxiety, you can make choices that lead to doing the things you love most. In therapy, you'll also learn coping skills and be able to express your worries in a supportive space.
