Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Land O' Lakes, FL.

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. Contact Kevin@kevinflemingphd.com for the ultimate stress and anxiety solution that will literally change your brain's autonomic nervous system patterns while you sit on your butt. 877-606-6161.

Are you a hard-working guy being crushed by stress? Stress, anxiety, burnout, and addiction are all predictable outcomes when stress gets too high. In my experience, men are often misunderstood and under-appreciated... even by their own wives and children. The good news is that you don’t have to slowly suffer and fade off into the sunset. You were created for more than this, and even strong men need support from time to time. You’ve shown your grit through the ups and downs of life. You’ve already been through a lot. But getting professional help shows a different kind of toughness, and if right now you’re buckling under the weight of life, it’s time to take the next step. I’m here to help.

At KML, we have several anxiety specialists. We believe that anxiety is highly neurological and we are 'wired' to move through the world in particular ways. Sometimes this can be due to traumas or other things that make us hypervigalent to the world around us. It is also highly genetic in nature. Anxiety can be located in the mind and also sometimes the body, just depending on the person. We are here to help you rewire your mind/body and cope with anxiety in more healthy ways. We also have unique evidence-based ways to help you, including test anxiety methods, EMDR, SSP, and others.

Anxiety and stress are among the most common struggles people face, yet they can feel incredibly isolating. The constant pressure to do it all in a fast-moving world can become overwhelming, leaving you exhausted and unsure how to find relief. You are not alone in this. Whether anxiety shows up in your daily routines, impacts your relationships, or keeps your mind from resting, therapy can provide support and direction. Together, we will work on practical ways to calm your mind, ease the intensity of worry, and create more space for peace and clarity in your life.

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.

Therapy for anxiety provides a safe space to explore the root causes of your worry, fear, or overwhelm. You'll learn practical tools to manage racing thoughts, reduce physical tension, and face challenges with more confidence. Over time, therapy can help you feel more grounded, in control, and able to respond to stress in healthier ways. Whether your anxiety feels constant or situation-specific, we can help you develop the tools to manage it, leading to lasting relief and resilience.

Anxiety and stress therapy with me is indeed a unique experience. Several assessment tools are used including an accountability chart which guides healthy life balance. Other effective forms of treatment include anxiety management, cognitive therapy and exposure therapy. With anxiety management I teach patients skills that will help them cope. Skills taught include relaxation training, breathing retraining, positive thinking, assertiveness training and thought stopping. Cognitive therapy helps clients change irrational beliefs that interfere with psychological functioning and create emotional disturbances. With Exposure therapy I encourage clients to confront stress/anxiety symptom triggers.

Anxiety and stress are prevalent in American society and are taking a toll on our health when not well managed. It is correlated with numerous health issues including cardiovascular problems, digestive problems, inflammation, some cancers, and weight gain. While we may, at times, be unable to avoid stressful situations, we can learn skills to help manage it. Through cognitive behavior therapy, people can learn and develop skills to manage the body's exposure to the harmful effects of stress and the thought patterns contributing to maintenance or escalation of stressful feelings..

Stress is a normal part of everyone's lives, however, when left unmanaged it can become overwhelming. We help our clients to manage stress and reduce anxious symptoms by holding safe therapeutic space for them to work through difficult emotions and experiences in a supportive environment. Anxiety can be caused by many different factors and can be temporary or chronic. Processing traumatic experiences and gaining perspective into what is contributing to your symptoms can shed light on how to lessen the severity and have more good days than bad. We will utilize therapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in making progress.

Anxiety and stress can make you feel completely out of control in your life. I specialize specifically in treating anxiety and stress related disorders. I have devoted much of my academic career towards identifying the best treatment methods for anxiety. I offer patients that pursue treatment for anxiety with me, personalized comprehensive programs targeted towards providing relief of anxiety symptoms as quickly as possible.

I help clients understand how anxiety develops and how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. Together, we explore unhelpful thinking patterns and practice practical strategies to manage worry, such as challenging negative thoughts, using calming techniques, and gradually approach feared situations. I support clients as they build confidence and learn skills that make anxiety more manageable, empowering them to navigate daily life with greater calm, clarity, and control.
