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.

Psychotherapy provides a robust and adaptable process for addressing both anxiety and stress, often integrating evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Through 1 therapy, individuals gain a supportive environment to understand the triggers and patterns associated with their anxiety and stress responses.

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!

Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists.

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.

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.
