Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Winter Haven, FL.

Children ages 3-ll suffer from anxiety and stress. Anxiety may manifest itself in excessive worry, trouble sleeping, irritability, and restlessness. I use client-centered play therapy in a safe environment, enabling the child to express his/her emotions and thoughts through play. Play Therapy uses play, a child's natural medium of expression, to help them express their feelings more easily through toys instead of words.

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.

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.

Therapy for anxiety provides a safe space to explore the root causes of your worry, fear, or overwhelm.

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.

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.
