Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Spirit Lake, ID.

Everyone experiences anxiety at some point, but for some the anxiety is so frequent or intense that it interferes with their lives or even triggers panic attacks. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help my clients get a sense of control over their own anxiety. We collaborate to learn skills to reduce the frequency or intensity of the anxious feelings, to tolerate the anxiety when it does occur so they can still function through it, and to practice habits that reduce stress and improve general mental health.

Fear is a good gift from God, making us more careful when something could do harm; anxiety, though, is worry without an object to harm us, even making us afraid of becoming afraid. Stress comes from how we think about change. The Bible is full of stories of God telling His people to "Fear not," but it is difficult.
