If you suffer from stress and anxiety you feel overwhelmed with worries and fears that something terrible may happen to you or someone close to you.

Using your natural healing process as our guide, we can help the nervous system learn what a peaceful state of health and vitality is again. I offer EMDR and other trauma processing approaches to support you in your healing when appropriate.

Anxiety and stress can often feel like an overwhelming noise that drowns out your ability to stay calm and present. While stress is typically a reaction to external pressures, anxiety is often a persistent internal echo that lingers even when the immediate threat has passed. Together, they can manifest as physical tension, restless thoughts, and a sense of being "on edge." In our work together, we focus on identifying the specific triggers that fuel this cycle and developing practical, sustainable tools to quiet the mind and settle the nervous system. By creating a calm space to deconstruct these feelings, you can move from a state of survival into one of clarity, balance, and well-being.

Anxiety and stress are part of life, and help us to survive. Out-of-control stress responses, though, make life hard to bear. I will support you in implementing strategies to handle panic and stress when it hits you, and provide education around what’s happening in our body when the stress response is activated. Using dialectical behavioral therapy, I will help you learn mindfulness and other strategies to tolerate distress and regulate your emotions. We will also look at your lifestyle, and how family of origin and relationship patterns impact your stress levels. In some cases, where trauma is at the root of the anxiety, we may use EMDR to help the brain integrate and heal the trauma.

All of us have times in life where situations create such stress for us that we find living difficult. Others of us have a lifetime struggle with anxiety and panic attacks.
