Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Ferrysburg, MI.

Anxiety and stress can be approached from two directions. One is aimed at symptom reduction - in other words, decreasing the feelings of anxiety and stress. The other direction, which can be employed at the same time, helps the client to understand the underlying causes of anxiety and factors that create feelings of stress. We work to reduce stressful situations, and also on how to handle the inevitable stress and anxiety that life brings.

Anxiety and stress therapy can help you to uncover your underlying concerns, fears, and needs, and develop coping mechanisms to begin managing your symptoms. Cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and other techniques can help teach you to live with a greater sense of inner peace. Contact Hopeful Minds Psychology Group to help you develop the skills and tools necessary to not only survive, but thrive.

If you're struggling with anxious thoughts, you may find it hard to focus. The fight or flight alarm is going off in your brain, constantly sending you messages starting with "what if...." If worrying is keeping you trapped in a hamster wheel, tired, but unable to rest, you may find yourself turning to addictive substances or behaviours to cope. As an addiction counsellor, I help clients cope with the anxious thoughts keeping them trapped in addictive behaviours. By uncovering these underlying thoughts, I help you develop coping skills so you can gain a sense of focus, clarity, confidence, and freedom from constantly overthinking. Send me a message and I'll guide you through the next steps.
