Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Excelsior Springs, MO.

Anxiety can come out of the blue and hit you like a tornado or it can be like a constant buzz that's always there. Our thoughts have a lot of power over our emotions and body. With the help of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), we will explore what thoughts are keeping you captive to the anxiety and fear so that you can regain your peace and freedom. Whether it is everyday escalating stress or post-traumatic stress, EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) therapy is a way to rewire our neuropathways for healing. EMDR can be very effective in bringing lasting change and healing to our brains so that you don't have to live with the trauma effects and triggers.

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.

Stress unfortunately is a daily fact of life for most of us and the body's response is to trigger the fight or flight system. This can lead to experiencing feelings of anxiety. That is why I see anxiety as a symptom, not a "condition". My goal in treating anxiety is to first help you develop the tools needed to manage your anxiety and then to work on discovering the underlying cause for it. Once we have done that, the goal is to resolve that cause and the anxiety feelings it is causing will disappear.
