Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Mars Hill, NC.

I help clients reduce anxiety, stress and trauma by using EMDR and rapid resolution therapy both of these relax the nervous system and decrease what has been creating the stress and anxiety. I end each session with Hypnotherapy/mindfulness which is very soothing and teaches their nervous system to relax more and more. I also teach clients skills to practice at home

Anxiety can take away your personal power at the most important moments and start to have too much control over your behavior. Over time, chronic stress can break down a healthy view of yourself. Starting from our first session, I will support your understanding of anxiety, its biological effects, and its impact on your relationships. I will support you to build on developing insight and develop habits that support anxiety and stress reduction. At the end of therapy, you will have a clear plan for sustained control over anxiety and chronic stress. I'm reachable through phone for a free 20-minute consultation to further discuss your needs and answer any questions about my therapy approach.

Anxiety can invoke a sense of dread that often manifests in unhealthy coping mechanisms. Anxious people may over-eat, drink too much, lash out, or avoid obligations and deadlines leading to feelings of shame and overwhelm, which can then lead to isolation and hopelessness. I support clients in understanding and changing thinking and behavioral patterns that create and intensify anxiety, such as rumination, perfectionism and procrastination, and help them incorporate mindful, self-regulating practices into their daily lives.
