Constant relationship unpredictability triggers persistent alert states exhausting your spirit completely. Therapy here teaches regulation strategies supporting steadiness through turbulence around you. Practice grounding exercises reducing immediate fight-or-flight responses activating daily habits. Firm limits prevent escalation draining emotional reserves rapidly. Expect lower cortisol levels correlating with calmer evenings spent resting peacefully now. Mental bandwidth frees up for hobbies neglected previously during crisis management phases only. True relaxation arrives once stability anchors become reliable constants replacing fear-based reactions consistently overtime. Living calmly again requires learning to trust safety exists internally regardless of external chaos momentarily.

Many people have anxiety. Anxiety is the most common problem that clients bring into psychotherapy. Anxiety can create feelings of fear, worry, uneasiness, and dread. Sometimes you can say what it is bothering you. Your job or relationship may be causing you stress and you want to solve the problems. You don’t know how to deal with the mounting pressures. Friends will often say “don’t worry about it” but that doesn’t help. Sometimes you don’t really know what is bothering you it just is. I can show you how spot these feelings before they overwhelm you and what you can do about it. We’ll get clear on what has been difficult for you and how have you been feeling.

However, while enlisting the support of and knowledgeable therapist, you will be able to learn strategies that will allow you to regain control and experience joy. My approach uses cognitive behavioral strategies, insight oriented psychotherapy and mindfulness to help you regain the life you deserve.

David B. Alexander, Psychotherapy and Leadership

Licensed Psychotherapist

In 11361 - Nearby to Elmwood Park.

Anxiety arises due to one's own natural energies being turned back on oneself. That is caused by lack of clarity on how to advance in life's many often complex situations. In therapy I help you uncover the root causes of anxiety, and to find the way to transcend specific current issues. This relieves the underlying anxieties that seem to arise from nowhere. I will help you see that the anxiety and circular, repeated thinking are due to deeply-held messages. These restrictive messages make it difficult to see the path forward, and can cause you to feel that authentic self-expression is dangerous, not wanted, and unhealthy.

Clients can navigate stressful and distressing events in the present by healing from past painful or traumatic life experiences. Processing the events can decrease emotional response and increase cognitive flexibility. Clients struggling from feeling emotionally hurt, isolated, selfish, helpless, or hopeless can gain insight into symptoms and treatment of depression. Clients can learn emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal relationship skills and heal from past painful experiences that may influence current thoughts and belief systems in an unhealthy way.
