Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Manorhaven, NY.

Anxiety and stress are two of the most mind consuming elements people have. They are hard to control and manage. They are emotionally draining and fatiguing. You may be experiencing high levels of anxiety and stress and think that only medication can help you. I believe that people have the power within to be more helpful to themselves than they may believe or know. Having a willingness, desire, and commitment to try new behaviors and feel better prove positive for many people I work with.

When working with people who struggle with anxiety I teach skills that enable people to manage the daily stresses of life. This includes those struggling with generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, phobias, post traumatic stress disorder, and panic disorder. By learning how to cope more effectively with these symptoms people learn how to live more functional and satisfying lives.

In my approach to anxiety and stress treatment, I focus on helping clients understand the root causes of their anxiety while providing practical tools to manage symptoms. Using evidence-based techniques like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), EMDR, and mindfulness, I guide clients in recognizing negative thought patterns, reducing physical symptoms, and developing healthier responses to stress. My goal is to empower individuals to regain control, enhance emotional regulation, and build resilience, ultimately leading to greater peace and balance in their daily lives.

I help couples identify the triggers to their anxiety and develop a system to deal with stress before it deals with them! What would your life be like as a couple if you weren't continually activated in negative ways by stress? We will work together to make small steps toward change. Clients report less chronic pain when they are managing anxiety in healthy ways. It is possible to reduce anxiety and live life in a more vivid way, even if you situation is not optimal. I can teach you both to acknowledge and release these negative thoughts, thus releasing the "trauma" that has built up in your body (stored stress and anxiety)

Modern life makes finding balance a challenge for all of us. However, I have helped many women, men, and children learn cognitive skills that have enabled them to overcome the stresses in their lives. Additionally, I offer instruction on communication skills to diffuse stressful misunderstandings at home and at work. I am highly trained in a number of techniques designed to help clients to combat stress. These include: • Positive Psychology techniques • Meditation techniques • Breathing techniques • Time Management strategies • Dialectical Behavioral Therapy • Harnessing wisdom from Yoga teachings
