Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Hill Country Village, TX.

Everyone feels anxiety at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although anxiety can feel debilitating, it is treatable. People with anxiety don’t always share the same symptoms, they vary from person to person. Therapy will help you to reclaim your life and function in a chronically stressful world.

I provide practical tools to regain control over overwhelming thoughts and emotions. Through cognitive-behavioral techniques and dialectal behavior therapy, clients can learn to identify triggers, challenge negative patterns, and cultivate a sense of calm. I collaborate with clients to develop personalized strategies that empower them to navigate anxiety-inducing situations, ultimately fostering greater resilience and emotional well-being.

We hold our anxiety and stress in our body. We feel tension, gut problems, hot flashes, disrupted sleep and more.

Anxiety is supposed to be an ally. It is a primal emotional experience that is supposed to help you avoid danger. It forecasts a potential future, but in the modern world, that future may not exist. The dirty trick of anxiety is often the worrying about worrying about worrying about worrying about worry. Stopping the cycle through increased understanding of the biological systems involved in anxiety and learning how to change the bodies reactions begins the process of turning anxiety back into an ally instead of an enemy you have to fight.

Everyone experiences anxiety at some point, but for some the anxiety is so frequent or intense that it interferes with their lives or even triggers panic attacks. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help my clients get a sense of control over their own anxiety. We collaborate to learn skills to reduce the frequency or intensity of the anxious feelings, to tolerate the anxiety when it does occur so they can still function through it, and to practice habits that reduce stress and improve general mental health.

From feeling the pre-presentation jitters to getting butterflies before a big date, anxiety is something that all of us will experience from time to time. But when anxiety levels escalate to the point of panic or begin adversely impacting your daily functioning, it can leave you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and confused. We specialize in all types of anxiety and can help you feel in control and at peace in your life.

Stress occurs in everyone's life, but anxiety can be experienced personally in ways which cause difficulty. Through talking and learning about anxiety, we can strengthen coping skills, look at family dynamics which help or hinder, and change patterns to better deal with and overcome anxiety. Life can be more comfortable as we learn how to cope and continue to grow and develop.

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.
