It's challenging if not impossible to live in today's world anxiety and stress free. But for some, anxiety and stress are interfering with the ability to enjoy life, relationships, and work.

Lake Austin Psychotherapy offers Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety disorder as well as EMDR (Eye Movement, Desensitization and Reprocessing) to accelerate symptom relief from anxiety, stress and panic disorder. Somatic Experiencing is also incorporated to promote mind-body connections and autonomic regulation for heightened nervous system response.

I work with clients facing overwhelming stress and anxiety by utilizing various modalities tailored specifically for them, I employ a holistic approach and believe through mindfulness, meditation, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and emotionally focused therapy that clients feel a sense of relief and calm by being able to take stock of their thoughts, feelings and behaviors and make sense of what the real issues are and by devising a plan to tackle them head-on.

Anxiety and stress make it impossible for you to think through immediate issues let alone work through complex interpersonal conflict and trauma. I work with my clients on mindful approaches to anxiety. It's important to utilize skills that help us relax our bodies so that our minds can come back online and work through the actual problems we face.
