We hold our anxiety and stress in our body. We feel tension, gut problems, hot flashes, disrupted sleep and more. I work with anxiety and stress by helping individuals learn and develop tools to re-regulate their nervous system. When we have a coherent and fluid nervous system, we can do difficult things without feeling paralyzed by overwhelming fear.

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.

As a high-achieving man, anxiety and stress comes with the territory. And you wouldn’t be where you are today in life unless you’ve handled it pretty well until now. But most successful men find that anxiety eventually impacts them. Whether it’s slowly been eating at you for years, or you’ve just experienced your first panic attack, you’re not going crazy. There are solutions, and this can get better. I help men learn practical stress-management techniques, but I don’t stop there. I also help them identify the root causes of their stress and anxiety, and use research-proven EMDR therapy to systematically target them. The results are measurable, evidenced by deeper calm and clarity of mind.

For those whose anxiety is strictly situational- techniques discovered in counseling and practiced in life are the suggested remedy for empowering one in their every day lives. I can help you in your quest for peace and confidence in this area of your life.

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.
