A certain amount of Anxiety and Stress are normal in life. But when life gets too big, we sometimes lose the ability to deal with them effectively and need help. There are many ways that counseling can help bring relief (some of it immediately!) in these areas. Some people find relaxation tools are helpful in day to day approaches but we also need to be able to tap into other tools when that is not enough. With an expanded tool kit, we have more options, more tools, to deal with stress and anxiety where we do not have to live in their relentless shadow.

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.

Are you stressed or anxious? Anxiety is usually partly caused by "what if" questions that you ask but don't answer, instead imagining that the worst will overtake you and you will be left helpless and hopeless. I will help you to look at these questions and really answer them, rather than relying upon your fear-filled imagery to determine how you'll feel. In addition to helping you look at what you can do to cope in the various scenarios you imagine. Depending upon the extent of your problems, we might work to teach you skills to relax and calm your mind, learn to control your breathing, problem-solve, communicate more effectively, set limits, and more.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming and there is often a tendency to avoid situations that a person feels will cause further or increased anxiety. Interestingly, when a person is able to address or move toward what causes them anxiety, they move toward the answer to the feelings or sensations they are experiencing. The answers lie in approaching what cause us anxiety rather than avoiding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gently assists a person in learning to approach what causes anxiety and find the answers to overcome the feelings of being overwhelmed.
