Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Rogers, TX.

Anxiety and stress present in different ways, but we know that they can destroy our own bodies and psyches but also make us difficult partners at home and at work. Anxiety and stress have both biological and environmental factors, so we work on this from a holistic perspective. We look at your sleep habits, your overall health, the anxiety handed down biologically and environmentally from family, and the negative, unrealistic thoughts that may be keeping your stuck in an anxious state. EMDR is an excellent non-pharmaceuical treatment for anxiety/stress, because it works from this holistic perspective and pays special attention to the trauma underlying and fueling the negative cognitions.

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.

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.

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.

Anxiety can be a debilitating condition that manifests in any number of behaviors including such things as isolating, and OCD rituals, to name a few. Many people who experience high anxiety have panic attacks which literally create a physical response that often mimics a heart attack. Panic attacks are terrifying and can sometimes occur without a trigger. When that happens, the fear of the panic attack is as intense as the anxiety itself which often causes more frequent and intense panic. The root of anxiety is fear. There are a number of therapeutic modalities that have scientific evidence that supports their effectiveness. I work to discover the cause and then find the right modality.

Do your thoughts and worries consume you? Do you ever feel like you can't get control of what's going on? Ever have a hard time shutting your brain off? I work with clients to identify sources of stress and anxiety. Believe it or not, not all stress and anxiety is bad, and it likely won't ever go away completely, but I help client learn how to manage their stress and anxiety so that it can still be beneficial without taking over their lives.
