Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Cottage Lake, WA.

Our approach to anxiety is to first identify patterns in your family of origin. Most clients who struggle with ongoing anxiety are often care takers of their families. Coming to grips with where these do good patterns may actually not be so good can help you as a client lesson your anxiety. Stress is typically more of how a person holds every day anxiety. These forms of anxiety can often be relieved by becoming more familiar with identifying and expressing your feelings in a safe environment.

Anxiety and stress are some of the most common concerns that clients bring to me in session. The constant worry of how to get everything done, while navigating a pandemic, in an ever-changing world can seem overwhelming at times. You are not alone. Whether you are looking for help with your daily challenges or feel like stress and anxiety are impacting your relationships, I can help. I look forward to working with you on ways to calm your mind and experience the peace you are looking for.

Anxiety is one of the body's natural responses to external and internal situations. Some anxiety is normal, and to be expected when we are encountering new, or fearful situation. On the other hand, too much anxiety can be overwhelming, and can keep you from doing many of the things you want to be doing. But Anxiety doesn't have to rule your life! I specialize in teaching you the skills and tools of anxiety management, so you can resolve your anxiety and live more of the life you want.

Anxiety is rough- you likely know this. You might think "why is this happening to me? Why does this phase me like it does? This isn't anything big." You also may be under intense stress and perhaps even intensely traumatic situations and just now starting to feel the impact. I offer helpful practical tools to deal with anxiety in how you think and how you breath. But I don't stop there as those things are often un-effective, as you may have already found, if not partnered with a deep understanding of how to work with, on an emotional level, messy feelings.

By working collaboratively with a skilled therapist, you can better understand the underlying causes and triggers of your anxiety and stress. You'll learn practical coping mechanisms through tailored interventions to challenge negative thought patterns, regulate overwhelming emotions, and develop healthier behaviors and habits. Imagine your life with reduced anxiety symptoms, improved stress management, enhanced self-awareness, and greater overall well-being. Our therapists will also help develop valuable skills for long-term self-care, resilience, and a more balanced approach to handling life's challenges, enabling you to regain control, find inner calm, and thrive daily.

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.
