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

Stress and anxiety can take a toll on your life. I help people manage, reduce and uncover what is causing and fueling the stress and anxiety in their lives. I look at the relationship between your thoughts, beliefs, and experiences, past and present, to look for underlying patterns that maybe sustaining or triggering a stress or anxiety response within you. I use cognitive as well as mind-body approaches including hypnotherapy and mindfulness to interrupt and reduce your stress and anxiety patterns, making room for an increased sense of well-being in your life.

Anxiety and stress are a normal part of life and can come from both positive and negative aspects of life. Changing, moving away from, or coping with negativity is one aspect of anxiety and stress management. But also learning to accept the reality that anxiety and stress are a part of even in positive things, like intimate relationships or a fulfilling career, is equally important. Health psychology is about reducing "bad" and embracing "good" stress. The better friends you are with stress, the less damaging it is to your mental and physical health. Curiosity about and gratitude for your stress responses are crucial to effectively managing them.

It is an uneasy feeling when anxiousness is overflowing, especially when it starts to affect the normal life style of yours or your child’s. I provide professional training and practical relaxation skills to help you feel relief and ease again. The most important thing is that we will together build a beneficial system for you to live with stress in a healthy way instead of being controlled by anxiety.

In today's fast-moving world it's hard not to be stressed out. It can be even harder to determine if the stress and anxiety is "normal" or should be treated. If it's causing you impairments in your daily life, or if you're stressing about your stress, it's worth talking about in therapy. I help client identify what their stress/anxiety looks like and how to better manage it. Stress doesn't have to be bad, in fact it can be channeled in ways that will make you more a more productive person and help you reach your goals... with the added bonus feeling less stressed and more relaxed.

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.

Our work together will help uproot and eliminate the causes of anxiety and decrease worry in life and relationships. You will learn to transform worrisome thought patterns to positive feelings and develop the perspective to live a more meaningful and productive life. In so doing, you create a more positive environment for you and loved ones. You will feel lighter and happier. The process is available to anyone willing to invest time and energy.

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.

Anxiety can run your life, but it doesn't have to. Together, we'll work on ways to tap into the security and strength of your body. We'll understand the anxious stories and find ways to bring supportive, soothing energy to calm those parts down. We'll listen to your body for any signs of unresolved trauma or relational wounding and work gently with the body to heal.

Anxiety and stress are sneaky. Some anxiety can help us focus, but too much can be paralyzing. From worries to full blown panic attacks, anxiety is not a simple thing to be dealing with. But in sessions with me, you will understand how to notice anxiety and deal with it in ways that free you to experiencing the rest of your life. You can be happy again. If you find that you worry, therapy with me can help you work with the anxiety instead of against it. Let's do it together.

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.

Coping skills are helping in managing anxiety; however, they don't address the root cause of anxiety. I use front-line therapies that address the root cause of anxiety, allowing you to finally heal and move forward in life unburdened. As a nutritionist, I also provide targeted nutritional support to physiologically reduce anxiety symptoms naturally.

Do you sometimes feel as though life is dragging you along? Would you like to live life instead of your life living you? Anxiety happens when your thoughts are primarily concerns about the future. As a psychotherapist and yoga teacher with a long-standing commitment to my own mindfulness practice, I will guide you in learning to shift your mind from the future to the present. Mindfulness and Lifespan Integration techniques have been shown to be effective developing the present-focused awareness and emotional cohesion that can soothe anxiety and unlock freedom.

Anxiety is a physical experience often felt when there is potential threat to something meaningful for us. We move into the realm of imagination and creativity to assess all the possible outcomes and live through each one. Or we may become paralyzed with fear and panic. Our work will help to build awareness around your experiences of anxiety. Together, we will create support to turn towards the anxiety and see what it has to offer us in the present moment. The work will clarify your needs, your boundaries, and increase your sense of agency and power in the current moment. You will learn to be in the driver's seat and regulate your anxiety rather than have it control you.

The treatment of anxiety and stress first begins with the management of the symptoms bringing you in for treatment. Without having these symptoms under control, it is difficult for individuals to begin to examine the reasons behind the anxiety without provoking more anxiety. Once these symptoms are addressed, we will start to examine the life situations you are in and the relationships, stories, family roles and events that may be the roots of the stress and subsequent anxiety. With some time, consistency, openness and commitment to the process, individuals will find anxiety more manageable and the enjoyment of every day returned.

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.

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.

Did you know that anxiety disorders are the number one mental health disorder in the United States? Nearly 40 million American adults experience an anxiety disorder every year, but only about 1/3 of those people seek treatment. The good news is that of those who seek treatment, many recover. If you are experiencing anxiety, you know that it can be debilitating, exhausting, and lonely. Therapy is one of proven ways to treat anxiety- with therapy, you can begin to regain control of your life, feel calmer, and live the life you want to live instead of the life anxiety is making you live!

Anxiety can pull us away from the person we are or want to be and stop us from enjoying the people and things that make life worth living. Whether you suffer from general anxiety, postpartum anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, or phobias, I can help. My approach is mindfulness based. We will learn how the interaction among your thoughts, feelings, and behavior impact your well-being. With help, you can learn to have a different relationship with your painful thoughts and feelings, one that lets you step back into your life and experience it fully as it takes place.

Anxiety and stress can be paralyzing forces in your life, preventing you from enjoying the important people and moments in your life. Cognitive behavioral therapy is very effective in helping my client to examine the thoughts, fears and assumptions that are driving their anxieties and to replace them with healthier ways of viewing and experiencing the world.

Anxiety and stress are a natural part of life but how do you manage it? Stress is a result of trying to deal with the pressures and changes of life. I provide clear-cut solutions to give you the relief you need from trying situations. I am a strong proponent of dialectic behavioral therapy and mindfulness which incorporates breathing, relaxation, and other physiological exercises to help reduce the anxiety from within.

You do not need to live with anxiety. You know what I mean, the clenching in your stomach or the butterflies, the all too familiar headaches, the tightness in your shoulders or chest, the difficulty sleeping, the constant worrying. These symptoms and others are the result of anxiety. I offer a confidential, safe, and supportive place to talk about what you are experiencing and what you need to live with less fear more joy. There is a way to greater health and well-being. I can teach you relaxation skills, work with your negative thoughts that contribute to anxiety, help you resolve chronic stress that you may be carrying from your childhood, and teach you compassion and self-acceptance.
