Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Port Orchard, WA.

Anxiety and Stress can be addressed through the use of a two pronged approach - 1) learning how to use practical and accessible tools to manage symptoms, and 2) identifying, understanding and addressing the underlying causes of anxiety and stress. Often there is some type of trauma that has been experienced, but hasn't been integrated so that healing can take place. We will work together to find and heal from the underlying causes of the anxiety, depression and stress.

There are many different types of anxiety and stress. You may be having an adverse reaction to a specific incident or you may be coming to me with a lifelong struggle around generalized anxiety. I work with many clients who have experienced work life stress and trauma and help them make sense of their situations so they can make informed decisions around a course of action. I help many clients uncover lifelong anxiety that has become so normalized that it may not register as anxiety. Ways of coping with anxiety may be also be causing problems. The goal would be to discover better tools to deal with both the underlying issue and the problems that outdated coping skills may be causing.
