Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Vashon, WA.

We look together at the areas of your life that are causing you stress and anxiety. For most people, this is a huge aspect of living. Finding ways to reduce such stress and anxiety becomes a major focus of our work. We will examine your work, your family life, your relationships, your ability to function day to day, and the kinds of things you already do to cope with anxiety and stress. Developing strategies to deal more effectively with anxiety and stress is a major goal in counseling.

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.

Lower anxiety and stress with helpful tools for you individually, in relationships, or at work. Sometimes anxiety rises because of specific circumstances and for others it has always been there. Our culture adds to our anxiety levels and learning how to avoid excess stress can make a huge difference. Anxiety can also be a reaction to something that happened in our past. Let me help you lower your reactions to stress.
