Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Clearwater, FL.

Life can be stressful but how we handle and respond to that stress is what makes the difference. I will begin by completing a thorough assessment to find the underlying causes for your stress and/or anxiety. A very important distinction it that often individuals are stressing themselves. They may blame a situation or another person but whether to be stressed or not is a choice. We will focus on looking at the source of stress in a different way---to put you in the driver's seat through a series of decisions. For example, can you get away from the stressor? Maybe you are also carrying someone else's stress. We will focus on the development of coping skills/strategies.

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.
