Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Exton, PA.

Anxiety in children, teenagers, and young adults is on the rise—social anxiety, generalized anxiety, panic disorder, separation anxiety, OCD.... I see kids in middle school who already worry about getting into a good college, and high school teens ruminating about something they said at the lunch table that they're worried will cost them socially. Let me help your child or teen sort out the differences sources of anxiety in his/her life and find ways to reduce them or reduce the level of anxiety they bring out. And, since there are natural sources of anxiety in our lives that cannot be eliminated, I find it important to teach kids how to better manage the anxiety that remains.

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.
