Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Madison, CT.

Perhaps the first intervention I normally do with my clients surrounding stress and anxiety and identifying it's purpose. That's right! Imagine a world without stress or anxiety and we perhaps would never get out of bed in the morning. Typically, anxiety is due to fear of the unknown and stress often comes from having too much on our plates. When it comes to most changes in our lives, the more we want to change all at once means the less likely we are to accomplish anything

Our world seems to be in quite the hurry with ever increasing demands on our time and resources. It is important to learn how to juggle all of these demands and practice re-prioritizing our life. Putting family and relationships first can be challenging yet paramount. Actively using progressive relaxation, meditation, and hypnosis aids in anxiety and stress management.

We all live with some type of anxiety, at ASD Center for Therapeutic Services we have many different clinicians with differing approaches to dealing with Anxiety. Whether it is working with a Hypnotherapist, someone assisting with one on one meditation or Accelerated Resolution Therapy. We have many ways of helping you to relax.

Anxiety and stress are some of the most common concerns that clients bring to me in session. The constant worry of how to get everything done, while navigating a pandemic, in an ever-changing world can seem overwhelming at times. You are not alone. Whether you are looking for help with your daily challenges or feel like stress and anxiety are impacting your relationships, I can help.

I assist adults in understanding causes of their current anxiety and identify the triggers that lead them to an anxious state. Teaching you how to mitigate your anxiety through positive strategies, breathing techniques, and nutritional and physical exercises, has been a primary focus of my 30+ years of clinical practice. I assist children/adolescents in helping them to build the courage to approach what they would rather avoid, minimizing their fear and maximizing their ongoing capacity to take risks throughout their lives. Early intervention is key in minimizing the impact of anxiety throughout a lifetime.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to teach clients the necessary tools to manage their anxiety and stress. I will teach you breathing and relaxation techniques along with tools to change your thinking and how you perceive situations. We will work on building self-esteem and self-compassion, as well as silencing your inner critic.

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.
