Break free from anxiety and regain control
What is anxiety? Is this how you feel?
Anxiety is the body's natural response to stress. It’s one of the most common mental health issues that can manifest in various forms, such as:
Excessive worry
Restlessness
Racing thoughts
Physical symptoms like a racing heart or shortness of breath
While anxiety is a normal part of life (at moderate levels, it can be a helpful signal that alerts you to potential dangers), it can easily become overwhelming and persistent, thus adversely affecting your life's quality.
When anxiety becomes chronic or intense, it can disrupt your daily life and affect your relationships, work, and overall well-being.
Anxiety therapy will help you prevent it from happening or guide you out of that stage.
Types of anxiety disorders
Although a lot of people correlate EMDR with trauma & PTSD treatment, this modality is more versatile and can be used to help clients struggling with:
Generalized Anxiety
Disorder (GAD)
Identified by persistent and excessive worry about everyday situations, often without a clear cause.
Phobias
It’s an intense fear of particular objects or situations that goes beyond rational concern.
Panic Disorder
Characterized by sudden and intense episodes of fear (panic attacks) that may include a racing heart or shortness of breath.
Perfectionism
A never-ending need to meet extremely high standards, often causing chronic stress and self-criticism.
Social Anxiety Disorder
It involved a deep fear of being judged, embarrassed, or rejected in social situations, leading to avoidance of such interactions.

What can you expect from trauma/PTSD therapy
There are five main benefits you can expect from trauma & PTSD therapy with me:
EMDR
Eye movement therapy will help you break the cycle of anxiety. With EMDR, you will achieve a greater sense of safety and emotional stability. This modality is especially beneficial when your anxiety is related to distressing events from your past.
Havening Techniques
This approach helps you regulate your system in moments of high stress and prevent the overwhelm from hijacking your body in moments of crisis.
IFS
This modality will help you identify and work with the inner Parts that contribute to worry and fear. By building a more balanced and compassionate relationship with these parts, you will be able to reduce overwhelm and regain emotional balance.
Brainspotting
This therapeutic approach is similar to EMDR. By focusing on specific eye positions, brainspotting enables your brain to release the tension and “rewire” its emotional responses, which leads to a greater sense of calm and being in control of your own life.
