MY APPROACH


Anxiety is controlled and treated through the mind-body system. Anxiety starts with the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) in your body that you don't have conscious control over. For example, your ANS regulates automatic bodily functions like your breath, heart rate, sweat, and hunger cues. Your ANS also reacts when you are under threat or perceived threat.  Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness are proven to be effective treatment approaches to overcome generalized anxiety, panic disorder, and other forms of anxiety.

How we will work together

One way I will approach our work together is by addressing the root cause of your anxiety. Often times traditional Western medicine asks individuals to “adjust” to their circumstances rather than taking the time to understand the holistic view. This can be harmful and re-traumatizing.

TOGETHER WE WILL:
○ Learn your triggers
○ Gain a holistic view of your life
○ Understand your mind-body system and how your Autonomic Nervous System regulates
○ Explore how your thoughts, emotions, and behavior interconnect
○ Identify healthy forms of healing
○ Track and monitor your symptoms for evidence of improvement, i.e., Parasympathetic Dominance
