Working with anxiety and fears is all about building relationships internally with the parts of self that are anxious or fearful. As we settle the intensity of the anxieties and fears, we open to a world of possibility. It can be scary, but our biggest fears often hold the keys to our greatest gifts. We will explore your experience in a way that is body focussed, and 'inside-out' meaning that what is most vital is connecting with your deepest self-expression. From there, we access what is deeply true for you and we can then work to address the patterns, beliefs, addictions and stressors that get in the way of you being your most beautiful, soulful self.
Another way to think of anxiety is that is represents a form of emotional or psychological pain. Just like pain in the body is a sign things aren't right then the same is true of our minds. Think of anxiety as a way your mind has of letting you know things need attention.
Anxiety and phobias can be debilitating. While CBT and mindfulness can be helpful, they are not the only treatment for anxiety. I tailor my approach to your needs, whether this is general support or more structured therapies.
