Are you a professional worrier? Do you spend most of your time thinking about the past and fearing what is next? Do you stay up at night running through worst-case scenarios? Is fear keeping you on constant alert, stopping you from moving forward in your life, creating a tight knot in your chest or gut? Are you often in a state of fight, flight, or freeze? Are you nearly an anaerobic life-form from holding your breath so much?
Anxiety can be a relentless force in your days on its own or it can be accompanied by depression. Both are signals that something is out of balance. I listen closely to what you tell me and also look to the results of lab testing to determine if there are any nutrient deficiencies or imbalances. Once I learn what is happening with your mind, your body, and your spirit I personalize treatment to help calm your autonomic nervous system. There is no way to go through life without hitting stressors, it is our reaction to these stressors that determines how much we suffer. In our work together I will help you to cultivate resilience, develop better emotional shock-absorbers and discover what is causing your distress so you can better manage or even overcome it. How do you nurture yourself, your emotions, your spirit?
