The effects of anxiety, stress and depression can wreck your physical health and generalize into your personal life. When the feelings of anxiety are overwhelming they can suppress your immune system, lead to poor sleep and high blood pressure.

​

A combination of therapeutic techniques that break the pattern and habits of fear and negative obsessions are important to learn and apply to your daily life. The opposite of anxiety is deep relaxation. It’s essential to learn these skills to become calm under pressure including meditation that will promote health and wellness.

​

It should come as a relief that fears, phobias, panic attacks and PTSD can be eliminated with psychological therapies in a relatively short period of time. Unfortunately many people will take medication for years to suppress these distressing emotional problems without realizing there are mental strategies and tools to permanently solve these issues.
