Anxiety
The mental assault never stops…
The worry…
The fear…
The dread…
The racing thoughts…
It seizes your body, too.
Something happens when you’re ALWAYS on guard against danger. You feel it deep inside as your chest tightens, your heart races, and you struggle to breathe. It sends many to the emergency room because the panic feels like a heart attack!
It disrupts your life. The lack of sleep and exhaustion leave you restless, angry, and irritable. You can’t concentrate…
When you have anxiety, getting through the day is an uphill battle.
I’m here for you.
Limbic OptiMind takes a whole-person, neuroscientific approach to healing anxiety – and the trauma that causes it.
I’ll take into account all your strengths, resources, biological and psychological functioning, history, and current life circumstances, to build and implement a plan for healing.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is totally safe and highly effective… and you don’t have to talk at length about the memory. Unfortunately, traditional talk therapy that has you “relive” the event can traumatize you all over again.
EMDR is a special technique for treating anxiety by getting at the root cause; trauma. It stimulates both sides of your brain to engage the neural networks associated with painful memories. This “reprocesses” the memory and eliminates the disturbance it causes. After EMDR, people feel like they’ve been “Jedi mind-tricked” because the memory is still there, but the pain or disturbance isn’t.
This process also addresses the negative core beliefs and fears associated with the traumatic event. It directly heals the brain structures involved in thought, emotion, and physical reactions.
Somatic Experiencing and Sensorimotor Techniques
These body-based techniques address symptoms of feeling numb and detached from your body, people, and surroundings.
Rooted in neuroscience like EMDR, these techniques strengthen the structures in the brain responsible for the mind-body connection.
These techniques give you the ability to sense oncoming panic and physiologically control it before it becomes an attack.
