Anxiety Counseling- Healing from Anxiety

Tender Rock counseling Center provides Family counseling, Marriage counseling, Interracial Marriage counseling, Couples Counseling , Grief and Loss Counseling, Parenting Counseling, Christian Counseling, Relationship Counseling, Depression Counseling, PTSD Counseling, Abuse Counseling, Anxiety Counseling and Child Counseling in Bellevue (Factoria), WA 98006Do you struggle with anxiety? Maybe you have wondered, but are not sure. Anxiety shows itself in many forms. Here is an example. You were having a wonderful day, then something someone says triggers anxiety or even panic in you. You are then confused by this anxiety, because you don’t know what suddenly triggered these anxious feelings. You want to hide your feelings so the other person doesn’t know, but inside, you feel terrible.
Does this sound familiar to you? In my work as a counselor, I have heard reports such as this many times. People who struggle with anxiety often don’t know why. They don’t know why anxiety can come on them when they least expect it, or how to make the anxiety “go away.” I can help you. Reach out today for the support and care you need.
In our work together, I will:
1)     Support and encourage you in your journey to healing from anxiety
2)     Help you explore possible reasons for your struggle with anxiety, what triggers anxiety, and what chances in your life might be helpful to your healing
3)      Help you understand that your anxiety is something you are struggling with, but does not represent who you are
4)     Help your brain create new neurological pathways away from the anxiety, and lead you toward greater fulfillment and even joy

      Embracing Depression as Our Ally

      Embracing Depression as Our Ally



      Depression is not a single symptom, but a construct – a group of body, mind, and spirit-related symptoms that almost always coexists with anxiety and other mental issues.  The presentation of depression is often different depending on genetic, environmental, and bio-psycho-social factors.
      Because the fear of the suffering (often unbearable) that is associated with depression, we instinctively reject it in every possible way.  Because of the pain, we perceive depression as a disease and will likely look for a quick fix. For example, we may turn to medication, based on the conventional medical (disease) model, even though antidepressant medications are not the cure.  However, if we instead seek to perceive depression as SYMPTOMS (sort of like MESSAGES), we will likely look for the cause (hidden unmet needs since the past) with our attention, curiosity, and patience. Medication can be useful if it is used carefully and does not cloud our opportunities to trace back to our unmet needs in body, mind, and spirit domains separately and collectively.  In addition, it is best to use medication along with therapy/counseling if you do decide to use it. It is particularly beneficial to your healing  if you become your own advocate to promote the collaboration between your psychotherapist/counselor and the medication prescriber.
      It is crucial to discover and understand that may occur in the context of the “process” instead of the “result”. The key to healing starts from shifting our focus from “rejecting the pain of depression” to “embracing the meaning of depression.”
