Anxiety and depression, how to manage? Learn cognitive distortions and implement positive reframing for stressful situations. What are cognitive distortions? A cognitive distortion is an exaggerated or irrational thought pattern that can bring on depression and anxiety. Cognitive distortions are thoughts that cause individuals to perceive reality inaccurately. Steps to combat cognitive distortions: Identify the Cognitive Distortion, Challenge your assumptions, Fact or opinion challenge, and Positively reframe situations. Person centered therapy is utilized during treatment. I do NOT prescribe medications or provide ADHD evaluations
Explore general anxiety, anticipation anxiety, seasonal affective disorder, depressive disorders, mood disorders, and self reflection. Hands on coping skills to decrease or eliminate stressors Learn grounding (5,4,3,2,1 technique), deep breathing, mindfulness, and guided imagery techniques. Identify and implement self care activities to ease your stressors.
I am an LGBTQ ally and provide unconditional positive regard throughout treatment. I enjoy a good mystery/thriller book and my 4 cats. I have been practicing therapy for 9 years and have worked with all walks of life. Email me above to talk about scheduling!
