Stress and Anxiety Therapy in Denver, CO and Miramar Beach, FL
You’re tired of your anxiety ruling your life
Somehow, every morning, you gather the strength and courage to push through. You don’t want others to know how crippling your anxiety really is.
You hide your anxiety by staying busy and putting too much on your plate. Some weekends your off traveling, and most nights there is something to do.
Your packed schedule is catching up to you, you’re feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, stressed, and worst of all anxious. In the past, a busy schedule would have alleviated feelings of anxiety and overthinking, but lately is has not been working.
Anxiety to you is that pressure in your chest that won’t go away, even on good days; it is feeling inadequate in everything you do, insecure, and fearful of making a mistake and disappointing others.
At night, you over-analyze and overthink everything you did and said, playing it over and over again in your mind, wishing for a redo.
Most of the time you feel trapped in your own head, unable to turn your thinking off. You’re always expecting that you will mess up, annoy others, and that worst case scenario your brain came up with will happen.
You’ve started to experience Anxiety Attacks.
The events from the past year and a half has made your anxiety worse and feel more intense. Panic attacks have become part of your life.
At the end of most days, you find yourself on the floor, in a ball crying
and gasping for air, it feels like you’re dying.
On the rare occasion your panic might start in the middle of work, you run to the bathroom trying so hard to keep together, just another few hours until you’re home.
You can’t live like this anymore. You want to find balance, peace, and not be crippled by your mistakes and what others think of you.

Stress and Anxiety Therapy Can Help
Stress and anxiety therapy typically involves several approaches aimed at helping individuals manage and reduce their symptoms. Here are some common components:
1. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) : This is a structured, goal-oriented therapy that helps individuals identify and challenge negative thought patterns and beliefs, replacing them with more positive and realistic ones.
2. Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: These practices, such as meditation, deep breathing exercises, and progressive muscle relaxation, help individuals become more aware of their thoughts and feelings, promoting relaxation and reducing anxiety.
3. Exposure Therapy: For those with specific phobias or social anxiety, gradual exposure to the feared situation or object can help desensitize the individual, reducing avoidance behaviors.
4. Talk Therapy: Open discussions about feelings, experiences, and triggers can help individuals process their emotions and gain insights into their anxiety and stress.
5. Lifestyle Changes: Therapists may recommend strategies to improve sleep, nutrition, and exercise, all of which can significantly impact stress levels and overall mental health.
6. Goal Setting: Establishing realistic and achievable goals can help individuals focus on what they can control and create a sense of accomplishment.
7. Support Systems: Encouraging the development of a support network, whether through friends, family, or support groups, can provide additional emotional assistance.
Each person's therapy plan may differ based on their specific needs, preferences, and circumstances.
Amanda Conroy’s Approach to Stress and Anxiety Therapy
I take a trauma approach when I provide anxiety therapy for my clients; meaning, I work with my clients to find the root cause of their anxiety and uncover any trauma that may have caused the development of their worry and panic.
If there is underlying trauma, I work with my clients to process that trauma, as a result, their problematic symptoms of anxiety are significantly reduced or eliminated.
In the beginning of treatment, I utilize talk therapy to learn more about you, your history, and symptoms. As a result, our therapeutic rapport will be strengthened, which is vital for success in therapy.
I take an active approach in the counseling session. You will be provided with psycho-education and with tools and skills to cope with and manage your anxiety. Also, I will assign you homework in-between sessions.
What is Holding You Back from Stress and Anxiety Therapy?
I don’t have time.
Therapy is a time commitment. That is why I offer exclusive online therapy for anxiety. Online therapy allows you the convenience of not having to take time out of your day to drive to the therapy office, have session, and drive home.
Will stress and anxiety therapy really help me?
Like with everything in life, there is no guarantee. However, I have seen my clients grow and make significant changes in their life because of therapy.
Therapy is not only what the therapist brings to the table such as their training, experience, and expertise, but it is about what you bring to the therapeutic process.
Clients who have the most success in therapy are able to meet weekly or bi-weekly for session, are ready to get to work, engage in the therapeutic process, and complete homework given to them outside of session.
