Are you struggling with the effects of panic attacks?
Right now, you may be experiencing:
- Sudden episodes of intense fear that trigger severe physical reactions
- Racing heart, chest pain, shortness of breath, or feelings of choking
- Dizziness, lightheadedness, or feeling faint during attacks
- Trembling, sweating, chills, or hot flashes
- A sense of unreality or detachment from yourself
- Fear of losing control or “going crazy” during panic episodes
- Intense worry about when the next attack will occur
You've started to recognize how panic attacks are impacting your life:
- You avoid places or situations where panic attacks have occurred
- Your world is becoming increasingly restricted due to fear of panic
- Daily activities are planned around managing anxiety and preventing attacks
- Relationships and work performance may be suffering
- You’re developing “fear of fear” – anxiety about having anxiety
- Your confidence in your ability to navigate normal situations is eroding
- Traditional anxiety management techniques provide only limited relief
You’re wondering…
- Why do I have panic attacks when there’s no real danger present?
- Could my panic attacks be connected to past experiences I haven’t processed?
- How does EMDR therapy address panic differently than other approaches?
- Will I need to relive my worst panic attacks during EMDR treatment?
- How quickly can EMDR therapy help reduce the frequency or intensity of attacks?
- Can EMDR address both the symptoms and the underlying causes of panic?
- Is it possible to fully recover from panic disorder?
You’re longing for…
- Freedom from the grip of unexpected panic attacks.
- The ability to go anywhere without fear of having an attack.
- Understanding of the root causes of your panic symptoms.
- Confidence in your body’s natural processes without catastrophic interpretation.
- Effective tools to manage anxiety before it escalates to panic.
- Recovery of activities, places, or experiences you’ve been avoiding.
- A life not limited by the constant vigilance against panic.
How we can help you.
At Evergreen Counseling, we understand that panic attacks can be terrifying experiences that significantly impact your quality of life. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes that panic often has roots in earlier adverse experiences that have created heightened nervous system reactivity or negative beliefs about safety and control.
What you’re longing for is possible.
Our experienced EMDR therapists utilize this powerful approach to address both the symptoms of panic and their underlying causes. Through targeted therapeutic interventions, clients typically experience:
