My mission as a mentor is to alleviate mental health disorders one person at a time.  

What has worked for you and what hasn’t?  Have you been less than satisfied with
results from the methods you’re currently practicing to manage your anxiety or panic
disorder?  Do you believe there’s something else out there that could bring you ever
closer to being anxiety free?

In June 2002 when I hit bottom, I was fortunate to work with three incredible female
practitioners who believed I could achieve mental wellness.  They showed me that
tackling my panic disorder meant pulling out all the stops, being open to all options
and having the courage to do whatever it would take to conquer my mental health
disorder and free myself from the daily anxiety and panic attacks, including the fear
that came with them.

During my journey of recovery, I’ve discovered, through my own experience, that
medication alone did not alleviate all my symptoms.  It took a combination approach
to get ever closer to the ultimate goal of being free from panic attacks and anxiety.

I believe The Key to Recovery takes a multi-level approach.  There is no magic bullet
but with the right combination of therapies and techniques, recovery from anxiety is
achievable.

Recovering from anxiety and panic disorder is a daily practice.  It’s about recognizing
what will help bring you closer to being anxiety-free, talking openly about your mental
health with doctors and therapists, refusing to take no for an answer and ultimately
taking charge of your recovery and overall mental wellness.

Anxiety is a fear-based disorder, which can stem from past traumas, real or
imagined.  The subconscious brain can’t tell the difference.  A similar or seemingly
unrelated present day event can push the buttons created in your past which
magnifies your current anxiety level.

As a mentor, my goal is to offer hope, support and guidance so you can achieve
recovery…once we find the right set of practitioners, techniques and therapists that
work best for you. Your goal is to work with people who believe in your recovery as
much as my practitioners believed in mine.  Working together, our goal is to create
your personal anxiety recovery road map.

Together we’ll explore the many therapies, techniques and treatments that can allow
you to have more success achieving recovery.  I believe there are a vast amount of
options available that may not be discussed with you by some doctors and
therapists.  Together we’ll discuss how to screen or interview prospective therapists,
doctor and practitioners before you have a face-to-face appointment.  I believe that if
a practitioner is comfortable with his or her skills, they should be comfortable offering
a brief, complimentary phone consultation to see if you are a match.

If you are having a psychiatric emergency, please call 911 or go to your
nearest emergency room or urgent care facility.

This web site is not intended to replace professional medical or mental
health treatment. I recommend that ALL of those experiencing Panic or
Anxiety Disorder seek professional help as soon as possible. The sooner
one seeks help, the more likely they are to start seeing results.  There are
excellent treatments available and many provide lasting results.

This web site is a Panic and Anxiety support service by a non-medical/mental
health professional who personally experienced Panic Disorder.  Mentoring
can be useful in addition to other techniques and treatments you are
currently practicing.
