How to Cope With The Anxiety of Getting Help

Anxiety is the gut feeling of something bad happening. It can go from as small as your heart racing when you feel potential danger to a full-on panic attack.  It can be described as “preparing for the worst and expecting the best” to worrying excessively about something that may or may not happen. A common way to describe it would be the feeling of being crazy and/or feeling out of control. Everyone has experienced anxiety at some point in their lives, but not everyone deals with it on a day to day basis. Anxiety is a reaction to the way we see things, the way we think, and the way we process information. It is the fight or flight response on steroids. The fight or flight response is a good thing and it is a primitive response to a harmful event. It protects you from danger and it helps you stay alive/stay out of trouble. However, when your brain continues to worry about something, that may or may not be dangerous, it goes from lifesaving to life crumbling. For those who say th

What Does a Healthy Marriage Look Like

Marriage is a relationship between two healthy adults who are willing to do whatever it takes to make the union successful.  Individuals are willing to do whatever family chores need to be done depending on who has the time, not what gender they are.  It has nothing to do with getting one’s way or being right. If parenting is involved in the relationship, disagreements concerning parenting are taken away from the children and worked out so that a united front will remain concerning the children.  This is so there is no message given to the children that one parent can be worked against the other.  Disagreements between spouses should be dealt with right away and kept to a simmering degree to show children that things can and will be worked out and to show them how it is done. Romance has to be maintained in the relationship irregardless of how many children there are in the family.  Regular dating and attention to romantic gestures need to be attended to in order to keep the r

Online Counseling for People with PTSD

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that is brought on by a terrifying event (either experiencing it or witnessing it). Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as reoccurring thoughts about the event. Many people who go through a traumatic event have great issues adjusting and coping in their everyday lives, but they don't have PTSD — with time and good self-care, they usually get better. But if the symptoms get worse or last for months or even years and interfere with your day to day functioning, you may very well have PTSD. If this is the case then seeking help is very important and can improve your quality of life greatly. At Let's Talk Counseling we have many Mental Health Professionals at your disposal to assist you.  Our website allows you to pick the right Professional to fit your needs in a safe/secure environment via our online video counseling sessions (HIPAA compliant and confidential).  To start
