Understanding The Anxious Brain #14

Life in today’s fast-paced world is complex, with more stressors and less direct social support than in past generations. Being anxious is a normal part of life. However, people sometimes experience prolonged periods of anxiety that can affect their social, work, or personal lives. The good news is that our understanding of the fight-or-flight response has led to well-researched, effective treatments and coping methods. Our guest on this episode is Carolyn Robistow. Carolyn is a Licensed Professional Counselor whose specialty is helping people-pleasing perfectionists with Anxiety and OCD. She also works as an alcohol relationship coach for grey area drinkers.  Most of her clients are high achievers who feel like, despite the successes they've had in life and on paper, they are stuck and unable to reach their full potential because of hidden, mental battles, whether it be anxiety, OCD, or an unhealthy relationship with alcohol.  She uses a technique called Brainspotting to help people get unstuck.
