During any kind of performance, it is perfectly natural for
anxiety
to increase as part of the body's stress response. However, too much anxiety can
freeze
your body and mind, making it difficult to execute the task at hand and possibly even leading to a
choking
experience.
For many, underachieving or choking once can lead to fears of repeated episodes. If this is a problem you or a loved one are having, then Dr. Kaufman can help.
Among those that may benefit from his
performance anxiety management
services are:
- Athletes
- Students
- Musicians
- Actors and actresses
- Public speakers
- Couples
- Employers
- Employees
- Entrepreneurs
- And many more...
