Facing Fear with Guidance (TSE)

TSE, called Terapia de Shock Emotivo in Spanish, is my guided approach to exploring fear, anxiety and distress through conversation and attention exercises.

What to expect

How we work

We begin with a specific situation you would like to face. We notice the thoughts, emotions and body sensations that come up. Then we choose a guided exercise to approach that experience at your pace. You can speak or ask for a pause at any time.

Topics we can explore

  • Anxiety and distress
  • Fears and phobias
  • Fear of leaving home or driving
  • Fear of being alone
  • Worry that something bad will happen
  • Situations you have started to avoid
  • Body sensations linked to fear

TSE is the Spanish name for this emotional work. Before each exercise, we talk about what we will do and how you are feeling.

Let’s talk about what you need.

We can talk about what brings you here and choose the tools that make sense for you.
