Fear and its associated reaction(freeze, flight, fight) can be useful responses to a dangerous or threatening situation. However, experiences of reactions to firmly, too often, or in inappropriate situations can be distressing and exhausting. You will understand how you interpret the world around you in biased ways that may lead to the worst possible outcome or that our brain takes shortcuts that lead to biases and distortions. You will understand the role your brain plays in anxiety and strategies to use to reset and challenge the brain and bring it back into the present using activities that are healthy and enjoyable.

Both anxiety and stress serve a purpose in our lives; a small or healthy amount of it keeps us on our toes and striving to better ourselves. An over-abundance, though, makes life painful. Treatable forms of anixety include generalized anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety, panic disorder, and OCD. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR Therapy, and/or other strategies, we will work together to help you experience a much better quality of life. Believe it or not, you CAN find relief; you don't need to live with anxiety surrounding you or making you feel debilitated on your journey through life.

Anxiety is essential to keep us alert and aware of potential threats, however at times, our bodies stay in high alert, even when there is no immediate threat. This emotional outpouring of energies leave our thoughts lingering in a negative space. Emotions are primarily fear based and diminish our ability to think and see things clearly. Working with me you will learn to take control of your thoughts to prevent them from enticing anxiety in the body, and likewise, support strengthening your ability to tune into your body and calm the nervous system to settle the mind.

Heightened stress or anxiety is so common in our society that sometimes we fear that without the adrenaline rushing through our bodies, we would suffer from extreme boredom or worse, fall into a deep, dark depression. Unfortunately, the stress response that protects us in times of extreme danger actually harms us when left to run rampant. Finding safe, healthy ways to ‘self-soothe’ will increase physical health & also free you to enjoy your life more fully. Since we have absolutely no power to control anyone but ourselves & nothing but the present moment, decreasing our ‘stress response’ frees up energy that can be put into significant relationships & activities that bring life to us.

Anxiety is debilitating. Finding a way to manage and cope with anxiety rather than having anxiety take control of every part of your life can feel like climbing the highest mountain. While anxiety symptoms may be common, the triggers resulting in anxiety are very individual. Individual counselling can help identify triggers and build coping strategies to cope in healthy ways which will improve your overall mental health.

If you're up against anxiety, I offer an empowering and collaborative approach. There is an opportunity to explore your experience and to begin to see yourself as separate from anxiety. Through conversations, you may begin to identify alternative stories that challenge anxious thoughts and beliefs. We'd attend to your capacity and establish coping strategies to foster a sense of possibility. Together the we would co-create a new narrative that emphasizes the your resiliency, self-compassion and a greater sense of calm.

I support individuals tunderstand and cope with anxiety. The underlying purpose of anxiety is to keep an individual safe and away from harm. Due to complex mechanisms that influence the nervous system, individuals develop stress responses that can be adaptive strategies in the moment but become maladaptive over time, no longer serving one’s best interest. There may be many triggers that can generate overwhelming levels of anxiety in an individual that can difficult to cope with. I use CBT to help clients rewire their nervous system, reframe their belief system, recognize negative automatic thoughts and their generation stemming from critical incidents in childhood.
