Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Emerson, MB.

Anxiety and stress have been on the rise in recent years. Not only are these bodily experiences unpleasant, they can be incredibly overwhelming. Crippling, even. Clients often find it helpful to better understand what's happening in their body when they experience anxiety and stress. In addition to this, our work will involve getting to know what activates and sustains anxiety/stress in your life (and exploring opportunities for change where it might be helpful, but this greatly depends on the cause). We will also build a 'toolbox' of strategies to regulate your anxiety and stress (at the psychological and physiological levels).

If you're struggling with anxious thoughts, you may find it hard to focus. The fight or flight alarm is going off in your brain, constantly sending you messages starting with "what if...." If worrying is keeping you trapped in a hamster wheel, tired, but unable to rest, you may find yourself turning to addictive substances or behaviours to cope. As an addiction counsellor, I help clients cope with the anxious thoughts keeping them trapped in addictive behaviours. By uncovering these underlying thoughts, I help you develop coping skills so you can gain a sense of focus, clarity, confidence, and freedom from constantly overthinking. Send me a message and I'll guide you through the next steps.

Are you living your life constantly feeling on-edge? Are you a worrier who can't seem to turn it off? Does anxiety or stress keep you from being fully present for your family? As an anxiety and stress specialist, I know rough this can be. But there is hope. Together, we can deploy powerful techniques to get you feeling calm, relaxed, and emotionally thriving, so you can effectively deal with life challenges. Imagine: going about your day feeling excited rather than worried, confident rather than stressed, and focused rather than scattered. If you’re ready to stop worrying and start living, reach out.

Stress and anxiety are a normal part of life; stress can occur when any event or thought causes you to feel frustrated, angry, or nervous. Anxiety is a feeling of fear, unease, dread, and worry. The source of anxiety symptoms is not always known. For some people, anxiety persistently interferes with daily activities such as work, school or sleep. This type of anxiety can disrupt relationships and enjoyment of life. Whatever form of anxiety or stress you experience I believe that counseling can help restore functioning, relationships, and overall well being. I provide a safe, non-judgemental environment for my client's as they journey towards wholeness and freedom.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they don’t treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people don’t believe it or you! Imagine if you can trick the brain into changing without you telling your conscious mind that you are changing it? Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists.
