It's critical to understand that, even if you suffer from panic attacks, compulsive thoughts, ongoing worry, or a phobia, you don't have to live in fear and anxiety. In many cases, therapy is the most effective strategy to handle anxiety-related problems. Therapy gives you the skills and teaches you how to use them to overcome anxiety. If stress is not managed, it can become chronic stress and ultimately lead to burnout. While burnout leaves people feeling completely exhausted and unmotivated to keep going, stress often results in people feeling overwhelmed. Therapy provides coping mechanisms for stress symptoms, which may help to avoid burnout.

We all experience stress and anxiety from time to time, but sometimes the anxiety response can be exaggerated or over-activated which can interfere with our daily functioning. When anxiety gets to that point, it is no longer adaptive and needs to be addressed. Through a combination of identifying triggers, understanding how your thoughts influence your feelings, behaviours, and physical sensations, and developing effective coping and relaxation strategies, therapy can help you manage your anxiety and stress better and help you regain control of your life.

Anxiety and stress have become all too common in our lives, often going unnoticed or even normalized and dismissed. My goal is to support you as you explore the various aspects of your life that are contributing to such anxiety and stress as well as uncovering the factors that influence your ‘window of tolerance’—the space where you can manage stress effectively. Together, we’ll identify your strengths and resources that will help you expand your ability to cope. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.

Stress, Anxiety, and phobias can leave you feeling immobilized and powerless and unable to cope well. I can help you develop sound strategies to reducing your symptoms, help manage them, and to eradicate some of these from your life. I have successfully done so using the following modalities: Hypnotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness Techniques, and Energy Therapies, and using strategies that promote neuroplasticity which have helped to change distorted thinking and feeling patterns.

In working with clients on their anxiety and stress I primarily aim to promote understanding: understanding of why we are feeling so anxious and stressed, what factors contribute, what can be done to better manage or eliminate anxiety and stress from our lives, and most importantly, how to eliminate ambiguity from our lives. I specialize in working with clients on their stress and anxiety, whether it stems from work, relationships, family, trauma, lifestyle, or beliefs. It is only through understanding that we can promote comprehensive and meaningful change in our lives. I utilize principles of cognitive behavioural therapy, solution-focused work, and psychodynamics in my work.

Oftentimes people view anxiety as a bad feeling, however, through their work with me clients often find ways to live with their anxiety and turn the situation around. Anxiety is generally a fear of a wide variety of things, by addressing the roots of the anxiety and understanding that it can be faced head on, clients often find relief from the things that make them anxious. My work with anxiety is always gradual and clients are first made comfortable with their anxiety and then learn to cope and at times reduce anxieties where appropriate.

In these unprecedented times in our lives many of us are dealing with feelings of great uncertainty about our individual future and how to handle and cope with life changes. Repetitive thoughts are often aligned with anxiety. Anxiety has a cyclical pattern and unless it is interrupted it will run its course, causes overwhelming feelings of fear and despair. Through a compassionate and observational lens reducing stress and anxiety will cultivate focus and clarity. Learning to connect to our senses is very grounded and can quickly break the anxiety cycle and help bring us back to our own center. Book a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Stress and anxiety when present within healthy limits can stimulate, motivate, challenge, warn and activate our bodies to react accordingly to the situation. When it's too much, too intense and for too long, stress and anxiety lead to poor functioning, impairment and exhaustion resulting in stress and anxiety overload, contributing heavily to triggering anxiety disorders. In my therapy, I use therapeutic approaches and techniques that help reduce stress and anxiety and enhance the quality of your life and build your emotional resilience. You develop skills to minimize distress and maximize efficacy in many areas of your living and live life in a happier and healthier manner

Stress and anxiety is a part of everyone's day to day lives. However, when it becomes difficult to function due to loss of sleep, change in appetite, panic attacks, upset stomach, aches & pains, etc. therapy can be most beneficial. I use various relaxation techniques, deep breathing, mindfulness meditation, as well as talk therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques (addressing self defeating automatic thinking patterns which effect our mood and behavior). I can teach you how to manage unpleasant symptoms related to stress and anxiety.

Anxiety and Stress can be such a plague to people who suffer from them. These symptoms can be extremely debilitating and frustrating. Suffering from these long enough will lead to other problems such as anger or depression. My goal for working with clients is to explore these symptoms, their origin, and a client's best hopes of living a life beyond just the impact of these symptoms.

Everyone feels anxiety at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although anxiety can feel debilitating, it is treatable. People with anxiety don’t always share the same symptoms, they vary from person to person. Therapy will help you to reclaim your life and function in a chronically stressful world.
