Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Bayview Point, ON.

Anxiety and stress are common responses to life stressors and signal that we require rest. Our therapists help uncover the potential causes and provide coping skills to help reduce symptoms. Decision making is difficult when feeling overwhelmed with anxiety or stress. If you decide to access counselling for anxiety and stress, we will assist you to find tools to help.

Anxiety is a normal response to stress, but can become debilitating when the stress is ongoing, overwhelming and inescapable. Learning how to manage anxiety is a critical life skill because it affects both the mind and the body. Dwelling on the future prevents us from living in the moment, and psychotherapy can offer tools and coping skills to help re-regulate our body and find relief from overthinking and relentless mental chatter.

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.

While a certain amount of stress and anxiety is normal, and can actually be beneficial when it warns us that something is 'off' or helps to keep us motivated; it becomes problematic when the worries never shut off, or when fear or panic prevent us from fully engaging in life. If anxiety is negatively interfering in your day-to-day life, if you are losing sleep or often feeling overwhelmed, if you are avoiding certain situations, or if it is contributing to physical symptoms - reach out. With a combination of cognitive and behavioural strategies, I can help you to manage the overwhelm, so that you can 'stand up' to anxiety and face life with greater confidence and ease.

I offer therapy for clients experiencing stress and anxiety, providing a compassionate and supportive environment to explore their concerns. Through evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and relaxation exercises, I help clients identify triggers, manage symptoms, and develop effective coping strategies. My goal is to empower clients to regain control, reduce their stress levels, and enhance their overall well-being, fostering a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Anxiety prevents you from being present and puts you in a position where you are either ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. In the moment, it can feel impossible to get out of it, and one cannot simply snap out of it. Similarly, stress can permeate multiple aspects of your life. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as mindfulness exercises to help you manage your anxiety. Eventually, we would also work together to understand why the anxiety shows up and how we can address the original source. Reach out today to book a free consultation.
