As the world has grown more complex, anxiety has become increasingly common for many. I understand what it is like to feel like anxiety is closing in and taking over. I help clients with developing a greater understanding into where anxiety originates, establishing practices and insights that help individuals to overcome fear and better regulate emotions. It is often the case that at the core of anxiety is an unconscious experience of perceived unsafety or disconnection. I support clients with developing a stronger foundation of inner safety and self-confidence by guiding an understanding of where unresolved life circumstances are contributing to an emergence of fear and worry.

I support my clients in addressing their anxiety and stress through the development of meaningful self-care strategies to keep them in becoming more self-compassionate. Learning how to engage the parasympathetic nervous system to counter the effects of an overactive sympathetic nervous system is essential in effectively managing stress and anxiety. If you find yourself struggling to view situations with a more compassionate lens, encouraging yourself to engage in behaviours that support your well-being, therapy can be an effective tool to get you the results you want.

For many of us, our stream of life is interrupted by events that are so stressful and scary that they create lasting change. This can be a single incident such as an assault or accident. Or, it could be recurring incidents that take place in the course of our work. It could also be trauma in our earliest years from our caregivers or in our first relationships. If you feel that something from your past is impacting your current life, trauma and stress focused therapy may be a good fit for you.

Dealing with anxiety and stress is a specialty of mine. I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify and honour the deep places your fear and shame reactions come from.

We are told that anxiety and stress are normal parts of everyday life that cause "ups and downs." However, when it becomes too much to handle or when it feels as though it is taking over our lives, it is time to take a step back and evaluate where we require some extra support. I address the management of anxiety and stress through a psychoeducational lens and help clients to understand their triggers, develop healthy coping strategies, and improve their ability to get through stressful times. Together, we can regain control over our anxiety and stress, rather than it controlling us!

Low levels of anxiety can motivate us to accomplish goals and perform at our best. As the level of experienced anxiety creeps higher, it robs us of our joy and can make us feel overwhelmed resulting in either inactivity or a compulsion to be overactive yet not experiencing any lasting relief. Our sense of internal peace and calm is replaced by perpetual overthinking and fear. Let's work together to gain insight into the root cause of your anxiety so that we are able to empower you to reclaim your experience of joy and a sense of internal calm.

Stress and anxiety are part of everyday life. Sometimes these emotions can motivate us to finish a project or draw our attention to issues that could be improved. Other times it can be uncomfortable and overwhelming leading to poor performance, isolation, and/or illness. Working on anxiety in psychotherapy can include learning to become more mindful and accepting of anxiety symptoms to reduce suffering. Or perhaps improved organizational skills or assertiveness to say “no” when there is already too much on our plate. Being able to reduce symptoms of anxiety or cope with them more effectively, can allow you to work towards the goals important to you and deepen your connection with others.

Anxiety and stress are two of the most common feelings with which individuals struggle. When these feelings are frequent and intense, often individuals’ emotions, functioning, performance and behaviour are negatively affected. Through counseling, I can help you discover your sources of stress and anxiety; and how to reduce and respond more appropriately to the causes of these feelings. By applying concepts learned through counseling, you will be able to feel and function better. This will result in more energy and improved performance and productivity (e.g., at home, work or school) and interacting more appropriately with others.

Anxiety and stress are normal, natural, and functional human experiences. At times, for many, anxiety and stress can start to feel overwhelming and all consuming and it may feel as if you're stuck and trapped in these difficult feelings. When we feel anxiety and stress it's our body's natural way of signalling to us that there is something we need to pay attention to and address, and it's our job to pay attention! When life feels overwhelming, it can often be helpful to seek the help of a compassionate and un-biased professional to help you explore what is challenging you, put voice to what is hard to talk about, and together learn strategies and tools to cope more effectively.
