Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Schomberg, ON.

Everyone experiences stress, and stress can be positive motivation to get things done. But when stress escalates it can be experienced as anxiety. Anxiety can arise when we lose touch with our feelings. In an anxious state, our bodies produce cortisol, leaving us in a fight or flight state. I try to help people understand the nature of their stresses and regulate stress through meditative, mindful or breathing practices. We explore the internal experiences – the feelings and emotions that escalate stress into anxiety. Learning to address these feelings gives us tools to deal effectively with challenging feelings, thereby developing a healthy sense of inner awareness and control.

Coping with stress can be normal for you, interfere with lifestyle and even become panic attacks. Having experienced anxiety, I can understand your struggle and offer practical suggestions for you. Recognizing signs of stress, learning new coping skills, and identitying your specific triggers are part of counselling. Action steps to cope with panic attacks may be helpful to you and those who support you. Retraining the brain with CBT and expressing emotions in a healthy way are counselling opportunities to reduce anxiety and stress in your life and relationships.

We all experience some form of stress in meeting the various challenges of life, but sometimes we can get overwhelmed. In counselling, I work with you to understand your own process of stress and anxiety, and then we can work together on ways of dealing effectively with the people and situations you find particularly challenging at this time in your life.

Anxiety is internalized prolonged internal stress. Often people are afraid because they have never owned up to themselves. It is completely understandable with the world we live in today and all the expectations placed on we can often become overwhelmed. It can be a forever on going pressure from anything such as, ageing; being alone; illness losing a job/family member/possession. Things that require action can also be heavy stress factors; relationships; losing weight; intimacy; career. Our inner state of mind; feeling rejected, like a failure; low self-image. Etc. "This is not true you have handled everything up till now". Reaching out for support is the first step to creating change.
