We live in a time of great change. How can one be calm while dealing with both global stress plus impacts from a personal history? Fear, anxiety and strain are understandable. What can therapy do to help? First, talking to a supportive therapist provides a safe place, a gentle setting to learn new skills for coping with what stresses you. Like learning a new muscle skill, therapy provides a place for developing peace of mind. It’s similar to meditation, yoga, contemplation or other such internal skills. You can then find new attitudes for living so fear, worry and stress can be dialed down, perceived more as teachers. Rather than unending anxieties you can find opportunities for new growth.

Anxiety can feel like an endless loop of worry, restlessness, and overthinking that’s hard to escape. It often shows up in racing thoughts, physical tension, or difficulty focusing, leaving you drained and overwhelmed. Therapy helps you understand your anxiety and how it impacts your life. Together, we’ll explore triggers, reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, and develop tools to calm your mind and body. Anxiety doesn’t have to control you; with the right strategies, you can face challenges with greater confidence and ease. Therapy empowers you to reclaim your peace and live fully in the present.

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.

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.

Registered Psychotherapist

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.

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.

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.

Our anxiety is helpful to understand the risks we are experiencing in the world around us, but too much anxiety can leave us feeling drained, exhausted, lost, worried, and stressed. Learning how to manage anxiety, not disown it, is a critical part of feeling good about ourselves. Catch anxiety when it's really low, understand what it needs from you, and respond proactively. Yes!
