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! It can be done.

Primarily physical ‘automatic’ experiences apparently by-passing our mental capacity to apprehend what is occurring to us, ranging from intense “panic attack” through steady discomfort, however always with a sense of disconnect: “Why's this happening? I've no reason to be so upset” Such states usually stem from high fear stressors in early life that have become unconscious and generalized (via overactive brain areas): steady vulnerability or prone to acute arousal via particular ‘triggers’. Therapy requires many approaches, esp enhancing body-awareness, graduated exposure/resilience building (vs avoidance actions), selfcare/comforting skills, ‘thought hygiene’, working through past traumas.

Anxiety and stress is commonly experienced. For many reasons, some of us have very busy and stress-filled lives. However, the cards you hold in the game of life mean very little. It's the way you play the hand that counts. Learning to manage the demands of our lives is a skill and an art. Therapy can help you to develop strategies to deal with anxiety and stress and find more contentment amidst challenges that come your way.

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!

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.

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 have been trained in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Anxiety disorder. In the high paced environment we live in today, it is typical to have stress in your life but what if it starts to impact your daily living? How can you function at your best if you don't have coping strategies or are able to recognize your body signals? While in therapy you have the opportunity to talk out the issues while learning the skills to manage day-to-day problems. The benefit to counseling is feeling empowered over this mental health diagnoses and working on a relapse prevention plan to assist you in the future.

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.

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.

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.

Are you stressed and anxious? Of course you are! Never has daily life been more full of complications and competing priorities; but focusing on changing our behaviours often leaves us feeling even more defeated. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which has been proven to be the most effective treatment for anxiety, allows us to focus on our core beliefs and how they create automatic thoughts, which create anxiety and cause damaging behaviours such as avoidance and withdrawal. In addition to CBT strategies, we will explore how your past experiences have created a roadmap for how you view yourself, others, and the world, and will work to repair any roadblocks caused by those experiences.

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. I believe that if you change your thoughts you change your world. The past does not have to rule your mind. We will work together to identify and change the thought patterns that create anxiety for you. I also use EEG Neurofeedback to shift brain wave patterns to support change.

If life were a video game, anxiety would be the boss at the end of each level. We might hide from it, or run from it, but sooner or later we're gonna have to face it. Like any heroic tale, we seldom start at the beginning and jump right to the end. Along the way we'll make sure you're equipped with the tools needed to confront even the most intimidating and powerful adversaries. Plus, what journey would be complete without help from trusted advisors and friends. No hero does it alone, and I look forward to joining you on your worthy quest.
