Anxiety and stress? Who in today's society is not struggling with these to some extent? These emotions are often our bodies way of telling us that we are overwhelmed and need to either make changes in our lives or change how we react to things happening in our lives.

Some of these include: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, EMDR, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused therapy and Narrative Therapy.

Anxiety and stress can be confusing and overwhelming, and result in both negative emotional and physical symptoms. Counselling for anxiety or stress provides the opportunity to discover and implement effective coping strategies, identify triggers, and explore and process new ways of engaging with the world around you. Having someone safe to talk to is an effective strategy in and of itself, connect with me today and we can walk out this journey together.

Stress and anxiety is a part of everyone's day to day lives. However, when it becomes difficult to function due to loss of sleep, change in appetite, panic attacks, upset stomach, aches & pains, etc. therapy can be most beneficial. I use various relaxation techniques, deep breathing, mindfulness meditation, as well as talk therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques (addressing self defeating automatic thinking patterns which effect our mood and behavior). I can teach you how to manage unpleasant symptoms related to stress and anxiety.

Anxiety can be a productive and useful tool in helping us understand and interpret our environment. However, when anxiety is chronic, it can take a significant toll on both physical and mental health, ultimately effecting all facets of our lives. I like to examine the causes of anxiety and understand what anxiety is attempting to communicate and protect one from. In doing so, I hope to reframe anxiety, foster acceptance and welcome healing and change. I am also a strong believer in self-care and giving oneself permission to rest, which is imperative in stress and anxiety management.
