Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Streetsville, ON.

Anxiety and stress can be ever present in the hustle and bustle of today’s society. I know first-hand how consuming these experiences can be and how much it can take to overcome them. When working with anxiety, it can be helpful to get to know the root causes of the anxiety so that we can identify and tackle it in any situation.

I can offer a clear route through anxiety to help you get to calmer place. Initially we may use grounding and breath-work techniques to achieve immediate relief, followed by EMDR or another trauma-clearing modality to begin to break down the roots of the anxiety. Ultimately though, I work with you to hear what the anxiety has to say to you about the kind of life you want to live, and about what actually matters most to you.

Life is hard. It can also be wonderful. Flux and flow. Often anxiety is created by a faulty belief system, and by the way the human brain works...I will explain in session...with what we now know about the brain and how it works, we know that we have a lot more power over our thoughts than we used to think we have. We CAN begin to shift our thinking. Yes, sometimes medication is also needed, especially as we learn how to have more control over our thoughts.

Integration of talk therapy with holistic body centred modalities: Giving space for the client to explore and express feelings, own awareness’s, transform thoughts, grieve, vent, and neutralize guilt, anger and fear.

In many cases, an integrative approach of cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and psychotherapy is used to help you manage stress and anxiety. Cognitive-behavioural therapy aims to help you change your emotional response and behaviour by changing your thoughts. If our thoughts happen so quickly and automatically, how can we change a stress response that is perpetuated by such challenging or negative thoughts? Using cognitive-behavioural strategies, we can slow down the thought process by creating a heightened awareness of them. As we observe them, we can make significant changes in our automatic thoughts, and subsequently, change our emotional response and the way we respond as a result.

Untreated anxiety has the potential to reappear throughout a person's life. This is why it is so important to seek treatment as soon as symptoms arise. Here at Whiteboard, we believe there are two realities in life: 1) Everyone has some level of anxiety; 2) No one should be crippled by the fallout from that anxiety. Racing thoughts, mood swings, difficult emotions — these are all hallmarks of anxiety which require treatment. Our treatment approach involves breaking down the component parts of a client's anxiety in order for them to better understand the motivating factors behind it. Once this occurs, steps are taken to help clients understand the steps they need to take to discover freedom.

Anxiety is generally understood as worry about something that hasn't happened yet. For example, we have anxiety about an upcoming job interview. We worry we won't perform well, or that we'll make a fool of ourselves. This worry can be helpful in pushing us to prepare, but can also be harmful in causing us undue stress and overwhelm. In therapy for anxiety, we'll work to identify where our anxiety surfaces, how it impacts our function, and pragmatic ways to help ourselves when we're feeling anxious.
