Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Beltline, Calgary, AB.

I love to work with individuals to empower them to conquer severe anxiety and manage stress responses more confidently. I use a variety of practical and effective techniques designed to foster relaxation, mindfulness, grounding and emotional regulation. I also use a lot of psychoeducation in this process to help individuals understand the mechanisms behind the nervous system's response to fear and stress. I will support you through your work of confronting your fears, building resilience and fostering long-term emotional well-being.

Anxiety and stress management is my primary specialty. Anxiety takes many different forms - whether it is the constant on edge and I have to fix it feeling, the perpetual what-if and worrying cycle, your mind racing each time you try to relax, or that 'wired' feeling in the body. I draw from a variety of counselling modalities depending on what fits you best - this might include looking at your thoughts and core beliefs, getting to work more on your value system and knowing what matters, or bringing more compassion to yourself. You can expect to learn strategies you can use between sessions, so you can spend less time in therapy and more time connecting to what matters.

Anxiety often has people identifying strongly with it. If you have a problem with anxiety, you are certainly not alone! Everyone affected by Anxiety has a unique relationship with it. Narrative therapy investigates how Anxiety keeps you away from the pleasures of life and explores new opportunities to gain control over your life.

Stress is the body’s natural reaction to danger. It’s meant to help identify a problem that needs your attention to fix. However, when the stress lasts too long, it can start to impact our physical and mental health. In my practice we look at understanding the root of all stress or anxiety and together we create practical, meaningful coping strategies.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they don’t treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people don’t believe it or you! Imagine if you can trick the brain into changing without you telling your conscious mind that you are changing it? Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists.

Anxiety and Stress are the norm in today's world. Our fast-paced society pulls our attention in many directions and often away from ourselves. Being disconnected from our feelings, needs and wants is often a cause of anxiety. Mindfulness-based counselling is a powerful way to have us create an island of sanity for ourselves amidst the speed of our lives. By learning to reconnect with ourselves amidst the busyness of life, we are put back into relationship with our hearts and what is truly meaningful to us.
