Our world is busy and most of us have a lot of pressures and expectations on us. There are a number of important strategies to deal with life’s stressors. How we approach stress makes a big difference! Anxiety is when we feel a lot of fear and worry and experience life events as more threatening than they actually are. In addition to strategies for anxiety it’s is helpful to unravel the thoughts and beliefs systems that cultivate it.

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.

Daily life inevitably brings with it a certain level of anxiety and stress, that everybody experiences to some degree. Are you finding yourself too overwhelmed by the stress and confusion? I can work with you to develop strategies and coping methods so that these stressful situations are manageable. We can work together to ensure that you have the tools to balance the areas of your life that are causing you stress, whether they are relationship, work or health related.

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.

Anxiety and stress are sometimes helpful responses and can carry important information for us about our current lives. However, they can also be overwhelming and come with sensations that are difficult to tolerate.

Anxiety and stress are common and normal experiences, but they can be debilitating if not managed. Targeting clients' relationship to their own anxiety and stress is critical to moving beyond coping and toward lasting improvement. I use multiple therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Family Systems therapy.

Anxiety and stress are experiences that many of us face, and it's completely normal to feel overwhelmed at times. These feelings can trap us and impact our relationships, work, and overall quality of life. In my therapy practice, I prioritize a compassionate and understanding approach, utilizing various cognitive therapies, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT can be a powerful tool for addressing anxiety and stress. It helps to identify and shift negative thought patterns and behaviours and empowers individuals to develop effective coping strategies. If you're ready, I invite you to book a free 15-minute phone consultation to explore how I can support you.

Are you feeling worried or anxious all the time? Have you started avoiding certain people, places, or things? Anxiety can present with physical symptoms and prevent us from doing things we love. Anxiety can feel scary, and even result in panic attacks. Therapy can help with understanding your personal anxiety symptoms, find individualized coping tools and even provide treatment. Stress looks so different for everyone and can stem from both negative, and positive life events (marriage, kids, buying a house, travelling). Counselling for stress will likely include some form of CBT, problem solving and examining current coping skills.
