Cognitive behaviour therapy, desensitization therapy, and hypnotherapy (all of which I practice) are often tremendously helpful. I have been a psychologist for 31 years, and I can help.

Being anxious, feeling stressed to the max takes a toll on ourselves and our relationships. Exploring the reasons for feeling stressed such as feeling out of control, fear, or worried about what others may think is one of the steps of dealing with anxiety or stress. Also exploring healthy coping strategies can reduce the symptoms. Learning to stay in the moment, instead of past or future, increases your ability to enjoy what is happening now instead of feeling like life is passing you by.

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.

Some things build you up and some wear you down. Over time, anxiety and stress can destroy your health and confidence but you can learn how to handle or get rid of the worries that are keeping you awake at night or showing up in other negative ways. Clients have told me that the information I have provided them with has stopped their panic attacks, helped them to view things differently and taught them how to relax.

As we navigate our own lives and life goals, along with developing moral values we may become overwhelmed. Together we can explore and come to understand areas of strength and growth. It can be difficult when we are searching for our own identity. I support clients in addressing a range of issues. Through mindful & caring interaction, a strong, trusting, open relationship can be forged and changes can be made.
