Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Three Hills, AB.

My approach to anxiety counselling and stress treatment is to determine what factors and beliefs contribute to your symptoms. We will work through sleep issues and process adverse and/or traumatic past experiences so that they become less disturbing and impactful on your present life. We will also work through negative thought patterns that impact your sense of self, increase fear and anxiety, and keep you from feeling motivated and fulfilled.

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 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. I can help you learn techniques to soothe your body, regain balance, and address the mind chatter that may be perpetuating your anxiety.

My approach to anxiety and stress blends evidence-based therapy with compassionate support. I help clients understand the roots of their worries—whether from past experiences, biological factors, or current pressures—while teaching practical tools to calm the nervous system and reframe unhelpful thought patterns. Using techniques from CBT, mindfulness, somatic therapy, and EMDR, we’ll work to reduce overwhelm, build resilience, and restore balance. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan to manage symptoms, reclaim control, address the root of the problem, and cultivate a life of greater ease and confidence.
