I utilize therapeutic interventions from Response-Based Practice, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

Anxiety and stress can affect more than how you feel inside. They can shape how you communicate, respond to conflict, connect with the people you love and experience yourself in relationships.

I offer anxiety and stress counselling that looks beyond simply managing symptoms to understand what may be happening underneath them. Using an emotion-focused approach, we can explore the patterns, fears and experiences that keep you stuck and help you respond to yourself and your relationships in healthier, more connected ways.

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 is part of the human experience. In fact, anxiety is a natural operational response in our brain to keep us safe and secure over our lifespan. However, sometimes our brains don't stop trying to keep us safe from phobias/fears and intense discomfort of uncertainty. This can result in unwanted distress and anxiety that can take over our lives and hold us back from our goals or enjoying life. I use approaches to help you through your experience of anxiety.
