Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Langford, BC.

I use therapeutic insights and my own experience to guide you. If stress and anxiety paralyses you and is hurting those you love, and you don't know what to do, professional assistance is called for. Feelings of anxiety result from our reality and how we look at this reality. Our perspective is shaped by our experience and thinking. By understanding emotionally why you are where you are and why you feel about this the way you will be helpful. By keeping judgment at bay, the emotional space for other insights and options that can help you manage your anxiety better and to discover what you need to do to move beyond your anxiety, will develop.

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.

We live in a fast paced 24/7 world dealing with social media, technology and lots of things to worry about in the media. No wonder we are all a little anxious these days.

Together the we would co-create a new narrative that emphasizes the your resiliency, self-compassion and a greater sense of calm.

I offer an integrative blend of somatic awareness, mindfulness practices, relational attunement, and trauma-informed presencing to help my clients address anxiety and stress in their lives. Using your natural healing process as our guide, we can help the nervous system learn what a peaceful state of health and vitality is again. I offer EMDR and other trauma processing approaches to support you in your healing when appropriate.

Anxiety and stress can leave you feeling constantly on edge, overwhelmed, trapped in overthinking, or unable to fully relax. You may find yourself worrying about the future, replaying past conversations, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling disconnected from your own needs.

Using a blend of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic approaches, you'll learn to relate to yourself with greater compassion, feel more grounded, and develop lasting tools to navigate life's challenges with greater ease and confidence.
