Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Port Moody, BC.

Anxiety and Stress can be related to a number of things going on in our lives at a given time. Typically it is how we perceive the stressors in our life, or the feeling that we don't have the resources to cope that determines whether or not we feel anxious, stressed, or overwhelmed. If we are unable to get into a RECOVERY zone, anxiety and stress can quickly seem to spin out of control and EVERYTHING may feel too hard. I use Cognitive and Behavioural, Mindfulness, and Ego State therapies to help individuals quickly acquire the tools, and insights that help them reduce the Anxiety symptoms and navigate their anxiety triggers. Moreover, they regain a sense of calm and control in their lives.

Anxiety often manifests physically, storing tension in various areas of the body such as the chest, shoulders, or stomach. In our sessions, we gently explore, observe, and examine these somatic sensations to build somatic awareness and safety within your nervous system. Because anxiety is frequently rooted in the anticipation of future experiences, we bring compassionate curiosity to these fears, helping you process the underlying emotional triggers. To support grounding and emotional regulation, we incorporate somatic practices like Emotional Freedom Techniques (tapping) and body scanning.

Anxiety can create fears, threat safety, clients need to recognise their stress levels, their coping skills, and how their respond to stress. My treatment plan involves searching ways to help clients talk through strategies for comprehending and coping with anxiety. Understanding how they regulate their emotions when faced with stress and discovering the underlying issues behind the anxiety, is vital to the healing process.

Through collaborative goal-setting and validation, counseling empowers individuals to build resilience, enhance self-care practices, and cultivate a greater sense of calm and mastery in navigating life's challenges.

Anxiety comes in many forms - constant worrying, a sense of loss of control, or the overwhelming feeling that something is going to go wrong. As humans, we all experience some level of anxiety, it's a part of our normal stress response to help motivate us and even keep us safe by thinking ahead to danger. However, when we get stuck in this experience and feel held back, it can be helpful to talk to a therapist. My approach to anxiety is to help you understand your unique reactions and triggers and guide you in building further strategies and tools to cope with anxiety in a way that is manageable and healing.

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health issues. If you are feeling anxious, you are not alone. Anxiety can be crippling and can drain our energy to enjoy life. The good news is that anxiety is also very treatable. When working with anxiety, I use my clinical experience to tailor my approach to your specific situation. We will focus on what tools will be most useful for you to regulate your anxiety and will also discuss the roots of your anxiety. We will get curious about what anxiety is trying to tell you about the emotions that need to be addressed or the changes that need to be made in your life. We will work together to find your inner calm again.

I primarily work with anxiety from an EMDR/body-based perspective. Anxiety is a very "old" physiological response, in that there are parts of anxiety that are unconscious rather than "cognitive." I typically find that if we only attend to the cognitive side of anxiety, the physiological parts, such as body memory and activation, will find somewhere else to pop up. By working on the physical activation, we can better address and move through the anxiety.

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. You may find yourself overthinking, worrying about your relationship, feeling overwhelmed, becoming reactive, or shutting down when things feel like too much. 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.

Stress and anxiety are a normal part of being human, but when they begin to take up too much space in your life, it can feel exhausting. These experiences exist on a spectrum, and you don't need to wait until things feel extreme before reaching out for help. Therapy offers a supportive space to explore what's contributing to your stress, learn strategies to manage anxious thoughts, and build a greater sense of balance, confidence, and emotional resilience.

I offer counseling that can help you change your thinking patterns that trigger your anxiety. This will help you change the way you react to anxiety-provoking situations.

With my support, many with anxiety disorders can lead normal fulfilling lives.
