Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Sun Peaks, BC.

Anxiety and stress is very treatable with cognitive behavioural therapy. Ferne uses the new techniques to help reduce anxiety through examining fears, exposure therapy and relaxation tools. Ferne educates the individual about anxiety and the impact it can have on your life and relationships. She helps the individual come up with a treatment plan they can do successfully in small steps.

Feelings of anxiety can become so intense that it becomes overwhelming. Often individuals struggling with anxiety express constant intruding thoughts that focus on fears of events of the future. Anxiety can create physical feelings of distress like a tight chest that makes it difficult to breath, an upset or tight feeling in the stomach, and general fatigue from constantly trying to control their thoughts and actions. Some people have battled anxiety for so long that they begin to believe it is just who they are and accept the restrictions it causes in their life. Through counselling we will work to break the cycle of anxiety controlling your inner world. Bringing a sense of relief, control and freedom that has been absent for so long.

I find it rewarding to help clients strengthen their resilience, develop a self-care/wellness plan and improve coping to reduce the effects of loss, trauma, chronic illness, etc. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, parenting issues, a major decision, or just cumulative stress, I hope to help you develop your inner resources and find your clarity and equilibrium.

My approach to anxiety and stress treatment is rooted in creating a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel safe to explore the sources of their distress. Using mindfulness practices, and grounding techniques, I work to help clients identify and reframe anxious thoughts, manage physical symptoms, and build resilience. Together, we work on developing personalized coping strategies and tools that empower clients to face daily challenges with more confidence and calm. Clients benefit from gaining a deeper understanding of their anxiety triggers, improving emotional regulation, and building a stronger sense of control and well-being in their lives.

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. I will help you change your relationship with your thoughts so they have less power and control over you. When we give in and avoid things due to anxiety we end up feeling pretty isolated. I will teach you tools and strategies to get through your stress and anxiety.

Anxiety and stress are normal reactions to many situations or to uncertainties in life. However, if your stress and anxiety are so severe that they interfere with your daily living (school, work, home, relationships, social interactions), it is a good idea to seek counselling. Getting counselling early can greatly improve the outcome As your counsellor I can help you work through your stress and anxiety by using strategies to get your life back in balance so that you are able to function more effectively in your daily life. We will also work together to develop a plan to help you cope during those unexpected critical times that inevitably happen that cause you stress and anxiety.

All of us experience anxiety and fear at some level, but when it is getting in the way of our day to day living we need strategies to help us deal with the fear, panic and unpleasant feelings and thoughts that result.

Stress and Anxiety is one of the top concerns of our clients. Stress effects our entire lives, personally, professionally and the ripple effext ois felt by all individuals we are in contact with.

We'll explore how anxiety manifests not just in your thoughts but in your nervous system, creating a comprehensive map of your experience. I'll help you identify and build a relationship with the parts of you that carry anxiety-perhaps parts that worry to keep you safe or that push you to meet high standards-while learning to aces your calm, grounded Self. Through gentle somatic practices, you'll develop skills to regulate your nervous system, transforming your relationship with anxiety from one of fear to one of understanding. You will not only experience relief but also develop inner resilience that allows you to navigate life's uncertainties with greater ease, presence and self-trust.

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.

Anxiety and stress are normal responses to life events, work and relationship/family pressures, and worry and fear. In therapy we can explore the context of your life and relationships and how these relate to the stress and anxiety. Through individual or family counselling we can develop goals and strategies for addressing the stress or anxiety. I utilize therapeutic interventions from Response-Based Practice, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

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.
