Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Warfield, BC.

The last few years have been difficult. If you are experiencing anxiety or feeling stressed out and overwhelmed, know that you are not alone. Counselling is a great place to come and learn some skills for coping with anxieties, reduce stress, and become more present in your life. Whether your anxiety is specific, such as social anxiety or workplace anxiety, or more generalized, counselling can help.

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.

While our bodies are perfectly designed to adapt and react to stress, modern problems mean that we tend to detect life threatening dangers in very ordinary places. Conflicts at work, arguments in our relationships and uncertainties within our interpersonal relationships. We may be stuck in the buzzing state of ‘fight-flight’ or the numb and paralyzed states of ‘freeze and shut down.’ The good news is that I have a long history of safely and successfully helping individuals and couples to reduce and release stress using a variety of CBT and mindfulness techniques, as well as trauma-informed therapy. You have my commitment to compassionate and educated care.

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.

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 can feel relentless — tight chest, racing mind, constant what-ifs. I support people as they attempt to break free from those cycles. In our work, you’ll learn how anxiety operates in your nervous system, why it keeps showing up, and how to respond to it differently. Using practical strategies and a steady therapeutic presence, we’ll reduce overwhelm and restore a sense of clarity and control. You don’t have to keep living in fight-or-flight.
