Anxiety tends to be an epidemic in our fast paced, technologically advanced world. Our external experience is busy, and our internal experience is often busy in reaction.

Anxiety as a result of stress is one of, if not the major contributing factor to poor health in most areas of people lives. If you have ever been tense before an exam or a visit to the dentist, you have a felt anxiety. Increased heart rate, sweating, rapid breathing, dry mouth, & a sense of dread are common. Changing this involves cognitive & behavioural approaches. Cognitive change is understanding how thoughts contribute to symptoms and how to change thought patterns to reduce the intensity of your anxiety. And behavioral changes involve using techniques to reduce or stop any undesired behaviors that are a result of the anxiety you have been experiencing.

If you suffer from stress and anxiety you feel overwhelmed with worries and fears that something terrible may happen to you or someone close to you.

If you suffer from anxiety you join an estimated 14% of the population. You are not alone! Proven treatments that I utilize such as EMDR and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) are effective in lessening or eliminating the pain and suffering caused by anxiety.

We will also build a 'toolbox' of strategies to regulate your anxiety and stress (at the psychological and physiological levels).
