Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Niverville, MB.

To be alive is to endure some angst. But we often become needlessly knotted up and wracked with worry about so many future events - things which will largely never come to pass. I help bring you away from speeding ahead, back to yourself. I utilize Cognitive Behavioural training and tools, but also a vibrant and interactive understanding of what is driving your stress and anxiety.

Feeling stressed out? Anxious? Most of us do from time to time. Moderates levels of stress are good, but sress has a cumulative impact - one stressful situation upon another and another. It may involve finances, jobs, housing, health, relationships ... Stress is exhibited in worry, panic, low self-esteem and depression. Chronic stress has a devasting impact, eventually leading to poor work performance, burnout and a variety of physical and emotional health issues. The good news is that we can manage stress and cope effectively. I will help you to identify your souces of stress and learn new strategies to limit and manage the stress and anxiety you're experiencing.

For anxiety and stress treatment, I integrate mindful exercises in helping my clients to be grounded. Be using five senses in walking, drinking, eating, and doing other things, for example, washing dishes, to help my clients to be able to live at present. I may ask my clients which part of their body they could feel the tightness or chronic pain. It can bring awareness for my clients by paying attention to how their bodies react to the stress unconsciously. Tapping exercise is one of the interventions I use with my clients to stimulate their vagus nerves to release their tension.

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.

We live in a world full of stress. How can we manage the stress in our lives so that it does not deplete our energy or resources? You will learn what uniquely stresses you and how to effectively manage it. Anxiety can paralyze even the most confident person if it becomes a part of life. We go to the roots of the anxiety so that there is a release of power in those areas where anxiety was most restrictive.

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 is made up of thoughts, feelings, and body sensations. I work with clients to slow down to become aware of what anxiety is made up for them, and to support them to develop more creative responses and resources to strike a new, healthier balance, even when anxiety arises.
