Often when we encounter the pain from trauma we run from the danger, we freeze and get stuck or we go into fight mode to defend ourselves. We do this for good reason. This is how we were wired for protection from threat. At some point along the way we begin to realize that these responses may have helped us in the past when we were in survival mode but they are no longer serving us. We can learn to reflect on our past experiences with compassion and curiosity. Therapy approaches such as Internal Family Systems Therapy and EMDR can help to calm our nervous systems, heal our inner child and integrate our pain and distress in order to move forward as our true selves with more peace and joy.

Chronic anxiety and stress can very quickly lead to bigger problems than burnout. However, life is unpredictable, and anxiety and stress are something that no one can ever be entirely free from. Learn how to listen and respond to your body, and build healthy coping skills to navigate periods of increased distress with a greater sense of control. They may be inevitable, but anxiety and stress don't have to run the show.

Anxiety is our body’s way of getting us ready for action, getting us ready to fight or flee in a given situation which, while helpful in keeping us alive, can be very unhelpful when it negatively impacts our ability to live our daily lives. I work collaboratively with clients to explore how anxiety and stress show up in their lives, and to strengthen and develop strategies to minimize the impact they have on living the life you want to live. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

Anxiety and stress affect each of us a little differently, such as feeling on edge, irritability, tension, worry and many other reactions. Kindred Hope Wellness' team will collaborate with you to navigate these challenges and support you in your journey to cope with anxiety and stress. You will benefit from a compassionate and empathetic approach that involves a unique, thoughtful approach specifically for you.

Stress, anxiety, and panic attacks are all too common in our sometimes overwhelming day to day lives: partners, work, children, family and other stressors are constantly pushing us to the breaking point. We also can experience anxiety that seemingly comes out of nowhere, anxiety that seems irrational such as a fear of getting out of the house, shopping, being around people or strange places. I work with my clients to overcome these fears; not only do I help relieve the symptoms with tried and true CBT methods, but I also like to go a bit deeper and look for the causes of anxiety. When these causes are addressed, the anxiety is more likely to go away for good.

Anxiety is our body's natural alarm system that tells us when something is wrong. Though sometimes, our alarm system needs to be re-wired a bit. This is what we do in therapy. We first start with looking at the cause of the stress and anxiety, and then together look for ways to manage the feelings that work for you. A psychodynamic approach to anxiety management looks like managing symptoms and then diving a bit deeper to see where our unconscious beliefs and expectations of ourselves merge with how we relate to people and the world. Anxiety is a physical reaction, so being able to tune into what is happening in our body will help us be able to calm it.

At Your Mindful Therapist, I support individuals who are experiencing anxiety and overwhelming stress. In a safe and compassionate space, we work together to understand your anxiety patterns and develop practical tools for calm and resilience. Combining mindfulness, CBT, ACT, and relaxation techniques, I help clients reduce anxious thoughts, manage stress more effectively, and regain a greater sense of control and peace in their lives.

Stress and anxiety are the biggest preventable causes of unhappiness and illness. They poison your relationships, self-esteem, health, and happiness. The goals in helping you manage your stress/anxiety are to understand what your personal reaction to anxiety-provoking situations are, identify what your related concerns are, and learn to "let go" of anxiety. I will help you become more aware of the internal self-talk and how your thoughts affect your feelings. Thoughts affect feelings - feelings affect actions.

Oftentimes people view anxiety as a bad feeling, however, through their work with me clients often find ways to live with their anxiety and turn the situation around. Anxiety is generally a fear of a wide variety of things, by addressing the roots of the anxiety and understanding that it can be faced head on, clients often find relief from the things that make them anxious. My work with anxiety is always gradual and clients are first made comfortable with their anxiety and then learn to cope and at times reduce anxieties where appropriate.

In working with clients on their anxiety and stress I primarily aim to promote understanding: understanding of why we are feeling so anxious and stressed, what factors contribute, what can be done to better manage or eliminate anxiety and stress from our lives, and most importantly, how to eliminate ambiguity from our lives. I specialize in working with clients on their stress and anxiety, whether it stems from work, relationships, family, trauma, lifestyle, or beliefs. It is only through understanding that we can promote comprehensive and meaningful change in our lives. I utilize principles of cognitive behavioural therapy, solution-focused work, and psychodynamics in my work.

Stress and anxiety is a part of everyone's day to day lives. However, when it becomes difficult to function due to loss of sleep, change in appetite, panic attacks, upset stomach, aches & pains, etc. therapy can be most beneficial. I use various relaxation techniques, deep breathing, mindfulness meditation, as well as talk therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques (addressing self defeating automatic thinking patterns which effect our mood and behavior). I can teach you how to manage unpleasant symptoms related to stress and anxiety.

Therapy can be a space to explore the impacts of anxiety and how it may have become engrained into your self-narrative.
