Anxiety is rampant in our time. The pace of life and how much we are expected to produce, the old metaphors of our bodies as machines are no longer working for us. I use meditations, grounding activities with nature items indoors, as well as going outdoors for sessions. Particularly the outdoor time really invites clients to reconnect with their bodies, minds and spirts and brings calm, peace and perspective back into those moments.

As a Somatic (SE) therapist- mental & emotional health follows the state of the nervous system. If it is flowing seamlessly between sympathetic and parasympathetic; arousal and settling, within a “manageable range” there’s a deep, internal sense of well-being, emotional stability, confidence, clear thinking, aliveness, trust in self and others, and mastery. With SE we will focus on: Your experiences... in the body Learn to track, observe, describe what is going on for you Regulate internal arousal states, shift locked patterns into action, increase body awareness. Encourage emotional engagement with attention to: mindfulness, sensations, movements and impulses. Here & Now find YOU!

My approach to treating anxiety and stress often involves integrating cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques and relaxation strategies into the work that I do with clients. By helping clients identify negative thought patterns, I am able to guide them in developing more helpful coping mechanisms. Mindfulness practices such as meditation and breathing exercises foster a sense of calm and present-moment awareness. Additionally, relaxation techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation reduce physical tension. Clients benefit from these methods by experiencing reduced symptoms, improved emotional regulation and enhanced overall well-being.

It is hard to understand anxiety unless you have experienced it. Anxiety is a lot like an unwanted guest at a party, only this guest often ruins everything and seemingly never wants to leave. People who live with anxiety are often misunderstood, minimized or dismissed as irrational by those who do not understand what it is like to feel anxious. Additionally, many people living with anxiety often blame themselves for their anxious thinking, which can often make things worse. I help men to better cope with their anxiety by working together to find and practice the tools and techniques that work for them so they can successfully deal with those unwanted/and poorly timed anxious moments.

Anxiety has many sources and can mean many different things. It is always experienced physiologically in the same way, no matter the source or meaning. Anxiety arises when we move into unknown territory. This is normal. It arises when something of value to us is threatened. We can think of this as "sacred" anxiety. Or we can become anxious about being anxious, worried about things over which we have no control. This is neurotic anxiety. I work with people to first understand the source and meaning of their anxiety. Then work to help them learn to calm the anxiety down in order to take appropriate action in dealing with its source.

When our lives get overwhelmed with anxiety and stress it can be hard to ask for help. I commend you for taking the first step and reaching out. In our sessions I will create a compassionate space for you to talk about difficult topics without judgment. I use an informal, conversational approach to therapy where I incorporate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT). I support my clients in developing effective coping strategies that enable them to live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

In our world of chronic and fast change anxiety and stress are common. Sometimes the source is situational and sometimes its a longstand issue.

I believe we all have moments in our lives when we experience stress and anxiety.

It is normal to worry and feel stressed about life's problems and pressures. But when compounded symptoms begin to overwhelm us to the point where we are getting headaches, heart palpitations, a churning stomach, cold sweats, sleepless nights, weight loss, obsessive thoughts, a distressed GI tract - then we need help to break the adrenaline-fear cycle. Anxiety feeds on fear and needs to be confronted, appropriately and safely, with relaxation techniques, new perceptions and constructive thinking patterns. A counsellor can help you do this.

Anxiety and stress can be consuming and prevent people from living their fullest lives.

Learning healthy ways to cope with stressful situations is also a priority. There are both physical, mental, and emotional benefits to managing and reducing stress and anxiety, e.g., reduced blood pressure, reduced muscle tension and aches, a sense of calmness, confidence, and so on.

I understand that anxiety and stress can feel consuming resulting in emotionally shutting down, experiencing outbursts or avoiding situations all together. I work with clients to create a healthier relationship with anxiety and stress that is founded in the belief “I can handle this”. I help clients learn the tools to handle any situation that triggers anxiety or stress including changing how they think about the triggering situation. When clients shift their thinking, they open up the ability to achieve things that they normally thought were impossible. This new self-confidence allows clients to choose the type of relationship they want to have with themselves, with others and with the world around them giving them endless possibilities.

Working together we will identify your anxious thoughts, and utilize and practice skills to use beyond the therapy room that will help you feel more centred, present and fulfilled.

Anxiety and stress can hijack your thoughts, relationships, and even your sense of identity.

Together, we’ll create a plan that helps you feel more grounded, capable, and in control. Online booking is available—let’s start untangling the overwhelm.
