Anxiety and stress can be confusing and overwhelming, and result in both negative emotional and physical symptoms. Counselling for anxiety or stress provides the opportunity to discover and implement effective coping strategies, identify triggers, and explore and process new ways of engaging with the world around you. Having someone safe to talk to is an effective strategy in and of itself, connect with me today and we can walk out this journey together.

In my approach to work with anxiety and stress, I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and Somatic Experiencing to help people engage fully with their present experiences and bodily sensations. This encourages you to observe and accept their feelings of anxiety and stress without judgment, fostering a greater sense of control. By learning to stay grounded and present, you can develop more effective coping strategies that align with your values, leading to a more balanced and fulfilling life.

In these difficult times, and before, anxiety and stress can sometimes sneak up on us until we are surprised to find that we are catching colds, experiencing muscle aches and pains, or even are having difficulty eating or sleeping regularly. I will help you get to the root of what ails you, whether it is past trauma, current life stressors, an impending life transition, or generalized anxiety. By helping you uncover your strengths and teaching you tools to manage your stress or anxiety, I can assist you in rewriting the story you tell yourself about your past and your future.

Anxiety is anticipating something evil to happen in the future, which brings stress to the person and interrupts the routine and healthy psychological function. The anxiety itself is a necessary part of everyday life, but when it becomes extreme, it can cause harm for our mental health. To learn how to manage anxiety and cope with the stress is a skill that is needed to cope with everyday problems as well as traumatic experiences in life. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

As a therapist, I recognize the debilitating effects that anxiety and stress can have on one's life. Through therapy, we work collaboratively to identify triggers and develop coping mechanisms to manage overwhelming feelings. Together, we explore thought patterns and behaviors contributing to anxiety, fostering self-awareness and resilience. Through evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness, clients learn to challenge negative thoughts and cultivate a sense of calm. Therapy provides a safe space to process emotions, learn relaxation techniques, and develop practical strategies for coping with stressors.
