Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Newmarket, ON.

My approach to supporting individuals who are struggling with anxiety or going through a stressful time is focusing on helping you regulate your nervous system. When you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed, your nervous system can go into overdrive - making it harder to think clearly, feel calm, or respond effectively. By learning techniques that bring your nervous system back to a neutral or calm state, you can begin to manage stress and anxiety more effectively. We will explore practical ways to help you feel more grounded, balanced, and in control.

While anxiety and stress in small amounts can be a helpful source of information, too much can become overwhelming and even interfere with our daily lives. Therapy can be a space to explore the impacts of anxiety and how it may have become engrained into your self-narrative. You and I can work together to co-create coping strategies that are unique to your specific situation. Contact me to book a free consultation so we can decide together if we would be a good fit.

In our sessions, part of our work will be searching for core events or beliefs that have contributed to the anxiety and stress. The intervention will be tailored to the client bringin my training in Gestalt Therapy, as well as Client Centred and Cognitive Therapies with Energy Therapies to the process of achieving relief. Reconnect with your joy of life and with a sense of relaxation!

In life, we face various stressors and there are times when we may feel anxious, overwhelmed, or helpless. Finding a way to calm the body and mind can be difficult, regardless of whether this is a new struggle or one you have been dealing with for years. I believe that therapy can be a safe container in which stress and anxiety can be explored and worked through. Should you reach out for help, I will work with you to help you better understand how stress and anxiety impact you and I will also help you to develop coping strategies that may invite more calmness and that may support you in feeling empowered. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

Stress, Anxiety, and phobias can leave you feeling immobilized and powerless and unable to cope well. I can help you develop sound strategies to reducing your symptoms, help manage them, and to eradicate some of these from your life. I have successfully done so using the following modalities: Hypnotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness Techniques, and Energy Therapies, and using strategies that promote neuroplasticity which have helped to change distorted thinking and feeling patterns.

Anxiety and stress can be, in a word, scary! They can leave us feeling overwhelmed and alone. Therapy can provide a safe and supportive space to explore these concerns and learn new skills that can restore your sense of freedom and control. I offer a free 15-minute consultation for individuals aged 14+ to see if I am a good fit to help you manage your anxiety and stress.

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.

Dealing with anxiety is difficult as it is the body's natural response to a perceived threat and that response, is unique to each individual and can often present itself as a sense of discomfort, emotional reactions, physical sensations, and unhelpful behavioural patterns. Your anxiety can be triggered through situational or environmental events and can often feel chronic. Schedule a free consultation to me to see if I am the right fit to help you manage your anxiety.

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.

Our team has over a decade of experience working with clients that struggle with feelings of anxiety and stress. Our approach includes cognitive behavioural therapy to help clients manage the symptoms of anxiety and creating a plan to move forward, as well as exploring patterns of emotional regulation that may lead to longer term success in managing this very common issue.

Anxiety prevents you from being present and puts you in a position where you are either ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. In the moment, it can feel impossible to get out of it, and one cannot simply snap out of it. Similarly, stress can permeate multiple aspects of your life. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as mindfulness exercises to help you manage your anxiety. Eventually, we would also work together to understand why the anxiety shows up and how we can address the original source. Reach out today to book a free consultation.
