Anxiety, panic and fear are feelings that clients can learn to understand and manage. However, building more fear on top of these feelings, can prevent clients from being able to be mindful of, present to and compassionate towards their difficult feelings. The safe non-judgmental compassionate attitude of the therapist helps to encourage the client to be accepting of her/his own difficult feelings and experiences. Examining negative thoughts and beliefs, and understanding situations or relationships that trigger anxiety can lead clients to see new choices for coping with discomfort. Successes in coping lead to a sense of empowerment and increased confidence for new challenges.

Stress is normal and useful. When we experience too much it is like a gas tank over-filling. This can be dangerous as even just a little stress ("spark") can trigger an anxiety attack or angry outburst. Managing stress and stress levels is very important. Remember, deep breathing... three to five 15-20 second breaths can calm and balance out body and emotion. Then, and only then, can we utilize the many other strategies available to lower stress, resolve problems and improve the relationships valuable to us. Email or contact us at www.jeffpacker.com for more helpful tips.

Most individuals experience anxiety from time to time or in response to very stressful moments in their lives. When anxiety occurs in response to normal daily activities or becomes constant, overwhelming, difficult to control and starts to interfere with daily life, it might mean you are experiencing an anxiety disorder. Therapy that addresses anxiety can help you identify and understand your symptoms and learn new ways of thinking, and new behaviour patterns that can greatly reduce your anxiety. Finding a therapist whom you trust and connect with is very important and can be the beginning of feeling more in control of your life.

Anxiety can rob us of a fulfilling life, making each day filled with stress and worry. I have studied various different approaches to anxiety, and have found that elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy plus Cognitive Behavior Therapy best help my clients gain control over the often debilitating effects of anxiety. I find often anxiety is dismissed and invalidated by others in our life who simply don't understand the struggle. I get how difficult it can be, and I am here to help you navigate it.

Everyone feels anxiety at some point in their lives but when it starts to interfere with your life, counseling can help. Although anxiety can feel debilitating, it is treatable. People with anxiety don’t always share the same symptoms, they vary from person to person. Therapy will help you to reclaim your life and function in a chronically stressful world.

People often come to see me for psychotherapy in my downtown Toronto practice when they find that they are struggling with anxiety-related problems, such as panic disorder, social phobia, anxiety disorders, and the tendency to ruminate excessively.

Anxiety and stress can be treated using a variety of techniques that look towards changing situations, thought patters, and behaviours that work to reduce both percieved and acutal stress/anxiety levels. Psychoeducation allows the client to obtain both the knowledge and skills that can be used to better manage stressors as they arise. As well, simply taking the time to vent your worries and concerns to an unbiased party can greatly help to immediatley reduce stress while allowing you to see the situation from a more realistic perspective.

Anxiety and stress can be all encompassing and an obstacle to focusing on completing daily tasks. Individual psychotherapy for anxiety and stress will first discuss the thoughts, moods, physical symptoms, and possible triggers you are experiencing to collaboratively make coping tools. Sessions will then focus on investigating thoughts and situations that cause your stress and anxiety to explore how to create a more balanced perspective.

Stress and anxiety are often unavoidable aspects of life in our modern world. It may be that there is no more sane a response than to experience anxiety and stress because of the stressors and calamities that perpetually surround us. We will explore the root causes of these stresses and anxieties; some causes are internal, perhaps due to cognitive distortions, while some stressors are external and systemic. We will explore the whole system as well as how we operate within it.

In many cases, an integrative approach of cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and psychotherapy is used to help you manage stress and anxiety. Cognitive-behavioural therapy aims to help you change your emotional response and behaviour by changing your thoughts. If our thoughts happen so quickly and automatically, how can we change a stress response that is perpetuated by such challenging or negative thoughts? Using cognitive-behavioural strategies, we can slow down the thought process by creating a heightened awareness of them. As we observe them, we can make significant changes in our automatic thoughts, and subsequently, change our emotional response and the way we respond as a result.

In my experience, the combination of schema therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is an effective approach to dealing with anxiety. This method digs deeper than CBT alone and brings forth insights that guide us to specific stress and anxiety management priorities tailored to your needs. This is an amplified form of CBT that will open a new door to your recovery.

Anxiety can come in many forms, such as: panic and anxiety attacks; extreme fear; worrying thoughts from which one rarely gets a break; sleeplessness either due to going over and over how one behaved during the day, and judging oneself, or, from dreading what the following day might bring; fear and avoidance of one's own intense emotions; fear of rejection of others, leading to intense social anxiety or avoidance of close relationships; performance anxiety, such as worries about exams, job interviews, or performance appraisals at one's place of work. I like to get a sense of the frequency, intensity, and duration of somebody's anxiety, and then to help them to reduce all 3.

Anxiety is internalized prolonged internal stress. Often people are afraid because they have never owned up to themselves. It is completely understandable with the world we live in today and all the expectations placed on we can often become overwhelmed. It can be a forever on going pressure from anything such as, ageing; being alone; illness losing a job/family member/possession. Things that require action can also be heavy stress factors; relationships; losing weight; intimacy; career. Our inner state of mind; feeling rejected, like a failure; low self-image. Etc. "This is not true you have handled everything up till now". Reaching out for support is the first step to creating change.

Low levels of anxiety can motivate us to accomplish goals and perform at our best. As the level of experienced anxiety creeps higher, it robs us of our joy and can make us feel overwhelmed resulting in either inactivity or a compulsion to be overactive yet not experiencing any lasting relief. Our sense of internal peace and calm is replaced by perpetual overthinking and fear. Let's work together to gain insight into the root cause of your anxiety so that we are able to empower you to reclaim your experience of joy and a sense of internal calm.
