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.

Anxiety and stress are a normal part of life, but when they become constant, overwhelming, or paralyzing, they can take away our sense of peace and joy. In counselling, you will learn how to better understand and manage your anxiety. Together, we’ll identify the sources of your stress and explore how your body and emotions respond to it.

Stress is an everyday fact of life, one that we cannot avoid. Not all stress is bad and it is, in fact, essential to life.

After a few sessions you will have a number of adaptive ways to cope with stress and a much more positive outlook on life.

In working with anxiety and stress we will talk about the larger 'problem' and think of different ways of framing or addressing it. This will occur over several sessions. In each session however we will introduce or practice a technique that the client can use to manage the symptoms of anxiety. Some of the techniques are visual, but I also usually do 5 minutes of meditation or breathing exercises. I used to live in India and credit my yoga instructors there for the breathing exercises I have learned to cope with anxiety. I always ask clients at the end of the session what their 'take-away' is, and we collaborate on a short and long term plan moving forward.

While our bodies are perfectly designed to adapt and react to stress, modern problems mean that we tend to detect life threatening dangers in very ordinary places. Conflicts at work, arguments in our relationships and uncertainties such as the post-Covid world activate old survival mechanisms. We may be stuck in the buzzing, fear states of ‘fight-flight’ or the numb and paralyzed states of ‘freeze and shut down.’ The good news is that I have a long history of safely and successfully helping individuals and couples to reduce and release stress using a variety of CBT and mindfulness techniques, as well as trauma-informed therapy. You have my commitment to compassionate and educated care.

My approach supports client competencies (strengths) and solution based therapy. With sensitivity and compassion, I work with each client to help them build on solutions to their unique struggles and issues.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they dont treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people dont believe it or you!.

Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists.

Anxiety is very common within our society and as such also one of the most common reasons that clients come for counselling. I integrate grounding and breathing exercises along with Cognitive behaviour therapy in my treatment of anxiety.

Stress and anxiety often present as somatic distress, physical tension, racing thoughts, and sometimes, they come as a sense of constant pressure and overwhelm that interfere with our daily life in varying degrees of intensity.

The goal is not to eradicate stress because it is natural to experience anxiety and stress, however, we want to keep it within the optimal window of tolerance.
