Stress, PTSD and Anxiety Therapists in Dalmeny, SK.

Stress is a fact of life. Work, school, finances, relationships, raising children, concerns about the future, and countless other issues can be overwhelming. We simply cannot handle long-term, chronic stress without health consequences. Anxiety goes hand-in-glove with stress. Stress can lead to feelings of anxiety, and anxiety often heightens stress levels. This feedback loop can feel crazy-making, overwhelming, and get in the way of everything. In my practice, I help people to better understand stress and anxiety, and learn ways to deepen their ability to cope, and move toward enjoying increased peace of mind and sense of stability.

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.

Anxiety is very common within our society and as such also one of the most common reasons that clients come for counselling.

Everyone experiences anxiety and stress at some point in their lives. It is a normal process to protect us from real danger. However, anxiety can become overwhelming and rob us of our joy and peace in life, affecting us physically, mentally, and emotionally. The many stressors of life, such as losing a job, endinga relationship, being discriminated against, moving, experiencing a loss or a serious illness, or even going through a positive change in life can be debilitating. Sometimes our ways of coping can be destructive. I can help you to find ways to help you manage and cope with the stressors in your life so that you can experience less anxiety and gain healthier ways of coping.

Narrative Therapy Approach to Grief Part of processing a loss is finding a new purpose. Sometimes this means using a compass made of different values than before.

Anxiety is a natural response to stress and everyone experiences some anxiety. Anxiety becomes a problem when it persists long after the incident is over or the level of anxiety is over the top and out of proportion to the triggering factors. Unhealthy anxiety can severely limit your enjoyment of life and put unnecessary stress on you mind and body. Imagine living your life free of unnecessary anxiety. Imagine breathing easy and feeling at peace. Susan will help you discover the underlying causes of your anxiety and learn ways to change your mind and your body to release anxiety and better cope with stress and triggers.

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.

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.

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 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. We can work together to slow down the internal races, identify the sources of distress, work on grounding techniques and integrate mindful, cognitive strategies into your day to day routine to give you more control. 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.

Anxiety is a major issue that needs to be addressed and properly maintained to achieve balance in life. Interesting to learn is that there is such a thing as positive anxiety: "eustress". Eustress is the perfect amount of anxiety to keep one attentive, alert, and performing well. "Distress" on the other hand, will create a shut-down or dysfunction in behaviour. Critical to understand is that negative messages we send ourselves ('Cognitive Distortions') significantly contribute to distress. Anxiety is real and it can be overwhelming. But it doesn't have to be.

Are you living your life constantly feeling on-edge? Are you a worrier who can't seem to turn it off? Does anxiety or stress keep you from being fully present for your family?

Imagine: going about your day feeling excited rather than worried, confident rather than stressed, and focused rather than scattered. If you’re ready to stop worrying and start living, reach out.

Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations.

I utilize an integrated approach that combines neuroscience, cognitive, behavioural, somatic and mindfulness interventions to help you overcome overwhelm and cope with all life's surprises.
