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.

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 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.
