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.

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.

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. You’ll develop personalized strategies to calm your nervous system, think more clearly, and respond to life’s challenges with greater confidence and balance. My approach is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from neuroscience, cognitive-behavioural, somatic, and mindfulness practices. This means our work will not only address anxious thoughts, but als

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 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. It can also be helpful to consider sensorimotor (body) symptoms that the client is experiencing, I have training in sensorimotor psychotherapy and take a trauma informed approach to treating anxiety and depression.

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.
