Anxiety and stress can become utterly overwhelming. I will help you to uncover what is getting in the way of living your optimal life and to build new skills to manage it. Through the use of acceptance and mindfulness strategies I help clients to be fully present in the moment and to accept otherwise negative emotions. Commitment and behavior change strategies help clients to change or persist in behaviors more in line with their own values. Used together these strategies increase client’s psychological flexibility.

While most treatment approaches for anxiety and stress are effective on the surface, they don’t treat the real problem. Mantras, deep breathing, and rational dialogues about your fear being irrational rarely work---for most people don’t believe it or you! Imagine if you can trick the brain into changing without you telling your conscious mind that you are changing it? Problem with anxiety and stress is that the brain in this state knows you want to change it and it resists. Contact Kevin@kevinfleminphd.com for the ultimate stress and anxiety solution that will literally change your brain's autonomic nervous system patterns while you sit on your butt. 877-606-6161.

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. Psychotherapy helps individuals cope better with stress through the use of relaxation methods, and techniques to help regulate excessive anxiety.

Stress and anxiety is a part of everyone's day to day lives. However, when it becomes difficult to function due to loss of sleep, change in appetite, panic attacks, upset stomach, aches & pains, etc. therapy can be most beneficial. I use various relaxation techniques, deep breathing, mindfulness meditation, as well as talk therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques (addressing self defeating automatic thinking patterns which effect our mood and behavior). I can teach you how to manage unpleasant symptoms related to stress and anxiety.

Anxiety and Stress can be such a plague to people who suffer from them. These symptoms can be extremely debilitating and frustrating. Suffering from these long enough will lead to other problems such as anger or depression. My goal for working with clients is to explore these symptoms, their origin, and a client's best hopes of living a life beyond just the impact of these symptoms.

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.

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 often hits us unexpectedly. We might manage stress well enough until at some point the body's resources seem to get diminished and the body starts to talk back. Some symptoms of Anxiety & Stress might be: difficulty breathing, sleeping and/or eating; restless mind; negative thoughts and tumultuous emotions. The work I find most helpful to improve your skills for dealing with these fear-based emotions; includes cultivating a better relationship with your body and your emotions. As you become more aware of your actual limitations and pay greater attention to your needs, your body can achieve a more balanced state.

Anxiety is often manifested in physical symptoms such as rapid or heavy breathing, chest tightness, heart palpitation. Clients often find themselves in their GP's office as they are convinced that they have a serious medical condition. People are often relieved to know that they are physically healthy, but they are left confused, scared, and embarrassed as they feel may feel that they are going 'crazy' as they can't understand their experiences. Research shows that the best treatment for Anxiety is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. CBT helps clients examine their unproductive thoughts and beliefs and helps them form new ones to reclaim power and agency in their lives.

Stress, anxiety, and panic attacks are all too common in our sometimes overwhelming day to day lives: partners, work, children, family and other stressors are constantly pushing us to the breaking point. We also can experience anxiety that seemingly comes out of nowhere, anxiety that seems irrational such as a fear of getting out of the house, shopping, being around people or strange places. I work with my clients to overcome these fears; not only do I help relieve the symptoms with tried and true CBT methods, but I also like to go a bit deeper and look for the causes of anxiety. When these causes are addressed, the anxiety is more likely to go away for good.

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.

Oftentimes people view anxiety as a bad feeling, however, through their work with me clients often find ways to live with their anxiety and turn the situation around. Anxiety is generally a fear of a wide variety of things, by addressing the roots of the anxiety and understanding that it can be faced head on, clients often find relief from the things that make them anxious. My work with anxiety is always gradual and clients are first made comfortable with their anxiety and then learn to cope and at times reduce anxieties where appropriate.

Anxiety is like a temperature. A temperature tells us there is something wrong in our body, an infection or a virus. Anxiety is our emotional centre telling us "too much", "overwhelmed", "overload". Ignoring it only work for so long. We need to stop, listen and learn what it is telling us and use this information in our lives. This controls symptoms. We can also help you create a tool kit that is specialized to you ex. exercise, journaling, meditation. Meditation is a powerful tool that actually calms the central nervous system and breaks down stress chemicals. With regular, daily practice it can change your body's experience of anxiety. We can help explore this.

I realize that anxiety and stress can cause significant conflict within an individuals sense of self, relationships to others, success at work and hobbies, or intimate couples relationship. Often times it may even induce feelings of anger, frustration, resentment, or perhaps helplessness, sad, lonely and hurt. Our work together is assumed to be short-term, following a solution-oriented approach. I also utilize a Cognitive-Behavioural therapy (CBT), Narrative, and Emotion-focused approach as necessary. I ask clients to commit to at least 6-10 sessions, as we set realistic goals based on insurance coverage, time, and finances permit.

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.

Stress and anxiety are the biggest preventable causes of unhappiness and illness. They poison your relationships, self-esteem, health, and happiness. The goals in helping you manage your stress/anxiety are to understand what your personal reaction to anxiety-provoking situations are, identify what your related concerns are, and learn to "let go" of anxiety. I will help you become more aware of the internal self-talk and how your thoughts affect your feelings. Thoughts affect feelings - feelings affect actions.

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.
