Anxiety Therapy

Is Anxiety Keeping You From Living The Life You Desire?

Do you spend nights wide awake, stuck in a loop of worry and anxiety? Those constant 'What if?' thoughts seem to follow you everywhere – when you're alone, at work, or spending time with friends and family. The results of your choices, the words and opinions of others, and your own self-doubt don’t let you feel safe anywhere.

Anxiety is a normal response to stress or threats. It helps us deal with challenges by making us more alert when things are tough. But if anxiety becomes too intense or lasts too long, and we don’t know how to cope with it, it can take away all our strength and energy and leave us constantly feeling vulnerable and out of control.

Anxiety can be overwhelming, making you feel on edge at work, scared of taking on new tasks or responsibilities, uncomfortable around people, and afraid of their attention. You might find yourself thinking about worst-case scenarios and feeling exhausted and tired. Sometimes, all you want is to stop worrying and feel calm, but it seems like there's nothing there to help you feel safe.

Thousands Of People Struggle With Anxiety And Stress

Anxiety disorders rank as the most widespread among mental health challenges, affecting about one in 10 Canadians. There are many factors which make anxiety so common and so hard to overcome: lots of stressors at work and in the environment that surround us every day of our lives, high expectations communicated by parents, school and work, lack of safe relationships and supports, irrational thought patterns that overestimate the danger and underestimate the ability to cope.

Symptoms of anxiety can vary in intensity and duration from person to person, but most often include:
Excessive Worrying: Persistent and uncontrollable thoughts about future events, often expecting the worst.
Physical Activation: Tension, rapid heartbeat, trouble breathing, sweating, nausea or upset stomach, restlessness.
Irritability: Being easily annoyed or agitated, often over minor things.
Sleep Disturbances: Difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restless sleep.
Difficulty Concentrating: Finding it hard to focus or concentrate on tasks.
Mind Blankness: Going blank or having difficulty thinking clearly.
Avoidance: Steering clear of situations that trigger anxiety.

The feeling of being surrounded by constant dangers and helplessness can be very extremely overwhelming. But there’s good news. Our experience, backed by lots of research evidence, shows that with the help of a compassionate, experienced therapist you can overcome anxiety, regain control over your life and build confidence and safety.

You May Still Have Questions About Anxiety Therapy

Avoidance only makes anxiety stronger, and addressing and understanding it is the way to change. However, we believe safety and comfort are essential for therapy to be effective, and we will always approach each session with empathy and compassion and move at your pace.
Consistency and commitment play a crucial role in navigating anxiety, and psychotherapy provides a structured and supportive environment for consistent progress. By understanding the root causes and patterns of anxiety, we can collaboratively lay a strong foundation for the tools and strategies that will be most effective for you.
