In life, we face various stressors and there are times when we may feel anxious, overwhelmed, or helpless. Finding a way to calm the body and mind can be difficult, regardless of whether this is a new struggle or one you have been dealing with for years. I believe that therapy can be a safe container in which stress and anxiety can be explored and worked through. Should you reach out for help, I will work with you to help you better understand how stress and anxiety impact you and I will also help you to develop coping strategies that may invite more calmness and that may support you in feeling empowered.

Lori Ralko
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.A., RSW
Struggling with anxiety can be such an overwhelming experience that affects all other aspects of life. If we were to work together, our first goal would be to help you reduce the intensity, duration, and frequency of anxiety to a manageable level. The key to this is often the development of emotional regulation tools that you can rely on when you're in distress. If your anxiety is less intense, we can explore potential purposes of the anxiety to see how you may move forward best.

Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
We all have feelings of worry from time to time. However if these thoughts and feelings are persistent and you find you have a constant racing mind, spiralling, catastrophic thoughts, or have the feeling of being on-edge about every little thing, you may be struggling with symptoms of anxiety. Psychotherapy is a powerful tool to help manage and mitigate symptoms of anxiety by uncovering the root cause of your worries. By understanding your fears and triggers, you can better navigate anxiety provoking situations and move through them with more ease and confidence.

Lolita Abramyan
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Anxiety can feel like a crippling experience, but it no longer needs to control your life! I help people explore the roots of their anxiety, and teach them practical skills/tools for managing it. Anxiety does not have to be a life-sentence, and having the right tools can help you break free from the anxious thoughts and sensations that interfere with your life and ability to feel happy. I use a combination of approaches like CBT, Mindfulness, and Acceptance-Commitment therapy (ACT) to help you disarm the anxiety and return to a more peaceful and relaxed state of being. There is a lot of hope that you can reduce or even eliminate your anxiety, and my main goal is to help you do so.

Sarah Elizabeth McMillan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA, MSW, RSW
Mental health support for physical illness, pain and uncertainty. Apprehension and worry about the future, hypervigilance towards body sensations and re-living the past are common distressing patterns. We know that anxiety, depression and chronic stress often occur in tandem with physical illness but can be overlooked or we may fear addressing these mental health challenges directly. We often take our health for granted until it's called into question. And then you may find it hard to focus on anything else.

Sexuality & ADhD Solutions
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapist/Certified Coach - RSSW, AAC, CEBC, CAE
With ADHD often comes anxiety, fears and overwhelm. Often this is due to constantly questioning ourselves. Are good enough? Can we do this? Are we smart enough? That is often brought on by not being able to organize our thoughts and feelings to express what we really mean.
It can also come from years of being criticized, accused, and being unfairly judged because we are different.
Most people with ADHD have average to above average intelligence. We can accomplish as much or more than others, we just need different methods to accomplish things.

Sehr Athar
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
(4-week in person group for managing and coping with anxiety starts Tuesday, November 8, 10am-12pm. $50/2 hour session) We all live with anxiety and fears to a certain extent. Anxiety and fears can become problematic when they hinder our ability to thrive in our everyday life. The way I work with anxiety is to help you to develop a relationship to your anxiety first. I will work with you to understand the thoughts and beliefs associated with your anxiety/fears, and together identify how yoru anxiety/fears/phobias influence your behaviour or actions. We might uncover how anxiety shows up for you in your body, your nervous system and identify your body triggers. Once we develop a deeper understanding of this external problem, we can begin to develop skills for you to change your relationship to anxiety, in a way that feels much more powerful.
