Zlata Kovaltchouk
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RPC, RP
Explore the biggest culprits of ongoing and chronic stress, and begin to build the skills that are necessary to effectively manage stress. Stress is a part of life and cannot be erased, and our bodies are designed to withstand acute stress. However, chronic and ongoing stress (the kind that is harmful to our well-being) is often caused by lifestyle, certain long-standing behavioural patterns, and a lack of effective skills in communication, coping, and emotional regulation. We will look at all of these areas to explore where change might be helpful, and to begin to learn the necessary skills and tools to manage difficult thoughts and feelings effectively, respond to the challenges of life while taking care of your own needs, and increase emotional resiliency as well as behaviours that will promote vitality.

Joshua Lewis
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CT
Stress is unavoidable. The ways in which we relate to, cope with and manage stress have a direct impact on how we qualitatively feel in our lives. We will work together to understand the ways in which your physical, emotional and mental experiences of stress are useful sources of information to what is and isn't working in your life. Let's co-create a reliable toolkit of ways to re-learn how to relax, self-regulate, become more present-oriented and move through stressful situations with self-compassion and grace.

Kim Foster Yardley, The Mental Game Clinic
Psychologist, MA C. Psych
Whatever the trigger, burnout can lead to decreased motivation, increased anxiety, fatigue and poor focus. Ultimately, productivity takes a nosedive and work stress can feel insurmountable. The good news is you can heal from burnout and with the support of your therapist figure out what changes you need to make to prevent burnout from happening again.
