Nora Taylor, MA, RP
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology 1994
When stress goes unnoticed or pushed down in our psyche; it tends to become more intense. It requires that we be conscious of and face what is happening. That in itself can change it. Two resources for this is Elissa Epel; The Stress Prescription.

Franklynn Bartol
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, MSc
While stress typically constricts our experiences, one aim of therapy is to find more freedom—to feel, connect, think, and act with more freedom and agency in your life. Oftentimes, there are unconscious narratives or patterns underlying our stress, making it hard to get unstuck. Stress is typically rooted in a mixture of external and internal pressures that can be hard to untangle alone. Stress symptoms may even be masking other emotions or needs. Talking with someone who's curious and attuned to the fullness of your experiences can reveal some of this. My hope is that this leads to alleviated and more manageable experiences of stress. It may also shift how you approach and make sense of your daily life.
In working with you around stress, I'll want to understand your unique experiences—including what helps or doesn't help. We all register and respond to stress differently. You may feel panicked, anxious, overwhelmed, shut down, numb, or burnt out. Stress might be impacting your sleep or making you physically ill. You might seem to thrive on stress—it spurs you into productivity!—but feel it takes a toll or keeps you from experiencing life more fully. As someone who works relationally, I'll be especially attuned to how stress comes up in your relationships, including your relationship with yourself.

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.
