Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
The pressure to 'be' something in the world can be overwhelming. Add to that the distress of what's happening in our ecosystem and, through that lens, having anxiety absolutely makes sense.
When it comes to the climate crisis, feelings such as anxiety, guilt, terror, grief, anger, despair and helplessness are not something to be fixed or cured. They are healthy, appropriate responses. They show that you care.
My experience is that anxiety and fear often come from needing, but not being able, to predict the future. And the fear of the fear itself can be debilitating. It doesn't have to be that way.
We work to bring your body on board so that your mind can take a break from its catastrophic thought cycles. Bringing the body on board also helps to build your supports and your ground and to soothe your weary mind.

Licensed Professional Counsellor, Graduate Diploma Trauma Informed Processwork Psychotherapy (Process Oriented Psychology), Diploma Counselling, Somatic Experiencing Cert II/III
Addressing anxiety and fears involves a comprehensive approach encompassing the mind and body, unravelling behaviours and coping strategies and looking deep within so that we’re not just managing the symptoms we’re discovering and addressing the root cause. I do this by utilising a ‘bottom-up’ somatic approach to therapy which means there is an integration of the cognitive (mind) with emotions and sensations within the body (somatic). This awareness (beyond the spiralling, often confusion of the mind) gives access to a world of information to help resolve trauma, anxiety, addiction, emotional overwhelm, dissociation, impulsivity, emotion regulation and an inability to relax and be present.
