Megan Hanrahan
Psychologist, M.C., Registered Psychologist
Anxiety can show up in lots of different ways. Whether you find yourself constantly overthinking or feeling excessive discomfort in social situations, it can have a huge effect on your ability to function on a daily basis. Sometimes anxiety gets so big that we avoid situations that cause us anxiety all together. In our work together, we’ll explore how to identify how anxiety shows up for you, what it tries to tell you, and how to tackle it head-on.

Anxiety or Fears
Laura Hall
Psychologist, MC, Registered Provisional Psychologist
Anxiety is something that is necessary in life as it protects us and keeps us safe. However, there are times when anxiety can over power our natural response to cope and we become fearful of certain situations or people. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to address both anxious thoughts and emotions are main modalities that I use to help overcome this life stressor.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
Anxiety is a horrible thing, it makes you doubt yourself and the world around you, it leads you to overestimate how bad things are and underestimate your ability to handle them. There are very easy to learn skills that can help you get anxiety and fear under your control and retake important areas of your life.

Carl Conradi
Counsellor/Therapist, CCC, MSc, MBA
If there's any one thing that we can say about life, it's that it's full of uncertainty and constant change. As beings who are hardwired to crave stability and predictably, this truth often feels like a cruel joke. And yet, the contradiction or impasse may not be as stark as we may think: there are ways to achieve a sense of rootedness amidst the storm. How then can we expand our tolerance for the curve balls that life inevitably throws at us, and how can we come to trust ourselves (and others) to make it through?

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional Psychologist (P7619) in Alberta, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) for the rest of Canada
Feeling afraid and anxious can be overwhelming and consuming. It's like being in a constant state of alertness, with your mind racing and your body on edge, anticipating danger or harm. Physically, you might experience a racing heart, sweating, trembling, or shortness of breath. Mentally, you may feel a sense of dread, worry or unease, tightness in the chest, and unable to shake off the feeling of impending danger. It can be exhausting, affecting your ability to concentrate, sleep, or enjoy things you once loved. Fear and anxiety can also lead to avoidance behaviors, as you try to steer clear of anything that triggers those feelings. Being distressed like this can impact every aspect of your life, with seemingly no end in sight. Daniel suffered through 7 nervous breakdowns between the ages of 18 to 23 - over 35 years ago giving him deep personal experience with anxiety and fear. So, Daniel understands. Access him to help you turn the tables on this insidious enemy.

Kevin Ruddell
Psychologist, M.A., R. Psych
Anxiety is typically an adaptive response to perceived threats in the environment. However, when the anxiety starts to negatively impact our life it can become debilitating. By adjusting our perspectives of the perceived threats we can often return our anxiety back to levels that may promote action rather than shut it down.

Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist
While anxiety can help to keep us safe, it can hold us back from living the fulfilling lives that we deserve. I believe that the therapeutic relationship can offer the perfect setting in which to learn new ways of being - where anxiety can begin to lose the power it holds over us.
