Licensed Professional Counsellor, CCC, MPS-AT
Anxiety is a common sidekick for folks with ADHD. Our fast-moving mind has a higher tendency to worry and it can get pretty debilitating. There are lots of calming ways to process our fears, to learn to navigate our high-octane brains in a way that feels better every day.

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.

Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
When we experience a stressor, such as a job interview or academic demands, a certain level of anxiety is common. However, when anxiety persists and for no obvious reason individuals often experience a reduced quality of life. Some symptoms of anxiety include restlessness/feeling on edge, racing heartbeat, excessive worrying, and avoiding situations that are anxiety provoking. For managing anxiety I introduce varying tools from different therapy models in order to help you gain control over your discomfort.

Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
I have worked extensively with anxiety and have had my own struggles with it. I have found that it is not about making the anxiety go away, but more in learning how to relate to it differently and be able to tolerate it. Anxieties can also just continue to switch form and we end up playing whack a mole, so it is important to get to what the core fear is that is driving it.

Anxiety and fear can keep us stuck, and hinders us from being who we want to be and living the life we want. Getting to know what's underneath the anxiety and fear can help us gain clarity and make room for new ways of thinking and small shifts to open up possibility. If you are feeling ready to explore where what's possible, just reach out.
