Insomnia Help Canada
Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor
Anxiety and depression can cause or worsen insomnia. But it's important to know that insomnia is often the CAUSE of (or at least a contributor to) anxiety and depression. Gaining concrete strategies to improve all the factors impacting sleep can go a long way to ending the vicious cycle of chronic insomnia.
I also love helping people with anxiety, whether it's sleep-related or not - for example, generalized anxiety, social anxiety, health anxiety - and of course the anxiety about sleep that's like pouring fuel on the flame.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
Anxiety isn’t who you are—it’s a part of you trying to keep you safe.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by racing thoughts, constant worry, or fear that won’t let go, it can be exhausting. Anxiety often comes from parts of us that learned to stay hyper-alert to avoid pain or danger. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic practices like TRE, I help you gently connect with these protective parts and the deeper wounds they may be guarding. Together, we’ll create space for calm, clarity, and a deeper sense of internal safety—so you can move through life with more ease and trust.

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Anxiety often shows up not only in thoughts, but in the body - through tension, overwhelm, restlessness, overthinking, emotional eating, difficulty slowing down, or feeling constantly “on alert.” My approach combines clinical hypnotherapy, nervous system regulation, and behaviour change support to help clients create greater calm, safety, and emotional balance in a gentle, sustainable way.

Chris Graham
Psychologist, Registered 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.

Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Anxiety can be debilitating and disruptive leaving an individual feeling confused, vulnerable, and frustrated. Although experiencing a certain level anxiety is natural and an adaptive response in our nervous system to keep us safe, it becomes maladaptive when in overdrive. Understanding the neurobiology behind anxiety and the events that trigger it is critical to treatment. Therapy includes a deep exploration of how anxiety developed, how it is keeping you safe, and coping strategies that may be useful to manage high levels of anxiety. Psychoeducation on the neurobiology behind the stress response provides a deep understanding of how stress impacts the nervous system. In our sessions, I will support you in exploring your thoughts, emotions such as fear, sadness, and anger as well as triggers that lead to heightened levels of anxiety. Exploring earlier experiences and trauma that may have led to the development of negative beliefs and may be fueling negative automatic thoughts can help determine the root cause of anxiety to break dysfunctional thinking patterns. When dealing with anxiety, improving one’s self-concept and self efficacy can be an empowering and liberating process.

Dustin Hogan - Men's Counselling

Think of anxiety like an alarm that prepares your body when you are facing a threat. In many cases, anxiety serves an important role in keeping you safe. When left unchecked, anxiety can show up in unhealthy ways and start interfering with your life.
The good news is that it doesn't have to be this way. With the right tools, support, and plan of action, you can not only manage anxiety, but you can also overcome the challenges you face!

Kim Alscher
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RCC
Anxiety can appear as paralysis, persistent overwhelm, spiralling thoughts, or ongoing physical tension. Because chronic activation of the nervous system affects health and wellbeing, it’s important to address it effectively. I combine CBT and PRT strategies with a deeper exploration of the underlying fear response so clients can understand, regulate, and ultimately reduce their anxiety.

Liz Dean
Registered Social Worker, M.S.W., R.S.W
Anxiety can feel like a constant battle through negative thoughts, feelings or body sensations that crowd out other things that are important to us. I can help you untangle your anxiety so you can understand and see it and how it impacts your self view as I find the worst part of anxiety is that it is often misinterpreted by the self and others as a lack of effort or care and can lead to low self-esteem and self-blame. My goal is to help you hold all of this and help you find a new path forward.

Jayson L. Mystkowski
Psychologist, Ph.D., ABPP
While Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT) is highly effective in the treatment of anxiety disorders (e.g., Panic Disorder, Social Phobia, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder), clinicians do see some “return of fear,” or partial relapse, in some patients due to a variety of factors. Over the past two decades, treatment researchers, with whom Dr. Jayson Mystkowski had the pleasure of working with at UCLA for over 10 years, have studied “return of fear” and discovered some key variables that may optimize the effects of learning during CBT for anxiety disorders (Craske et al., 2008).
First, evidence suggests that focusing on tolerating fear versus eliminating fear yields better clinical outcomes in the long term. Namely, teaching clients that fear and anxiety are normal feelings, rather than attempting to “down-regulate” such feelings all the time, is more realistic and seems to engender “hardier” clients. Second, helping clients to generate an expectancy that “scary things will not happen,” is very powerful. To do this, it is important for clinicians to create more complex exposure exercises (i.e., tasks in which a client confronts a stimulus of which they are afraid), using multiple feared stimuli instead of one at a time. Then, the lack of a feared outcome becomes particularly surprising and memorable for a client and fear reduction is more potent. Third, increasing the accessibility and retrievability of non-fear memories learned during treatment are powerful factors in mitigating against a return of fear. Craske and colleagues demonstrated that exposure to variations of a feared stimulus, using a random schedule across multiple contexts or situations, is more effective than exposure to the same stimulus, on a predictable schedule, in an unchanging environment. The former paradigm, it is argued, creates stronger non-fear memories that are easier for a client to access when subsequently confronting feared objects or situations outside of the therapy context, than the later scenario.
In sum, clinicians have long been aware that some fear or anxiety returns following very successful CBT treatment. As mentioned above, there are some clear, empirically supported ways to modify the therapy we provide to further help clients generalize the gains made in therapy sessions to the real world.

Molly McBride
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, RCC, RTC
I come from a place of personal understanding about how anxiety and fear can feel like it's running your life. I want to hear about your experience, and how this has impacted your growth and relationships. Together, we will become familiar with the mechanisms within the brain that, when triggered, can lead to an overactivation of the fear and anxiety zones. Then, using techniques like EMDR, hypnotherapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, we can start to formulate a roadmap back toward the version of you that feels peaceful, confident, and self-assured.

Surrey is one of Metro Vancouver's most populous and rapidly growing cities, with a large and diverse immigrant population — particularly from South Asia, the Philippines, and East Africa — creating strong demand for culturally competent and multilingual therapists who understand the pressures of settlement, family expectations, and bicultural identity. The city faces significant challenges around substance use, gang-related trauma, and concentrated poverty in some neighborhoods, and therapists specializing in addiction recovery and community mental health serve an important role. Surrey Memorial Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, with a growing private therapy community reflecting the city's expanding population. Many Surrey residents access care through the wider Metro Vancouver ecosystem via transit and telehealth.
