Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Anxiety and fear often points to the meaning of something that might happen in the future. It may be the fear of losing your job or a relationship that is struggling. It may be the anxiety from the responsibility that come with living in the modern world and what might feel like no freedom. I believe most often, anxiety is telling you something useful and critical in you life that require exploration. I invite you to come and explore your anxiety with curiosity and what it is trying to tell you. With that awareness, new choices may appear.

Samantha Tomer, LLC
Licensed Professional Counsellor, M.Ed., LPC, NCC
Living with anxiety can feel like your mind never rests — constant worry, racing thoughts, or fears that seem to take over at the worst times. It can impact your sleep, your relationships, and even your physical health. In our work together, we slow things down and create space to untangle what feels overwhelming. My approach is both grounding and empowering, helping you find calm, clarity, and a sense of control again. Clients often tell me that having a safe, discreet place to share their fears is the first step toward finally feeling at ease in their own life.

Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
We can experience anxiety in a variety of different ways - we may suffer from panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, unrelenting worries, or phobias. Therapy can help to alleviate anxiety in different ways by understanding what lies beneath it and adjusting our behavioural responses to it accordingly. Anxiety is a very common mental health disorder and affects many, many people. Talking therapy can help us to learn different strategies to manage our anxiety and move away from feeling helpless or hopeless.

Delphine Marina Psychotherapy and Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Diploma Soul Centred Psychotherapy; MA(R.es) Cultural Studies; GradDip IT & Politics; BA(Hons)Human
Anxiety is a persistent feeling of worry, tension, or unease that can show up in the mind, body, or both. It may manifest as racing thoughts, muscle tension, trouble sleeping, or a sense that something bad might happen—even when there’s no clear threat.
Fear, on the other hand, is usually a response to a specific, immediate danger—real or perceived. But when fear becomes chronic, or is tied to past experiences or unresolved trauma, it can limit our choices, relationships, and sense of safety in the world.
Both anxiety and fear can be signals—not of something wrong with you—but of something important asking to be understood.

Aleksei Panov
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Psy, MS Psy, RP
For dealing with anxiety, first of all, I help my clients to manage their physical symptoms of anxiety and then they are able to take control of their bodies, secondly we try to identify automatic negative thoughts and learn how to deal with them and challenge them. It is okay to have anxiety, but you need to learn how to deal with it faster.

Therapist, MIBWRT(AC and Coach, TFT DX, NLP Practioner and Coach, Hypnotherapist
Are you avoiding situations due to anxiety? Is it stopping you from living a full life?
Anxiety attacks can produce an unpleasant cocktail of symptoms; sweating palms, nausea, palpatations, hyperventilation and feelings of paranoia. As anxiety is usually triggered by specific circumstances, many people find themselves avoiding those situations where they may experience anxiety, this in itself can exacerbate the problem, especially if those situations involve work, travel or socialising. With cutting edge psychological tools anxiety can be a thing of the past in between 1 and 4 sessions.

Anxiety can be crippling and obvious. Or it can subtly sabotage our plans. Contact me for a free consultation on recognizing your feelings of anxiety, and applying anxiety management techniques. You are not an anxious person: you are person more susceptible to anxiety – but you can learn to hand it. We all need to experience some degree of anxiety at times – it would be unnatural not to feel any of its symptoms, such as racing pulse, dry mouth, sweatiness and shallow breathing, just before a big speech or exam, for instance – as it helps get us motivated to act. But excessive anxiety causes problems. Excessive anxiety may develop gradually, starting, perhaps, with loneliness after the loss of a loved one; being too shy to make new friends when moving somewhere new; experiencing unwelcome life changes because of chronic illness and pain; or feeling loaded down with too much responsibility – all cases of unmet emotional needs.
When people worry excessively, it is in essence because important emotional needs, such as for safety, connection or status, are not being met. That’s why the human givens approach, which focuses on helping people in distress find healthy ways to meet their emotional needs, is so effective.
For some people, anxiety can develop suddenly, after they are caught up in some tragic disaster, such as a fire or a crash, or are the victims of violence, and their lives become ruled by fear. (This is known as post-traumatic stress.) Anxiety may also take the form of obsessions, compulsions, phobias or a nagging feeling of foreboding – all of which are attempts to ward off a sense of threat.
Yet, as we know, some people face such circumstances without becoming overly anxious, while others end up almost crippled by anxiety. How we explain the negative events that happen to us has a considerable bearing on whether we are likely to suffer from excessive anxiety. Three particular types of thinking are especially connected with its development and its close partner, depression: how personally people take events (they think everything is their fault or that they didn’t get the job because they weren’t good enough, rather than because the competition was particularly stiff); how pervasive they think the effects will be (if they lose their job, they think everything in their world is going wrong, even though their relationship is still strong and they have their health, good friends, etc); and how permanent(they will never get another job, partner, dream house like that one, etc).
People who suffer badly from anxiety also tend to have a lot of negative thoughts running through their minds that they don’t even notice (“I’ll never cope”; “it’s going to be awful”; “no one likes me”) and commonly catastrophise (“I’m going to be late. My boss will sack me!”) Changing negative self-talk and challenging catastrophic thinking help lower stress levels.
Another major cause of troublesome anxiety is negative over-imagination. Anxious people tend to spend a lot of time worrying “What if?”, coming up with a whole variety of dreadful outcomes for themselves or their loved ones. This keeps them in a constant state of high emotional arousal and can take the extreme forms of phobias or obsessive-compulsive disorders. Learning to use the imagination positively – by calmly rehearsing mentally tried and tested techniques (such as deep breathing and distracting thoughts) for dealing with feared or worrisome situations – is very effective. Calming ourselves down, when anxious, is extremely important because high emotional arousal makes us stupid. We literally can’t think straight and that makes the situation worse.
Human givens practitioners can show people how to relax, so that they can bring their own arousal and stress levels down, and how to use their imaginations positively, to rehearse successful outcomes instead of bad ones. They can also help people overcome phobias, panic attacks and traumatic memories quickly and painlessly. And, very importantly, they will encourage people to find ways to reduce their stress and also focus outwards on fulfilling activities (maybe involving the wellbeing of others as well as themselves) – excellent ways of getting their own needs met.

Anxiety is a feeling of worry or fear that is a normal response to a range of different situations. However, when we begin to feel overwhelmed or triggered from our past or current life experiences it engages our ‘flight or fight’ response. This happens when our body feels as if it’s in danger, This can be real or interpreted.
When you feel anxious or fearful every day your mental and physical health can be affected: You can feel varying levels of fear and anxiety which can cause sleepless nights, worry, sweating, nausia, hightened emotions and thoughts, feelings of wanting to stay under the duvet or sometimes thoughts of self harming and suicide.
Counselling can help you explore the cause of these feelings, understand them and work though them helping you manage day to day stresses in a healthier way and help you free yourself of possible responses to historic experiences.

Therapist, MBACP Prof Dip
Anxiety and fear can affect every part of life, leaving you feeling trapped in overthinking, worry, avoidance, panic, self-doubt, or constant anticipation that something bad is about to happen. I work with clients to understand not just the symptoms of anxiety, but the deeper patterns, experiences, relationships, and pressures that may be driving it underneath. Together, we can explore what your anxiety is trying to protect you from, why certain fears feel so powerful, and how to develop a greater sense of safety, confidence, and calm. My approach is less about managing symptoms alone and more about understanding your inner world and what may need to change beneath the surface.

Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
The anxiety that returns every morning despite everything you know about it, is not a thinking problem. It's a nervous system state - one that was adaptive once, and has simply never received the signal that things have changed. We work with that signal directly: not by challenging anxious thoughts, but by helping the body experience the safety it hasn't yet been able to internalise. Many clients notice shifts in their baseline anxiety within the first weeks of the programme.

Hypnotherapist, FNCIP SQHP
Anxiety or fears are often learned nervous system responses rather than personal weaknesses. I work with anxiety or fears by supporting greater emotional safety, understanding how patterns formed, and gently changing how fear is experienced. The focus is on building stability and confidence while reducing how overwhelming these reactions feel in daily life.

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Who does not know fear? It is another core emotion - part of the very fabric of our inner lives. In good-enough development we develop a range of coping mechanisms that support us in managing fear and worry when they arise. In some cases, however, we struggle and we become too overwhelmed. In our desire to get rid of what might feel like an excessive, unbearable emotion, we start doing things that might hinder our lives (e.g. relying on substances to self-regulate; self-isolating; or trying to control ourselves and what surrounds us in excessive ways).
If you would like to understand better your ways of experiencing and responding to anxiety and fear, please get in touch.
