Stress
Rebekkah Stainton
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC
Your mind runs at high speed—analyzing, planning, preparing for every possible scenario. Sometimes that mental energy serves you well, but when chronic stress takes over, it can leave you feeling wired and tired at the same time.
In today’s world, stress is unavoidable. While stress itself is not inherently negative, it can become a problem when it gets out of control and even contribute to an overwhelming feeling of anxiety.
Whether you're dealing with ongoing burnout, sudden panic attacks, or that constant background hum of anxiety, we work with both your thinking brain and your nervous system to create real relief. This isn't about managing symptoms—it's about understanding why your system gets activated and developing tools that work with your body's natural responses.
You'll learn to recognize the early signals before stress overwhelms you and develop practical strategies that integrate both cognitive and somatic approaches to help you feel genuinely calm, not just temporarily distracted.

Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCS
Stress counselling provides a safe and relaxed environment to reflect on your life's challenges. When things feel overwhelming, it's good to work with someone who creates a supportive space to figure out what is draining you and how it is impacting your body. I use mindfulness and somatic tools, as well as addressing self-care and self-compassion in this work. I specialize in burnout prevention and strive to help my clients live more authentically and get out of "survival mode".

Shelley Murphy, Food & Body Image Hypnotherapist
Hypnotherapist, BASc, Former RD
Stress can feel overwhelming, constant, and exhausting - affecting your mind, body, and daily life. Clinical hypnotherapy offers a gentle, evidence-based approach to help you manage stress more effectively. By guiding you into a deeply relaxed and focused state, hypnotherapy allows your mind and body to shift out of the cycle of tension, worry, and overthinking. Our work together can help you identify and release the patterns that trigger stress, improve emotional regulation, and develop practical tools to cope with challenging situations. Many clients find that hypnotherapy not only reduces immediate feelings of stress but also helps create lasting resilience, calm, and clarity, so you can respond to life’s demands with greater ease and confidence.

Stress
Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Stress can show up as feeling constantly overwhelmed, mentally overloaded, feeling shutdown, emotionally drained, burnt out, or caught in a state of “always needing to do more.” You may notice tension in your body, racing thoughts, difficulty resting or sleeping, or carrying pressure to keep everything under control. I work somatically, trauma-informed, and with the nervous system, inner child, and energy field in mind to help release the deeper roots of chronic stress patterns. My focus is compassionate, root-cause healing that supports your body and mind in finding greater regulation, balance, and inner ease as you move through life.

Stress
Dena Marie Counselling & EMDR Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MEd, RCC
Running on empty, unable to switch off even when you finally get a break, feeling on edge more days than not — chronic stress keeps your mind and body stuck in overdrive. Using EMDR, I help you process the experiences, memories, or patterns keeping you in that heightened state of tension, so your nervous system can actually settle rather than just being pushed through. Over time, this supports greater calm, balance, and resilience in your daily life.

Christina Harrison | Vicara Wellness |
Counsellor/Therapist, Integrative Holistic Coach and Practitioner | Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner |
Stress isn't only something happening in your calendar—it can become something your whole system begins carrying. Over time, you may notice tension, exhaustion, irritability, difficulty settling, disrupted sleep, emotional overwhelm, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Together, we'll slow things down yourself. Together, we'll slow things down enough to understand what your system needs. Using somatic awareness, mindfulness, counselling, and holistic practices, I support clients in developing greater capacity to regulate stress, reconnect with themselves, and move through life with more ease, presence, and choice.
