Anxiety
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.

Anna Vaisser Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, MEd, RCC
Anxiety and fear can show up as racing thoughts, tension in the body, or a constant sense of being on alert. I help you understand these reactions through both a cognitive and somatic lens—why they developed, how they’re maintained, and how they can be gently shifted. Using mindfulness‑based practices, body‑focused therapies, parts work, and evidence‑based approaches like CBT, we build your capacity for self‑regulation so you can move through life with more steadiness and clarity. My goal is to help you feel less overwhelmed by your internal experience and more connected to your own resilience.

When we feel safe and secure within ourselves, with our families, and with our significant others, many of our anxieties and fears fall away. We are able to explore and engage with the world with excitement, wonder and confidence. I will come alongside to help you find ways of not only managing anxiety and fear but also help you come to appreciate the messages these emotions are communicating and how to more effectively work with them.

Anxiety
Kate Paul
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Low levels of anxiety can motivate us to accomplish goals and perform at our best. As the level of experienced anxiety creeps higher, it robs us of our joy and can make us feel overwhelmed resulting in either inactivity or a compulsion to be overactive yet not experiencing any lasting relief. Our sense of internal peace and calm is replaced by perpetual overthinking and fear. Let's work together to gain insight into the cause of your anxiety so that we are able to empower you to reclaim your experience of joy and a sense of internal calm.

Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist and Certified Hypnotherapist
You find it difficult to quiet your mind and feel like you’re constantly overthinking. You may strive for perfection or say yes when you really mean no. I can help you regulate your nervous system so you can make choices guided by your values, rather than by anxiety.
