Anxiety
Ajay Sahota
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC (Registered Clinical Counsellor)
Anxiety is future oriented. When we are anxious, we worry, or feel uncertain, about the future. Statistics Canada found in a 2020 survey that post-COVID, over 60% of Canadians experience mild symptoms of anxiety. Gender diverse persons experience over 60% severe symptoms. Anxiety makes us fearful. It also leads to a tendency to avoid certain situations.
I am here to help you adopt healthier ways to respond to emotions. My wish is to help you uncover the function of depression or anxiety and help you heal from regrets or losses of the past, and be present in the here and now instead of being caught up in worry for the future.

Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
Anxiety is the most commonly reported concern among clients at Nightingale Counselling, and our therapists understand that it is not a disorder or pathology but a normal human experience that can become deeply distressing when it goes into overdrive. We work with clients across the full spectrum of anxiety, from everyday stress and worry to panic, insomnia, and social anxiety, addressing both the immediate symptoms and the deeper root causes that so often go unexplored. Using a combination of practical stabilization tools like breathing and grounding techniques alongside deeper therapeutic exploration, our Registered Clinical Counsellors help clients build lasting insight and capacity rather than simply managing symptoms from session to session.

Anxiety
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.

Anxiety and persistent fears can affect daily functioning, sleep, concentration, and overall sense of safety.

Using a trauma-informed and integrative approach, we focus on calming the nervous system, strengthening emotional resilience, and restoring a greater sense of control and inner stability.

Yanna Martinek
Counsellor/Therapist, R.C.C.
Rather than focusing only on thoughts, we work with the nervous system—helping your body learn what safety feels like again. Together, we explore how anxiety shows up for you and build practical tools to support regulation, resilience, and a greater sense of ease. Over time, this allows fear to feel less overwhelming and more workable.

Anxiety
Melinda Freitas
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RCC, CCC
Anxiety needs to be normalized in society. Nobody is "failing" because they are anxious. It's a sign that your own instincts / survival response is activated. I work with clients in creating a different relationship with their nervous system.

Anxiety
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.

Online in Richmond, BC British Columbia
Richmond, British Columbia is one of the most ethnically Chinese cities outside of Asia — with Chinese Canadians comprising a significant majority of the population and Mandarin and Cantonese widely spoken — creating a therapy community where demand for Chinese-language and culturally competent therapists far exceeds available supply. The city's proximity to Vancouver International Airport and its role as a gateway community for recent immigrants from Hong Kong, mainland China, and Taiwan shapes a therapy landscape particularly attuned to immigration stress, cross-cultural family dynamics, and the identity challenges of first-generation residents. Richmond Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community that is increasingly building capacity in Chinese-language care. Help-seeking stigma in some East Asian communities remains a significant barrier, and many therapists in Richmond invest considerable clinical energy in normalizing therapy as part of their work.
