Reema Qamar
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC, CCC
Therapy focuses on identifying critical incidences that informed underlying negative thoughts, fears, and beliefs that may be contributing to anxiety. CBT is used to explore earlier experiences and how they are perpetuating current anxiety symptoms and teaching coping strategies to deal with anxiety. A neurobiological lens is used to understand the impact of stress and brain development.

Seven Vistas - Professional Life Coach and Counsellor
Counsellor/Therapist, PCC, RPC-C, NLP Master Practitioner
I don't dislike people, I just freeze up in that environment and can't move. I might even like people, but can't be sure because the idea of social scares me. Not sure about holding conversation or what to say at all? Unsure how to show up or leave? What if they don't like me? Oh no, what if they do? What part of social is anxiety forming? Conversation? Crowds? Family? All? Something else?
It is just trying to tell you something, let's see if we can figure out what.
