Simone Merkl Marriage Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
It can be normal to experience anxiety or fears, but when it starts taking over your life, it may be time to seek help. Let's explore all the areas of your life to see where this anxiety or fear may be coming from. The presence of fear is a natural response when one is in danger. Whereas, anxiety is more about continual thoughts of feeling unsafe or thinking something emotionally or physically devastating may happen. Learn strategies to help ground, relax, empower and free you to experience greater autonomy and joy in your life. Please feel free to contact me for a free 20-minute consultation today. I offer online sessions in Canada, BC. and in-person sessions in Langley or White Rock, BC.

Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CCC #7392
Anxiety can be crippling. It can keep you from enjoying social situations, excelling at work or school, or keeping you in a constant state of fear. You don't have to go through life scared of living. Yes, the unknown can be scary so let's talk about when that started, if it's really true (fun fact: not all thoughts are true!), other ways of looking at the situation, learning new skills, and trying new ways of being. We can develop a new you!

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.

Darren Williamson
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC (#23397)
The modern world tells us that it is bad to feel fearful or anxious. "Be happy" is the message we have been given from childhood through school, through our family, through TV and social media, as if happiness is the default and all other emotions are dysfunctional. This is not true. Happiness is important, but living life with only happiness is like eating a diet of only sugar, or listening to a song that is only bass. We need the lows to give meaning to the highs.
Through therapy, I will help you better understand your fear and anxiety without shaming or stigmatizing it. Once we understand the role your fear and anxiety plays in your life, we will find ways to make it work for you. And once you are able to accept your emotions without needing to avoid them, your happiness will feel more meaningful.
"Happiness cannot be pursued, it can only ensue. One must have a reason to be happy... Doing so would be the same as urging people posed in front of a camera to say “cheese,” only to find that in the finished photographs their faces are frozen in artificial smiles." Victor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Charlie Young
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC #22791
Chronic anxiety keeps the body in a low-level activated state, which over time contributes to digestive issues, persistent tension, disrupted sleep, and immune changes — part of why anxiety is exhausting even on days when nothing happens. My work addresses both the thinking, and sometimes trauma, that drives activation and the physical state that makes anxious thinking more likely, at a pace you can tolerate. I'm a queer and trans RCC providing virtual therapy across BC, specializing in gender-affirming care, hormone readiness assessments, and identity exploration, though any topic is welcome. Often our environments don't support us the way we need them to, and I help name that context rather than treating it as a problem arising within you. You can bring something specific or start with the sense that something is off — during the free 15-minute consult we'll talk about what brings you to counselling and how I can help.
