Karine Flynn
Psychologist, MSc, GMBPS
Chronic stress is the nervous system stuck in activation with nowhere to discharge. When the body has been running on high alert for long enough, it stops feeling like stress and starts feeling like personality - like just the way you are. Somatic work creates the conditions for the nervous system to finally down-regulate: not through relaxation techniques, but through completing the physiological cycles that chronic stress interrupts.

Samira Gholami
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor
Do you feel like you're constantly juggling responsibilities, trying to meet everyone's expectations, and struggling to find a moment to breathe? Whether you're managing a demanding career, academic pressures, family responsibilities, or challenging relationships, prolonged stress can leave you feeling emotionally drained, irritable, disconnected, and overwhelmed. You may find yourself putting everyone else's needs ahead of your own, wondering when you'll finally have time to take care of yourself.
As a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC), I offer compassionate, affordable counselling to help adolescents and adults better understand and manage the pressures affecting their emotional well-being. My experience in community mental health includes developing and facilitating psychoeducational programs focused on stress management, relationships, and parenting, giving me valuable insight into the challenges people face when balancing multiple demands.
Drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), person-centred counselling, and trauma-informed principles, I work collaboratively with you to identify sources of stress, recognize patterns contributing to emotional exhaustion, and develop practical strategies for managing life's demands more effectively.
I also understand that stress can be influenced by cultural expectations, family dynamics, perfectionism, and the pressure to fulfill multiple roles. My culturally responsive approach provides space to explore these influences while helping you establish healthier boundaries, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop greater self-compassion.
Managing stress isn't simply about learning to handle more responsibilities. Sometimes, it's about recognizing your limits, making room for your own needs, and finding a healthier balance between what you give to others and what you give to yourself.
I offer affordable counselling in English and Farsi and would welcome the opportunity to help you feel less overwhelmed, regain a sense of balance, and approach life's challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience.

John Castleford
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MIAEB, FRAI
Anxiety, Stress and Worry affects us all. We evolved to deal with occasional stressful threats--hence our "fight or flight" response. We did not evolve to deal with the increasing persistence and prevalence of stressful situations -- at home, in our communities, and workplaces. Anxiety about living with or after cancer invariably involves perceptions about what we imagine may happen. But the mind often has difficulty differentiating between what is real and what our imagination has created.
Fortunately there is a profusion of strategies for minimising stress and the effects of worry and anxiety, and my approaches involve building self-esteem up to previous levels, mindful mediation to enable you to take a step back from worrisome thoughts, rather than become subsumed by them, and helping you reorient locus of control so you are more in control of yourself, rather than delegating responsibility to external influences.
