Meredith Bailey - Redefining Relationships

Sara Tawadros
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Div in Clinical Counselling
Anxiety is a reaction to one's perceived threats. It is a reaction that causes a stress on our minds and bodies and can sometimes be debilitating. On the other hand, a little bit of anxiety can be helpful to protect us from danger and help us resolve problematic situations in one’s life.
My therapeutic approach is to help my clients understand the reason behind their anxiety while working together on acquiring the skills needed to manage such anxiety.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you constantly feel on edge or overwhelmed? Many of us grow up learning to push down our thoughts and feelings. We may have been told our anger is unacceptable, sadness is a weakness, or vulnerability should be avoided. However, these emotions are natural and valuable to personal growth and self-understanding. It is what we do with these feelings when they show up that makes all the difference. Together, we can process your experiences with the intention, so you can be more in control and feel lighter. You feel things deeply for a reason, let’s explore why and what now.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
Is anxiety taking up more space in your life than you’d like?
Perhaps you find yourself caught in a constant cycle of worry, doubt, overthinking, or fear. You may be rehashing past experiences, anticipating what could go wrong, or feeling unable to quiet the critical dialogue in your mind. Anxiety can also show up physically through panic, irritability, exhaustion, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed.
Sometimes anxiety isn’t simply about what is happening in the present. Past experiences can continue to influence how your brain and body respond to situations that feel threatening, even when you know you are safe.
As an EMDRIA-certified therapist, I use EMDR therapy to help clients process distressing or overwhelming experiences that may be contributing to anxiety, fears, panic, or emotional reactivity. EMDR can reduce the intensity of difficult memories and the emotional or physical responses connected to them, helping you respond to the present with greater flexibility.
We’ll work together to understand your anxiety, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical ways to relate differently to difficult thoughts, emotions, and sensations. I also integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based approaches to support greater self-compassion and emotional flexibility.
The goal isn’t to eliminate every worry or uncomfortable feeling. It’s to help you feel less controlled by them—so anxiety takes up less space and you have more freedom to engage in the relationships, activities, and experiences that matter to you.

Anxiety and fear can seriously impact our lives and well being. Our natural impulse is to move away from the things that cause anxiety and fear. But to over come we must move towards out worries. Coming to therapy can be the first step to gaining mastery over the things that are causing us stress. I'm here to support you and guide the process to feeling more empowered and greater peace.

Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
When anxiety is always running in the background, it can be difficult to feel present or trust yourself. You may find yourself overthinking conversations, anticipating the worst, seeking reassurance, or worrying about whether you've done something wrong. Therapy can help you understand these patterns, quiet the inner critic, and feel more grounded.
Taylor specializes in anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, and identity concerns. Her approach integrates IFS, somatic, attachment-based, and mindfulness-informed strategies to help you reconnect with yourself rather than continually second-guessing who you are and what you need.
Savanna specializes in working with first responders, health care professionals, and caregivers that are experiencing anxiety. She relies on practical tools to help create real change. Pulling from her years of experience as a nurse, she deeply understands the burnout and stress from being in a demanding field.

Victoria Jacobs
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P.
Anxiety is not a failure; it is your body trying to protect you. Together we notice how worry shows up in your thoughts, feelings, and habits, then build skills to respond on purpose. We use CBT to challenge unhelpful beliefs, emotion focused work to name and move through feelings, and simple body practices to settle the nervous system. When it fits, we can explore the roots of anxiety through an attachment based EFT lens and support deeper healing with IFS. Clinical hypnotherapy is also available for fears and phobias. We always go at your pace.
