Hiba Khatkhat @ Under The Oaks Self Care Center
Registered Psychotherapist, MA CMHC, RP
Stress can come in many forms. Not all stress is bad. In fact, as humans, we need the right balance of stress for motivation and peak performance. And, for people living with trauma, stress is a rigid experience that interferes with their daily life. When stress starts to affect your well-being; leading to fatigue, exhaustion, and burnout; you many need a helping hand to recalibrate and find your balance again.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
My passion is helping people from various walks of life who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed and irritable. I am interested in getting to know your experiences and unique pain points. I understand the courage it takes to reach out for help. I strive to provide relevant, responsive and collaborative therapy by prioritizing rapport-building and using a compassionate approach so that you feel safe as you explore the experiences and feelings. You are not your difficulties or even how you are coping with them, though some days it can feel that way; and so it is important for us to explore your goals, strengths and story as we tackle the challenges that you are facing.
I use an eclectic approach, drawing on numerous approaches including Emotion-focused, Cognitive Behavioural, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Internal Family Systems, Family Systems, Polyvagal theory, Solution-Focused and EMDR to tailor therapy to you. If you are looking for a compassionate therapist who cares not only about your difficulties, but also about how they developed and how they impact you, who is culturally sensitive and aware, and who will support your self-discovery, I would be honoured to be a part of your journey. Contact me directly to schedule a complimentary phone consultation where I can answer your questions. You deserve a meaningful and peaceful life. Let's embark on this journey.

Victoria Jacobs
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., R.P.
Stress can feel different depending on the stage of life you are in. For adolescents, it often shows up around school pressure, social dynamics, identity questions, and balancing expectations at home and with friends. For emerging adults, the transition into post-secondary life can bring stress about academics, independence, friendships, dating, and figuring out who you are away from home. For young adults, stress often comes from balancing early career demands, relationships, financial responsibilities, and the shift into greater independence. In therapy we slow things down and make sense of what your stress is telling you. Together we look at how it shows up in your body, thoughts, and daily life, then practise tools that help regulate your nervous system and give you space to choose how you want to respond.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel tense, overwhelmed, or unable to slow down? Many of us grow up learning to push through pressure, ignore signals from our bodies, or treat busyness as a badge of honor. Over time, chronic stress can impact your energy, focus, and well-being.
These feelings are not a flaw—they are signals that your mind and body need care. What matters is how you respond when stress arises. Together, we can explore what’s driving your tension, develop strategies to regulate your nervous system, and help you feel more grounded, balanced, and lighter over time. You experience stress for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

Stress is the body's response to challenging or demanding situations. It can have a wide range of effects on a person's physical and emotional well-being, and is perhaps the single biggest threat to our mental health today. Every day we are surrounded by noise, pressure, and unhealthy standards, each of which can impact us in negative ways. Learning how to manage stress is a vital part of healthy living in the 21st century. Our therapists can help you do so.

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I help clients navigate stress by exploring the deeper emotional and relational patterns that may be contributing to overwhelm. Through a psychodynamic lens, we look at how internalized pressures, early caregiving dynamics, and unconscious beliefs about worth or responsibility shape the way stress is experienced. Together, we work toward greater insight, regulation, and a more compassionate way of relating to yourself under pressure.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Although stress is a normal reaction to a real or perceived threat, as it prompts us to get out of any immediate danger, too much of it is never a good thing. However, in Western society, it can be a daily occurrence that could occur due to any kind of reason. Significant stress can result in a sufferer’s body and mind feeling the pressure of the stressor. A lot of prolonged stress can be overwhelming, creating problems in the sufferer’s relationships, work, and daily functioning.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
Are you feeling overwhelmed, depleted, or like you're running on empty?
You may be having difficulty concentrating, feeling restless or irritable, or noticing changes in your sleep, motivation, or ability to enjoy the things that once helped you recharge. Perhaps you're withdrawing from others, feeling more emotional than usual, or finding that the strategies you've relied on to manage stress no longer work.
When stress becomes chronic, it can affect both our emotional and physical well-being—and gradually make life feel smaller. We may get caught in patterns of overthinking, avoidance, perfectionism, or trying to control what we can't control.
Together, we'll explore what is contributing to your stress and burnout, how your mind and body respond, and which patterns may be keeping you stuck. Using ACT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed approaches, we'll develop practical strategies to respond to stress with greater flexibility and self-compassion.
Where appropriate, EMDR can also be incorporated when past experiences or unresolved stressors continue to contribute to heightened emotional or physiological responses.
The goal isn't to become better at tolerating an unsustainable pace. It's to understand what you need, reconnect with what matters, and create more space for rest, connection, and a life that feels meaningful and manageable.
