Everyone experiences times of great stress in their lives. Stress can feel debilitating and hopeless. You may be exhibiting behaviours that you don't like. You may not be thinking clearly. Relationships may be harmed. Sometimes you think your life will always be like this. I can work with you to understand yourself more and understand your environment better. When you are experiencing stress, it is good to gain new perspectives by talking to someone who is compassionate and unbiased.

Stress
Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
Stress is one of the most important topics to explore and understand comprehensively; it is what creates and causes so many of the other problems we have. If you are reading this blurb about stress, I am sure you are also dealing with problematic behaviours such as anxiety, reactivity, fatigue, depression, anger issues, isolation, and/or sleep disruption, just to name a few. Stress can come from our relationships, work, school, family, etc., and it can be better understood and managed to reduce the negative impact it can have on our lives. When I work with my clients on stress, which I do with every client, we focus in on why the stress is so impactful for the individual, and what tools or protocols can be used to remedy the issue.

Stress
Berry Didier Nibogora - Bilingual CBT therapist @ CMAP Health
Counsellor/Therapist, RP(Q), CCPA, LLM
Stress is a normal response to a perceived danger that fully mobilizes a person’s resources to fight, flee or freeze. It is not a bad thing in and by itself. However, continued arousal is bad for our physical and mental health. Understand the stress response and learning tools to bring ourselves down in situations of crisis (using relaxation techniques for instance) as well as preventative or proactive self-care strategies, emotional regulation and mindfulness are amongst effective approaches to managing stress to the healthy levels.

Stress
Malika Chandra
Registered Psychotherapist, MPS, RP (Qualifying)
Anxiety prevents you from being present and puts you in a position where you are either ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. In the moment, it can feel impossible to get out of it, and one cannot simply snap out of it. Similarly, stress can permeate multiple aspects of your life. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as mindfulness exercises to help you manage your anxiety. Eventually, we would also work together to understand why the anxiety shows up and how we can address the original source. Reach out today to book a free consultation.

By using somatic based strategies I help clients to understand the origins of stress and how it impacts our minds and physical bodies.

Stress
Dennis Keefe
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A.
My approach to stress is usually to start with the basics. Is the client getting enough sleep, sunlight, proper nutrition, exercise/movement, social contact? Then we can get into focused coping mechanisms that can help the client reduce and better manage stress. Finding ways to ultimately soothe the nervous system can have profound impact on a person's sense of wellbeing and agency.

Chantelle Carrier
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
LIfe can be incredibly stressful, and sometimes it pushes us past our ability to cope. Together we will look at increasing that coping tool box, sorting through any possible solutions to problems you are facing, and giving you the space to talk about all you are going through.

Devka Andotra
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Stress is not just about feeling overwhelmed in the moment as it can be rooted in deeper patterns, past experiences, or ongoing life demands that feel impossible to escape. Whether you are dealing with short-term stressors or long-term burnout, therapy can help you understand where your stress comes from, how it affects you, and what you can do to regain control. For immediate relief, I integrate CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to help you manage daily stressors. For deeper, long-standing stress patterns, we may explore psychodynamic insights, family systems, or existential perspectives to uncover and reshape underlying beliefs that contribute to chronic stress. Together, we will create a plan that not only helps you cope but also fosters lasting emotional resilience.
