Anne Geraldine Barnes
Registered Social Worker, Travailleuse Sociale/RSW Qc Mindful Self-Compassion, PNL, polyvagal informed/outils somatiques
FR : Le stress parental n’est pas qu’une sensation dans la tête, c’est une réponse biologique. Face aux défis de l’adolescence, votre système nerveux peut rester « coincé » en mode combat ou épuisement. Mon approche polyvagale vous aide à identifier ces états de survie pour calmer l’alarme interne. En régulant votre stress à la source, vous retrouvez la clarté nécessaire pour diriger votre famille avec calme plutôt que de réagir sous pression.
EN : Parental stress isn't just in your head—it's in your biology. Under the pressure of the teen years, your nervous system can get "stuck" in fight-or-flight or shutdown modes. My Polyvagal-informed approach helps you identify these survival states to quiet your internal alarm. By regulating stress at its biological root, you regain the clarity needed to lead your family from a place of calm rather than reacting under pressure.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Stress is a major part of grief because death changes daily life in a way the mind and body cannot easily absorb. A person who was part of your everyday world is suddenly no longer there, and that absence can feel shocking, unnatural, and impossible to make sense of. The permanence of death, the disruption of routines, the empty bedroom, the quiet house, the missed future, and the reality of never seeing that person again can create intense emotional and physical stress.
Grief-related stress can also come from triggers, looping thoughts, forgetfulness, irritability, exhaustion, loss of interest in people or hobbies, and the feeling that your thoughts are no longer fully in your control. A song, a coffee shop, a date, a smell, or an ordinary place can suddenly bring the loss back with force. These reactions can feel frightening because they are different from who you were before the loss.
As a certified grief coach, I support adults by acknowledging that these reactions make sense. I explain where grief-related stress comes from in plain, human language, without psychobabble, and help clients understand why their mind and body may be responding this way. I also offer practical tools to cope with triggers, manage overwhelming thoughts, soften the stress response, and move through daily life with more steadiness and support.

Gatineau sits directly across the Ottawa River from Canada's capital and functions as the Quebec side of the Ottawa-Gatineau National Capital Region, with a predominantly French-speaking population of federal government workers who access many services in both official languages. The city's identity is distinct from Ottawa — more working-class and francophone in character — and French-language therapy is the norm, with access to English-speaking practitioners limited relative to the Ontario side of the river. CISSS de l'Outaouais provides public mental health resources, and many Gatineau residents access the broader Ottawa-Gatineau therapy ecosystem via the bridges connecting both cities. Therapists here frequently encounter the stresses of public service careers, bilingual professional demands, and the particular challenges of raising families in a bicultural, bilingual metro area.
