Arne Pedersen - Hypnotherapy Victoria
Hypnotherapist, RCCH
Anxiety and fear often arise when the nervous system has learned to stay on guard, anticipating threat even when there is no immediate danger. Many people experience anxiety as persistent worry, physical tension, or a constant sense of unease — despite knowing logically that they are safe.
From a mindfulness-based perspective, anxiety is understood as a protective response shaped by past experiences where uncertainty, stress, or emotional overwhelm felt difficult to manage. Over time, the nervous system can remain stuck in fight-or-flight, reacting to present situations as though the past is still happening.
When the body stays in this heightened state, it uses a great deal of energy and has little opportunity to return to balance, rest, and repair. This ongoing strain can create an internal sense of threat, reinforcing the feeling that life is unsafe and causing external situations to be perceived as more dangerous or overwhelming than they actually are.
In our work together, the focus is on helping the nervous system gradually recognize safety in the present moment. Through mindfulness practices, breath awareness, and body-based awareness, clients learn how to become more comfortable with uncomfortable emotions and the physical sensations that arise with them.
As people gain experience staying present with these feelings, confidence grows. Anxiety often softens not because life becomes easier, but because there is a growing trust in the ability to feel, process, and move through whatever emotions life brings. When emotional capacity expands, fears lose their grip, and people experience greater freedom, clarity, and confidence in what they choose to do.
Hypnotherapy can further support this process by helping update subconscious threat responses and creating felt experiences of calm, safety, and steadiness that reinforce this trust.

Sherbrooke is the main city of Quebec's Eastern Townships region and the site of the Université de Sherbrooke, whose medical and health sciences faculty trains physicians and specialists serving much of the province, giving the city a significant healthcare and academic character that shapes its mental health landscape. Geographic isolation from Montreal, cold winters, and the economic challenges of a regional city not fully integrated into Quebec's larger urban economy contribute to seasonal affective disorder and depression being among the most common presenting concerns. The CIUSSS de l'Estrie–CHUS provides public mental health services to the region, and a private therapy sector—delivered primarily in French—serves those seeking faster access to care. Common therapy concerns include seasonal depression, anxiety, student mental health, relationship difficulties, and the particular challenges of a regional city where young people often migrate to Montreal after university.
