[EN] Anxiety or fears can show up as constant anticipation, overthinking, tension, or a sense that something could go wrong even when you understand there may be no immediate danger. Rather than focusing only on getting rid of anxiety, we explore what happens in the moment and what the fear may be connected to in your relationships, choices, and experience of yourself. My relational and somatic approach includes attention to your thoughts, emotions, body, and what becomes possible when you do not have to organize everything around the fear.
[FR] L’anxiété ou les peurs peuvent prendre la forme d’une anticipation constante, de pensées qui tournent en boucle, de tension ou de l’impression que quelque chose pourrait mal aller même quand tu comprends qu’il n’y a pas nécessairement de danger immédiat. Plutôt que de chercher seulement à faire disparaître l’anxiété, nous explorons ce qui se passe sur le moment et ce à quoi la peur peut être liée dans tes relations, tes choix et ton rapport à toi-même. Mon approche relationnelle et somatique porte attention aux pensées, aux émotions, au corps et à ce qui devient possible lorsque tu n’as pas à tout organiser autour de la peur.

You find it difficult to quiet your mind and feel like you’re constantly overthinking. You may strive for perfection or say yes when you really mean no. I can help you regulate your nervous system so you can make choices guided by your values, rather than by anxiety.

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.

Hardie Counselling & BrainWorX, Inc
Registered Psychotherapist, BFA, B.Ed, MA, CPC, CCPCPR, CCAC, ICADC, CSAT, CCTP, CCTACP
Are you struggling with anxiety? Fear? Is anxiety/fear getting in the way of having the kind of life that you want? Does it prevent you from having the kind of relationship you want/need? Does it keep you from being able to communicate? Is it difficult to attain your goals? (Or make any?) do you have trouble sleeping at night? Do you use food to comfort and escape?
I strongly believe in the power of therapy to help you work through your anxiety and/or fear which can just be symptoms of an underlying root negative belief that may be holding you hostage. I look forward to working with you to permanently free you from what is preventing you from living a life free of anxiety and/or fear.

Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Feeling anxious or having specific fears can be overwhelming. It can begin to take over your live by dictating what you can and cannot do. Therapy can help by helping you develop the strategies to cope and begin to take the power back from fear and anxiety.
