Mary Rose Dias
Therapist, MSc, BA, EMCC Senior Practitioner, Certified iRest Meditation Teacher
When anxiety or fear is present our brain is sending us a message to say "I am not safe" and our sympathetic nervous system (flight or fight response) is activated. Being in this state is a lot for our central nervous system to manage. To support in recovery from anxiety or fear I introduce tools to clients to soothe the central nervous system and help them feel safe in their bodies and in their minds. I remind clients that all emotions, feelings and thoughts are simply sensations and are not their reality. I also use mindfulness with clients which is an empowering way to safely and gently meet and interact with sensations without letting the sensation consume, control or limit them

Uri Bookman
Counsellor/Therapist, PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), Relationship & Couples Counsellor, Certified Coach
As a PACFA Registered Clinical Counsellor (30041), I work with thoughtful, capable adults who may understand their anxiety intellectually yet still find themselves reacting when triggered. Together, we look beneath the anxiety to understand the patterns, triggers and underlying dynamics driving it. Rather than only managing symptoms, the work develops greater awareness and capacity to respond differently, creating more clarity, choice and inner space.

Registered Psychotherapist, MCouns
Through IFS, we'll explore the protective parts of you that create anxiety, understanding their positive intentions while helping you develop Self-leadership to soothe your nervous system. The somatic elements help you recognise how anxiety lives in your body and develop embodied tools for regulation. Solution-focused techniques help us identify what already works for you in managing difficult emotions.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
The pressure to 'be' something in the world can be overwhelming. Add to that the distress of what's happening in our ecosystem and, through that lens, having anxiety absolutely makes sense.
When it comes to the climate crisis, feelings such as anxiety, guilt, terror, grief, anger, despair and helplessness are not something to be fixed or cured. They are healthy, appropriate responses. They show that you care.
My experience is that anxiety and fear often come from needing, but not being able, to predict the future. And the fear of the fear itself can be debilitating. It doesn't have to be that way.
We work to bring your body on board so that your mind can take a break from its catastrophic thought cycles. Bringing the body on board also helps to build your supports and your ground and to soothe your weary mind.
