Anxiety Counselling (Panic & OCD)

“Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.”

Thich Nhat Hanh

Feeling overwhelmed?

 

Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress and can be beneficial in some situations. It can alert us to dangers and help us prepare and pay attention. But if anxiety hits when we least expect it, especially when it becomes panic or obsessive/compulsive (OCD), it can differ from normal feelings of nervousness or anxiousness. It becomes a fear that we can’t place.

When we don’t know what we’re scared of, it’s easy to feel as if we don’t know what’s coming around the corner. Anxiety has a way of sneaking into moments when we least expect it and can force us to feel distant or frozen. Panic can jump out at any moment and take over when we least want it to, leaving us feeling like our lives are out of our control. And the trigger for the anxiety can seem impossible to find, which can leave us even more helpless. But… you’re not alone.

 

Our online counsellors are trained to help you get to the heart of your anxiety.

You’ll learn how to support yourself during your anxiety, turn inward, listen to your intuition, and recognize where your anxiety is originating from. You can learn to steady yourself in the present moment, giving yourself strength and courage. This will allow the anxiety to ease away, processing the experience and helping you to live the life you want more of.

We can help with:

  • Anxiety

  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

  • Panic

  • Social Anxiety

  • Generalized Anxiety Disorder

We promise to nurture a space where you feel safe and valued - as you are - so you can explore what you want from your future with no judgment or fear of failure.

 

We view counselling as a joint process between you and your counsellor as we work towards a common goal — to empower positive change and improve the quality of your life — both now and in the future.

As mental health care professionals, our purpose is to help you identify the obstacles that are causing your anxiety to trigger. We promise to serve as your guide, helping you find your path and discover opportunities for growth along the way.

We will look at your current situation more in-depth to help you understand what’s holding you back and what’s causing you to feel so overwhelmed. From there we will get to the heart of your difficulties, make a plan, and help you develop the skills you need so you can better manage or resolve what’s troubling you.

Our goal is that by the end of our sessions you will not only have found relief, but you will feel empowered to boldly grow forward towards the life you want.

Or, let us help you find that right therapist fit.

The form takes less than 60 seconds to complete, and we’ll reach out with a couple of options for a free 20 minute consultation.
