Anxiety Counselling & Therapy in Vancouver BC

How anxiety counselling can help

Anxiety therapy isn’t about forcing yourself to “stop worrying.” It’s about learning how to work with your nervous system, understand what your anxiety is responding to, and build skills to respond differently when anxiety shows up.
1.

Identify

Learn to identify patterns and triggers that fuel your anxiety.
2.

Calm

Calm your nervous system and reduce physical symptoms.
3.

Shift

Reframe unhelpful
thought loops with greater clarity and compassion.
4.

Develop

Build tolerance for uncertainity and discomfort.

Our approach to anxiety therapy

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all labels. Your experience of anxiety is shaped by your culture, your identity, and your unique history. Our Vancouver clinical counsellors use a 'Full Spectrum' approach to help you heal:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Evidence-based approach that helps you identify and change anxious thought patterns and behaviours.

‍

Compassion-Focused Therapy

Develop self-compassion and reduce self-criticism, helping you build a healthier relationship with yourself.

‍
‍

Somatic and nervous-system-informed therapy

Body-centered, trauma-informed approach that treats mental health by focusing on physical sensations and the nervous system rather than just cognitive thoughts. It aims to release stored trauma, regulate stress responses, and restore balance through techniques like grounding, breathwork, and body awareness.

Mindfulness-Based Approaches

Learn to observe thoughts and feelings without judgment, reducing rumination and building emotional resilience.

‍

Acceptance-based strategies

An action-oriented, mindfulness-based psychotherapy that helps individuals accept difficult emotions and thoughts rather than fighting them.

Trauma-Informed Care

For depression rooted in past experiences, we integrate trauma-informed practices to address underlying causes.
