Anxiety
What It Is:
Anxiety, in all its forms, is simply the overactivation of our body’s fight, flight, or freeze response; it occurs when our sympathetic nervous system is stuck in ON mode.
Why It Happens:
Fear is a natural part of our brain’s warning system. It’s supposed to act like a fire alarm, alerting us to danger and motivating us to take action. But if we don’t know where the danger is coming from or what action to take, the alarm becomes chronic, and fear becomes anxiety.
What It Looks Like:
Anxiety can take many forms. For some, it’s a low but consistent buzzing - an undercurrent of restlessness that keeps them constantly in motion and makes it hard to relax. For others, it’s loud and intense - a tidal wave of fear or sensations that can feel paralyzing. Sometimes anxiety shows up in the mind with critical, intrusive or worst-case-scenario thoughts. Sometimes anxiety shows up in the body, with tension, agitation or a sense of waiting for the other shoe to drop. Whether it’s high achieving-anxiety, can’t-get-out-of-bed-anxiety, or something in between, we can help.
-
Depression
What It Is:
Depression is the overactivation of our body’s shut-down system; it’s when our parasympathetic nervous system is stuck in OFF mode.
Why It Happens:
Shutting down is a normal part of our self-protective system. It’s a little like hibernating to ride out the winter. Sometimes, when we experience something difficult that feels chronic, inescapable, or hopeless, our system goes into shut-down mode to numb the pain and help us cope.
What It Looks Like:
Depression has many faces. It can be a subtle irritability, like a bad mood you can’t seem to shake. Things you love, like hobbies or hanging out with friends, may feel like a chore and not worth the energy. Sometimes, it can be all-consuming. A profound emptiness that strips everything from you and makes you feel like a ghost floating through life, unable to touch anything.
-
Relationship Difficulties
What It Is:
Relationship difficulties are caused by attachment patterns that lead us to respond to others in ways that drive us apart or leave us feeling hurt and disconnected.
Why It Happens:
As we grow up, our brain creates templates for everything - including relationships. These templates contain everything we’ve learned about relationships, like how to connect, how to navigate conflict, and what to expect from others. These templates form the foundation of how we relate to others and follow us from childhood into adulthood. Sometimes, our templates are helpful, but sometimes, they’re outdated or don't suit our relationships.
What It Looks Like:
When we’re stuck in outdated, unhelpful, or mismatched relationship templates, it can be hard to feel at ease, close, and connected. We may feel anxious or insecure in our relationship or find ourselves trying to please, putting our needs second, and avoiding confrontation. Or we may feel irritable, annoyed, or trapped and have the impulse to withdraw and disconnect.
-
Trauma
What It Is:
Trauma is the continued activation of our self-protective responses (fight, flight, freeze, shut down), causing our nervous system to alternate between high and low arousal states.
Why It Happens:
Trauma is less about what happens to us than what happens inside us. When something is too big, too frightening, or too painful, it can overwhelm our ability to mentally “digest” (feel, understand, and let go of) the experience. When this happens, we are unable to move on from it fully, so it gets carried with us.
What It Looks Like:
Trauma can be like a volcano. Most of it lies below the surface, and when the pressure becomes too great, it breaks through in an explosion of fire and feeling. Sometimes, it shows up abruptly with intense symptoms like reactivity, hypervigilance, flashbacks, and intrusive thoughts. Other times, it’ll just bubble up, sending out subtle smoke signals like anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, chronic pain or compulsive and addictive behaviours.
-
Dissociation
What It Is:
Dissociation is one of the body’s natural adaptations to trauma, overwhelming feelings, or chronic stress. It’s a coping strategy that helps us manage difficult experiences by creating distance between us and the emotional and psychological impact of those experiences.
Why It Happens:
Being able to distance ourselves psychologically and emotionally from something troubling is very adaptive. We all compartmentalize - it’s a normal and healthy way of “setting aside” something stressful until we have the space and time to deal with it. Dissociation is a more extreme version of compartmentalization meant to deal with more severe stressors. When something is overwhelming or unbearable, our system can get overloaded, and we need a lot more distance from it - perhaps even tucking it outside of conscious awareness - to go on with normal life.
What It Looks Like:
Dissociation is essentially your brain saying, “Hey, look over here!” to keep you from focusing on traumas and overwhelming experiences, the mind tries to keep you occupied with other things, like daydreams. We can be distracted, zone out frequently, and struggle to focus or remember things. Sometimes, things feel fuzzy, far away, or unreal, and people feel disconnected from their bodies, others, or reality.
-
Chronic Pain & Somatic Symptoms
What It Is:
Chronic pain and persistent somatic symptoms are indicators of a change in how the nervous system perceives and responds to pain.
Why It Happens:
Idiopathic pain and unexplained somatic symptoms can be mystifying, but they are caused by natural, neuroplastic adaptations. This can happen for a few reasons.
One can be thought of as a kind of “allergic response” to pain. When something is extremely painful, our nervous system views it as a threat, which triggers our fight or flight response and, over time, rewires our neural pathways in a way that compounds the pain.
Another reason for chronic pain and somatic symptoms is perfectly captured by the famous book titled The Body Keeps the Score. One way our mind deals with overwhelming experiences is by pushing them away, which can be useful as it helps us go on with life. The only catch is that those pushed-away experiences don’t disappear; they get stored in the body as physical sensations.
In either case, the nervous system’s pain circuitry is altered, causing misfiring, overfiring or sometimes backfiring, which translates to persistent somatic symptoms.
What It Looks Like:
Chronic pain and somatic symptoms can vary in form and intensity. Sometimes, they show up as chronic stomach aches, headaches, or unexplained body pain. Sometimes, they create persistent tension patterns, causing our breathing to feel restricted, our chest to feel tight, or our shoulders to feel like we’ve been carrying around weights all day. Sometimes, the changes to our body’s pain circuitry can lead to persistent health conditions like chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.
-
Compulsive & Addictive Behaviours
What It Is:
Compulsions and addictions are mental, emotional, and/or behavioural habitual loops that our system develops as a way to manage and cope with intolerable distress.
Why It Happens:
We are wired to seek relief from pain. When we experience something that we don’t know how to cope with, our mind and body instinctively try to escape it. But if it’s not something we can get away from, we may turn to other forms of escape. It’s kind of like changing the channel. If we find an escape strategy that works and provides some form of relief, a positive reinforcement cycle begins, and we learn to return to that strategy again and again.
What It Looks Like:
There are any number of things our system can find escape in, from substances to thoughts to behaviours. We can develop unhealthy relationships with daily activities like eating, shopping, gaming, and social media. Some of us become compulsive about what we do, how we think or what we eat, while others rely on food, alcohol or drugs to help them cope.
Sometimes, our escape strategies can sneak up on us. Initially, we don’t see them as bad. We see them as rewards. Little treats we give ourselves after a long day, like our own personal gold stars. Occasionally, though, those stars have a real pull; we can get caught in their orbit, and our lives start to revolve around them.

EMDR
What It Is:
When we experience something overwhelming or traumatic, the stress it causes can interfere with our brain’s natural ability to process the information. It's like these experiences become trapped in our nervous system and the distress lives on. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) activates the parts of the brain that are involved in memory processing, tapping into the system’s natural healing mechanisms to reprocess and integrate difficult experiences.
What It Looks Like:
In an EMDR session, you’ll focus on a distressing experience while your therapist guides you through a series of eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation. This method helps your brain reprocess the memory without falling back into it, reducing its emotional charge and giving your brain the space it needs to resolve the issue
What The Benefits Are:
EMDR can help with:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- PTSD, Relational and Attachment Trauma
- Phobias and fear responses
- Complex grief
- Overwhelming memories and emotions
-
Somatic Psychotherapy
What It Is:
When we experience something, we experience it with our whole being, not just our minds. Somatic psychotherapy is a body-centred approach that goes beyond talk therapy to help us process and release pent-up trauma, sensations and emotions that have become trapped in the body - things that traditional talk therapy has trouble reaching.
What It Looks Like:
Somatic therapy aims to bring you out of your mind and into your body by drawing your attention to what you’re experiencing, where you’re feeling it, and what memories, emotions or beliefs are connected to it. Then, using movement, mindfulness, and other body-based techniques, you and your therapist will work with the somatic experience to process unconscious patterns, release blockages, and reconnect the mind and body.
What The Benefits Are:
Somatic Psychotherapy can help with:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- PTSD, Relational and Attachment Trauma
- Dissociation and Complex PTSD
- Implicit and non-verbal traumas
- Nervous system dysregulation, such as hyper and hypoarousal
- Chronic pain and somatic symptoms
-
Internal Family Systems
What It Is:
IFS understands the mind as being made up of different “parts,” each with its own unique functions and roles that can sometimes come into conflict with each other. By recognizing and working directly with parts, IFS helps you connect to and understand yourself more deeply, resolve inner conflicts and find relief from anxiety, confusion and disconnection.
What It Looks Like:
Using props, mindfulness exercises, and visualization techniques, your therapist will help you identify the different parts of you that come forward and take charge at different times. Together, we will explore these parts' roles, perspectives, and any pain or trauma they might be holding, helping them heal and strengthening your true Self.
What The Benefits Are:
IFS can help with:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Relational and Attachment Trauma
- Dissociation and Complex PTSD
- Relationship concerns
- OCD
- Addictive patterns
-
Deep Brain Reorienting
What It Is:
When we experience something overwhelming or traumatic, the neurological shock response that follows can become locked in specific parts of the midbrain - areas that are notoriously difficult to access with talk therapy. Using a targeted somatic approach, DBR focuses on the brain regions that house our instinctual responses to threat and attachment disruptions to access and process deeply rooted emotional responses.
What It Looks Like:
In a DBR session, you and your therapist will explore specific sensations that correspond to the brain’s natural reflexes to distress. As you access and reset these deep, neurological responses, the body and brain can process them, allowing entrenched emotional patterns and unresolved trauma to be released.
What The Benefits Are:
DBR can help with:
- Psychological and emotional shock
- PTSD, Relational and Attachment Trauma
- Dissociation and Complex PTSD
- Implicit and non-verbal traumas
- Nervous system dysregulation, such as hyper and hypoarousal
-
Emotionally Focused Therapy
What It Is:
Emotions and our biological need for connection play a central role in our identity, relationships and overall well-being. Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is an evidence-based approach that focuses on the role of emotions and attachment patterns in shaping our thoughts, behaviours, and relational dynamics. By uncovering the source of our reactions and addressing their root cause, we’re able to transform our emotional and relational patterns.
What It Looks Like:
In EFT, your therapist will help you identify the emotional cycles that contribute to distress, dissatisfaction, and relationship conflict. You will then explore the underlying needs and attachment patterns driving these cycles and can begin to change how you relate to yourself and others, fostering healthier relationships and a stronger sense of self.
What The Benefits Are:
EFT can help with:
- Relational and Attachment Trauma
- Self-esteem issues
- Interpersonal concerns (eg. difficulties with boundaries, people-pleasing patterns, etc.)
- Relationship concerns (eg. communication difficulties, healthy dependency, trust and intimacy issues, etc.)
-
Mindfulness
What It Is:
In our fast-paced world, our minds often get caught up in worries about the future or ruminations about the past. Mindfulness, at its core, is simply a type of attention. In the same way, our attention can be focused or scattered, it can also be mindful. By bringing our attention to the present moment with a sense of openness and non-judgment, we can cultivate a sense of presence and calm amidst the chaos.
What It Looks Like:
Sometimes, mindfulness is used as a therapeutic tool in and of itself. Your therapist may guide you through mindfulness practices such as guided visualizations, breathing exercises, or body scans, as a way of helping you observe and understand your experience.
More often, we use mindfulness alongside other types of therapy, such as EMDR, IFS or Somatic Psychotherapy. Mindfulness has a wide range of neurological benefits, and integrating it with other experiential therapies greatly enhances their effectiveness.
What The Benefits Are:
Mindfulness can help with:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Chronic stress
- Chronic pain and tension
- Sleep disorders
-
Expressive Arts Therapy
What It Is:
We are sensory beings and live in a world that cannot be merely expressed in words. Image, sound and movement are embedded in our daily lives and deeply tied into our experience of trauma and relationships. Because of this, the creative process has long been used as a way of accessing, expressing and releasing emotions. Often used in tandem with other therapies, art, music, and movement can provide a more accessible approach to exploring our inner world.
What It Looks Like:
You and your therapist may use art, sound and movement in psychotherapy to help you access nonverbal and unconscious experiences. Sometimes this means visualizing or drawing what we can’t express in words, sometimes it means using music to tap into deeper emotions. Expressive arts therapies are often used alongside other therapies, such as EMDR, IFS and Somatic Therapy, to enhance their effectiveness.
What The Benefits Are:
Expressive Arts Therapies can help with:
- PTSD, Relational and Attachment Trauma
- Dissociation and Complex PTSD
- Implicit and non-verbal traumas
- Integration of expanded states of consciousness
