Signs of OCD

Image
People often double check to make sure they’ve locked the front door or always wear their lucky socks on game days — simple rituals or habits that make them feel more secure.  Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by repetitive, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and irrational, excessive urges to do certain actions (compulsions). Although people with OCD may know that their thoughts and behaviors don’t make logical sense, they’re often unable to stop them. Talk therapy with a mental health professional can help to provide you with tools that allow changes in thought and behavior patterns.  Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT)  and exposure and response therapy are types of talk therapy that are effective for many people. https://theanxiety.clinic/

Family Therapy Near Me

Image
  Family therapy is a form of psychotherapy that seeks to reduce distress and conflict by improving the systems of interactions between family members. While family therapists often seek to have all family members (affected by the problem) in the room, that is not always possible or necessary. What distinguishes family therapy from individual counseling is its perspective or framework, not how many people are present at the therapy session. This type of counseling views problems as patterns or systems that need adjusting, as opposed to viewing problems as residing in the person, which is why family therapy is often referred to as a “strengths based treatment.” https://theanxiety.clinic/

  TAPPING or Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or Tapping, is a powerful modality used as part of the Anxiety Release Protocol (ARP). It is a simple and effective way to lower both adrenaline and cortisol in your body thus relieving you of the symptoms associated with anxiety and panic attacks.   What is the Science? Tapping integrates Western medicine’s newfound understanding of neurological development and patterning, with Eastern medicine’s understanding of energy and the meridians in the body by which this energy travels.  Western medical studies have shown how Tapping can reduce the stress hormones adrenaline and cortisol in your body.  (Quite simply we can measure cortisol in saliva, and when we measured cortisol levels in those who had Tapped, they had reduced, often considerably!)

Mind the Gap!

Image
  At our core, we all have a small spark of knowing how successful we could be, even when we are immersed in suffering. And when we feel surrounded in suffering, we can feel powerless. You know suffering. Growing up we all learned what it was like to hurt and feel powerless. You may have been fortunate enough to receive sympathy or empathy in these painful moments. But did you receive the coaching and skills to regain that power and not suffer in response to the inevitable suffering life throws at us? When the gap between being immersed in suffering and the best of what we know life can be widened – anxiety bubbles to the surface. And anxiety only wants two things – your attention (“Hey! Look at this huge gap, it’s dangerous!”) and to help keep you safe. (“Seriously don’t just freeze run or start swinging, DO SOMETHING HELPFUL!!”) Here is where online anxiety treatment therapy helps. I can show you how to pay attention and use powerful skills to close the gap. We pay attention, do s

  Life is messy.  We suffer.  Yet it is optional to suffer in response. You have a pile of history and DNA that seems to dictate so much of how you feel, respond, and even the outcomes. There is a set of skills that you can develop that give you much more say over how you feel at any moment. It’s not just the  psychology  of how your mind works that is changeable, the biology of your brain can be changed to – and that is the science of  neuroplasticity . In online anxiety treatment therapy, we teach how to make these changes so your  brain re-wires  for happiness and not worry. There are a number of clinical names for these challenges: Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Anxiety Disorder… all with various anxiety symptoms including panic attacks or just not performing at your peak.

  WARNING! Staying Safe Online – It’s not just Social Media that Sells you Fake News There has been much discussion and research of late around how logarithms in social media can take note of what you click on and then teach the Artificial Intelligence (AI) behind the social media to feed you more of the same. AI creates a social media rabbit hole that only serves to reconfirm an original curiosity, which, at the time of your initial search, you may or may not have held as either truth or particularly relative. Beware the Man Behind the Curtain Perhaps you see a post talking about a protest or violence, and you may be simply concerned whether it is in your neighbourhood, so you click the angry icon and then on the post and comment. As you begin to read the article, perhaps it mentions something you remembered your friend saying, so you click through on that link. Maybe you share this post with your neighbour. Instantly the social media logarithms (much like “the Man Behind the Curtain”

  It’s Been a Tough Day, or a Big Win. Do You REALLY deserve that drink? With the years of prohibition happily now long gone, we now live in a society that encourages alcohol use as a social lubricant. Social Media, advertisements, and even campaigns run by our government regulated bodies glamourize alcohol. A toast at New Years, a ‘fine wine’ paired with dinner, the bachelor and bachelorette parties, and drinking games…they are normal, and even fuel bragging rights and help define our social status. In Ontario Canada, the  Liquor Control Board of Ontario  (LCBO) releases a beautifully designed recipe book with accompanying alcoholic spirits for Christmas. Owning a vineyard is an aspiration of the rich and wealthy and social media fuels drinking into every segment of our lives – including motherhood. A recent product advertised on Facebook showed flasks disguised as baby bottles for the ‘mother-on-the go.’ Another showed a complete papoose with a life-like infant doll, a straw attached
