Anxiety Treatment
Anxiety can show up in many ways—racing thoughts, physical tension, avoidance, or constant worry—and it can make even everyday situations feel overwhelming. At Counselling & Behaviour Services, we provide individualized anxiety treatment for children, teens, and adults, rooted in evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and acceptance strategies. We work with each client to understand the root of their anxiety, develop practical tools to manage it, and build confidence in facing life’s challenges. Whether anxiety is new or something you've been living with for years, our goal is to help you (or your child) feel calmer, more in control, and better equipped to thrive.
Understanding Anxiety
Anxiety can affect anyone, but how it shows up can vary significantly from person to person. At Counselling & Behaviour Services, we recognize that anxiety often coexists with other conditions such as autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, learning disabilities, and developmental or medical complexities. That’s why we provide anxiety management support that’s inclusive, neurodiversity-affirming, and adapted to each individual’s unique needs.
Our team offers services for children, teens, and adults, both in-person and virtually, within a safe, judgment-free space. Together, we’ll help you or your loved one feel more secure, confident, and in control.
Our Approach to Treating Anxiety
Our approach is rooted in evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed care. More importantly, we adapt these modalities to be accessible for individuals with autism, ADHD, intellectual or developmental disabilities, communication differences, and complex behavioural profiles.
Anxiety Treatment Unique as You
Anxiety management therapy helps individuals manage persistent worry, panic attacks, phobias, and social or separation anxiety. At Counselling & Behaviour Services, we tailor treatment to suit the client’s communication style, sensory considerations, and developmental needs.
Our team includes therapists experienced in supporting neurodivergent and disabled individuals with co-occurring anxiety. We believe that everyone deserves care that is accessible, affirming, and empowering, no matter their diagnosis or individual needs.
