Have you ever found that it is hard to sleep because your mind will not slow down? Do you ever wish that your mind could find calmness during the day? Is there a teenager in your life who is stressed and would benefit from some mental relaxation? Even when we are happy our thoughts just keep on going. When we have stress and anxiety, this is even more true. Guided relaxation allows your body and your mind to work together and achieve calm and peace. Our bodies and minds lear...ning to experience relaxation together can help lower anxiety and improve overall mood. Because it is a guided exercise, all the listener has to do is sit and focus on the recording! I’m happy to share with you these two guided relaxation exercises! The first one is for use during the day when you want to end feeling alert and refreshed. You can find it at https://hhcw.ca/feel-better-everyday-guided-relaxation/. The second is an extended version that can be used at bed time or any other part of the day that requires a longer period of calm. It can be found at https://hhcw.ca/feel-better-guided-relaxation-with-an-exte/. Helping my patients better understand the connection between their minds and bodies is an important part of my practice. Teenagers and adolescents can use this to find time away from their technology as way to combat online and video game addiction.

As a teen and child therapist, one of my roles is to help people find more effective ways to communicate. Miscommunication can lead to anxiety and depression, and is often caused by the overuse of texting. Check out my latest article and video to learn more about how to improve your communication with others.

Sometimes when we feel alone and down it helps to take a step back, look around and see that we are surrounded by people who care. We might even offer some colour to them when they feel lost in the crowd.

I'm thrilled to announce that effective immediately I am going to be supporting Everyday Heroes Kids with the goal of simplifying access to care for all children.
