Anxiety Therapy in Edmonton & St. Albert

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck in worry or caught off guard by panic? You're not alone, and help is available. Anxiety is one of the most common reasons people come to ReFocus You, and it is very treatable.

Signs you may benefit from support

Constant worry or racing thoughts you can't switch off
Feeling tense, restless or on edge most of the time
Panic attacks: a racing heart, shortness of breath or a sense of dread
Avoiding people, places or tasks because of fear
Trouble sleeping or concentrating
Physical symptoms such as headaches, stomach upset or muscle tension

How therapy at ReFocus You helps

Your therapist will help you understand what is driving your anxiety and give you practical tools to manage it. Depending on your needs, therapy may include:

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to notice anxious thinking patterns and respond to them differently
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to make room for difficult feelings while moving toward what matters to you
Exposure-based strategies to gradually and safely face the situations you've been avoiding
EMDR when anxiety is connected to past difficult or traumatic experiences
Grounding and nervous-system regulation skills you can use in the moment

We work with children, teens and adults, and we can involve parents or partners when that helps.

Frequently asked questions

How long does anxiety therapy take?

It varies. Some people feel noticeably better within 6 to 10 sessions; others choose longer-term work, especially when anxiety is tied to past experiences. Your therapist will review progress with you regularly.

Can therapy help with panic attacks?

Yes. Therapy can help you understand what happens in your body during a panic attack, reduce the fear of having another one, and learn skills to calm your system.
