It is easy to get overwhelmed and thrown out of balance in our current world. As we attempt to cope, we may often fall back on maladaptive coping mechanisms that result in temporary relief. However, maladaptive behaviours can have serious consequences. For instance, if you are unable to overcome your frustration using a healthy adaptation, you may resort to overeating and overdrinking. My goal is to help you bring balance back to your life and teach you how to recover from any emotional dysregulation and give you the tools for improved resiliency.
