Virtual & In-Person Therapy for Anxiety in Ontario
Anxiety can affect how you think, feel, connect with others, and move through everyday life. Our trauma-informed therapists provide compassionate anxiety counselling in Ontario to help you better understand what you’re experiencing and develop tools to navigate anxiety with greater confidence.
Therapy is available in person in London, Toronto and Barrie, and virtually across Ontario.
Anxiety therapy that meets you where you are
Trouble sleeping, panic, physical tension, or a constant feeling that something is wrong can all be signs of anxiety. You may also find yourself avoiding situations, overthinking decisions, or struggling to switch off.
Anxiety counselling can give you a supportive space to explore what’s underneath these experiences and understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
Our therapists use trauma-informed approaches to help you build a deeper understanding of yourself while developing practical ways to cope with anxiety.

Who is anxiety counselling for?
Adults experiencing anxiety
Therapy can help you understand persistent worry, stress, avoidance, and other anxiety symptoms while developing strategies that work for your life.
Children and youth
Anxiety can show up differently in children and teens. A therapist can provide an age-appropriate, supportive environment to help them understand and navigate difficult emotions.
Couples and families
Anxiety can affect relationships and family dynamics. Counselling can help you communicate more effectively and understand how anxiety may be affecting your relationships.
Our approach to anxiety therapy
At Gibson & Associates, we take a trauma-informed and person-centred approach to anxiety counselling. Rather than treating anxiety as something you simply need to get rid of, therapy can help you understand what your anxiety may be communicating and where these patterns come from.
Depending on your needs, your therapist may draw from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, somatic approaches, and other evidence-informed therapeutic modalities.
Your therapist will work collaboratively with you to determine what approach feels appropriate for your goals and needs.
