The Healing Power of Holistic Therapy
Is anxiety or ADHD derailing your life? Do you wonder if your teen child has ADHD?
Holistic House Psychological Services in Calgary, Alberta, offers compassionate care to support mental wellness, with effective evidence-based therapy that goes beyond conventional treatments.
Manage and Reduce Anxiety Symptoms
Perhaps you’ve already been diagnosed with anxiety. Or you struggle with these symptoms, which could indicate an anxiety disorder:
Feelings of nervousness, tension, agitation, or restlessness
Panic attacks or worries about impending doom or danger
Sweating, rapid breathing, trembling, and loss of muscle control
Difficulty managing worries or staying focused at work or school
Insomnia, trouble falling asleep, or difficulty staying asleep
Avoidance of social activities or those that provoke anxiety symptoms
Traditionally, treatment for anxiety has involved a trial-and-error approach focused on pharmaceutical management of symptoms. But not everyone experiences long-term response or remission with these methods. And drug-based therapy may not be for everybody.
That’s why Holistic House provides a gentler but equally effective alternative that uses research-based non-pharmaceutical techniques. The therapeutic approaches below are used among other methods, following client assessment and a one-on-one discussion of all options:
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Cognitive Processing Therapy/Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CPT/CBT)
These safe and well-studied treatment methods yield great results with anxiety, depression, and trauma, on their own or in conjunction with medication. Even better, they encourage personal growth and empowerment, so you can go beyond just managing symptoms to moving forward and reaching life goals.
Assess and Treat ADHD
Undiagnosed ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder) can have negative lifelong effects on people of all ages. It can make it difficult to follow through with school assignments or achieve career advancement in the workplace. And it often sabotages personal, professional, and financial relationships.
Most people are well acquainted with the typical calling cards of ADHD, like behaviour issues at school, hyperactivity, impulsivity, forgetfulness, and challenges concentrating. But there are other less common symptoms, such as procrastination, trouble regulating emotions, and even fatigue, as the brain struggles with mental exhaustion and what psychologists call cognitive overload.
So it’s helpful for anyone who may have ADHD to undergo a proper comprehensive evaluation like the one provided by Holistic House for youths and adults — including those in their 40s, 50s, and 60s.
Everyone’s symptoms and challenges with ADHD are unique. A cookie-cutter approach will therefore not work equally well for all. Following a clear diagnostic report, clients at Holistic House receive individualized guidance on treatment options and clear next steps.
Enjoy a Refreshing Person-Centered Approach
Personalized treatment plans and collaborative support are at the heart of the Holistic House approach. There, you will find a compassionate, non-judgmental environment that makes both patients and parents feel safe and welcome and not merely a number to be managed by an algorithm to meet metrics.
Holistic House values long-term partnerships with clients and families, as well as a deep understanding of parental challenges when it comes to anxiety and treating ADHD. And you’ll appreciate the option of in-person or online sessions for convenience with today’s busy schedules.
