Anxiety Therapy
Constant worry, panic attacks, or a mind that won’t shut off? Anxiety can be debilitating, but you don’t have to face it alone. At CPC Clinics in Calgary, we understand how anxiety steals your peace, whether it’s persistent tension at work, social anxiety in gatherings, or sudden panic on the Deerfoot Trail. Our empathetic therapists are here to help you find relief and confidence. Through evidence-based techniques and genuine support, we guide you step by step toward a calmer mind and a more balanced life.
Our anxiety treatment program in Calgary is personalized to your needs and include:
- Comprehensive Assessment: We begin by understanding your anxiety profile , triggers, symptoms (physical and emotional), and personal history. This ensures your therapist targets the right factors, from generalized anxiety to phobias or panic episodes.
- Cognitive Restructuring: Learn to identify and challenge the negative thought patterns (“What if I embarrass myself?”) that fuel your anxiety. We teach you how to replace catastrophic thinking with balanced, realistic thoughts, reducing fear at its source.
- Coping Skills Training: You’ll practice practical strategies to manage anxiety symptoms in the moment. These include deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, grounding techniques, and other quick tools to calm racing heart and mind.
- Exposure Therapy (Gradual Desensitization): For specific fears or panic triggers, we use gentle exposure exercises. With your consent and at your pace, you confront fears in small, controlled steps , proving to your brain that you can handle them. This approach is highly effective for phobias and social anxiety.
- Mindfulness & Lifestyle: Beyond therapy sessions, we integrate stress-reduction habits into your routine. Mindfulness meditation, regular exercise, and sleep hygiene are encouraged. Our therapists may also work with you on diet and time management tweaks that can lower overall anxiety levels.
Depression Therapy
Feeling hopeless, drained, or stuck in darkness? Depression can make the simplest tasks feel impossible, but with the right help, things can get better. At CPC Clinics in Calgary, we provide empathetic, effective therapy for depression. We know depression isn’t just “sadness”, it can be exhaustion, irritability, numbness, or feeling nothing at all. Our experienced therapists will meet you with compassion and practical strategies to lift the weight of depression. You don’t have to struggle alone. Our approach to treating depression is holistic and tailored to you, often including:
- Personalized Assessment: We start by understanding your depression , its severity, duration, and how it impacts your daily life. You might complete a simple questionnaire (like PHQ-9) to gauge your symptom level. We also explore any contributing factors (stress, past trauma, health issues) and your strengths. This full picture helps shape a treatment plan that targets the root causes of your depression.
- Supportive Talk Therapy: Sometimes, what you need first is a safe, non-judgmental space to unload what’s on your mind. Our Calgary therapists provide just that. Simply talking about your feelings , the numb mornings, the self-critical thoughts, the overwhelm , can bring relief and make you feel less alone. We offer empathy and understanding, validating that depression is real and hard, not a personal weakness.
- Cognitive Behavioral Techniques: We teach you how to recognize the negative thought patterns fueling your depression. For example, depression might tell you “I’m a failure” or “nothing will ever improve.” In therapy, we fact-check those thoughts and practice generating more balanced, kinder ones. Over time, changing this inner narrative can lighten your mood and improve self-esteem.
- Behavioral Activation: Depression often causes paralysis , you stop doing activities you once enjoyed or neglect daily tasks. We help you gently rebuild a routine that includes positive activities, even when you don’t feel like it. This might mean scheduling a short walk in Fish Creek Park, 5 minutes of journaling in the morning, or re-engaging with a hobby like painting or playing guitar. Small actions can break the cycle of inertia and start improving your mood.
- Skill-Building for Coping: You’ll learn strategies to handle tough moments. This could include emotion regulation skills from DBT (to navigate waves of sadness or anger safely), problem-solving techniques for stressful situations (like handling work conflicts or financial worries that worsen depression), and relaxation practices to reduce tension and improve sleep. Our goal is to equip you with a toolbox for life , so you can manage future lows more effectively.
Chronic Illness & Chronic Pain Therapy
Living with chronic pain or a long-term health condition can change everything including energy, sleep, work, and family rhythms. On hard days, flares, fatigue, and appointments can make life feel small. You don’t have to manage this alone. At CPC Clinics in Calgary, we use evidence-based tools to help you pace, cope, and reconnect with what matters and at a speed that respects your body and your life here. We blend practical skills with compassionate pacing so you can rebuild function and confidence.
Bipolar I & II Therapy
Bipolar experiences can include hypomania or mania, depression, and mixed features that disrupt sleep, focus, and daily rhythms. You might notice bursts of ideas and activity, then stretches of heavy fatigue, worry, or irritability that strain work, school, and relationships. Therapy offers a consistent place to understand patterns, strengthen routines, and learn practical skills that help you navigate episodes more safely. At CPC Clinics in Calgary, Zarrin provides bipolar-informed care grounded in evidence and collaboration with your medical team when helpful. Together, we’ll set clear goals and pace change in manageable steps.
