Do or Did You Feel Anxious Today?
Maybe it started the moment you woke up, or it crept in as the day went on. That uneasy feeling, the tension in your body, the restlessness you can’t shake. Anxiety has a way of showing up uninvited, making it hard to focus, breathe, or just feel at ease.
Emotionally and Physically, Anxiety Can Feel Like:
Emotionally
• A constant loop of overthinking and second-guessing
• Restless nights, racing thoughts that won’t stop
• Feeling disconnected, drained, and unmotivated
• Small tasks feeling overwhelming and unmanageable
• A deep sense of worry, fear, or dread
Physically
• A racing heart, tight chest, or shortness of breath
• Headaches, muscle tension, or stomach issues
• Feeling lightheaded, dizzy, or shaky
• Restlessness, irritability, or difficulty concentrating
• Constant fatigue, even after sleep
Did you know that 1 in 4 Canadians will experience an anxiety disorder in their lifetime?
And yet, so many suffer in silence, believing they just have to "deal with it." 😰
Anxiety doesn’t just appear out of nowhere—it often has deep roots. It can stem from past trauma, stress, perfectionism, relationship struggles, or even genetics.
Without help, it can take over your life, leaving you feeling stuck, unmotivated, and disconnected from the things that once brought you joy.

We Are Here to Listen
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)
Constant worry that's hard to control, affecting work, relationships, and daily life. You may feel restless, irritable, or exhausted from overthinking. Our therapists use CBT and mindfulness to help you break the worry cycle and build lasting calm.Panic attacks and panic disorder
Sudden surges of intense fear, racing heart, chest tightness, dizziness, or a sense of losing control. Panic attacks can feel terrifying — even when there's no real danger. Therapy helps you understand what triggers them and gives you tools to reduce their frequency and intensity.Social anxiety
Fear of being judged, embarrassed, or rejected in social situations — at work, in groups, or in everyday interactions. Social anxiety can lead to avoidance that shrinks your world over time. We help you rebuild confidence and engage with others on your own terms.Health anxiety
Persistent worry about having a serious illness, misinterpreting normal body sensations as symptoms of disease. Health anxiety is exhausting and can lead to compulsive checking or avoidance of medical information. Therapy helps you develop a healthier relationship with uncertainty.Trauma-related anxiety and PTSD
Anxiety rooted in past traumatic experiences — accidents, loss, abuse, or overwhelming life events. Symptoms include hypervigilance, flashbacks, emotional numbness, and difficulty feeling safe. Our trauma-informed therapists create a safe, paced environment for healing.Work and burnout anxiety
Anxiety driven by workplace pressure, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, or chronic overwork. Burnout anxiety often appears as exhaustion paired with inability to switch off. Therapy helps you identify unsustainable patterns and rebuild healthy boundaries at work.Anxiety in children and teens
Children as young as 6 and teenagers can experience anxiety that affects school performance, friendships, and family relationships. Signs include school refusal, separation anxiety, excessive worry, irritability, and sleep problems. Justine Maurice and Lydia Kellar specialize in child and youth anxiety using play-based, trauma-informed approaches.💙 No waitlists. No pressure. Just a conversation to start feeling better.

Does insurance cover anxiety therapy in Ontario?
Most extended health benefit plans in Ontario cover registered psychotherapy and social work services.
Anytime Anywhere Therapy's receipts include each therapist's Ontario registration number — everything your insurance provider needs to process reimbursement.
Before your first session, call your benefits provider and ask: "Do I have coverage for a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) or Registered Social Worker (RSW)?" Most Sun Life, Manulife, Great-West Life, Blue Cross, and Green Shield plans include this coverage.
If your plan does not cover therapy, keep your receipts. Psychotherapy expenses are eligible as medical expenses when filing your personal income tax return in Canada. OHIP does not cover registered psychotherapist sessions.
However, OHIP-funded options exist through your family doctor or community mental health centres if cost is a significant barrier. No HST is charged on any of our sessions.

Yes, we do.
All of our therapists are registered with recognized regulatory bodies, such as the CRPO (College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario), which are recognized by insurance companies. Our receipts include the therapist's registration number, which you can use to receive reimbursement from your insurer. However, not all insurance benefit programs cover therapy expenses. We recommend contacting your insurance provider prior to your session to confirm if services provided by a registered psychotherapist are covered and eligible for reimbursement.
After your session, you'll receive a receipt with all the necessary details to submit to your insurer. If you're not reimbursed, keep your receipts, as therapy expenses can be claimed as medical expenses for tax deductions when filing your personal income taxes.
