Understanding
Stress
Stress is the body’s response to pressure or demands, whether from work, relationships, finances, or health. While some stress can be motivating, chronic or overwhelming stress can harm your physical and mental health.
What does stress feel like?
Stress can cause irritability, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, sleep problems, headaches, and muscle tension. Emotionally, you may feel overwhelmed, frustrated, or unable to cope with daily demands.
How to overcome stress with therapy
Therapy helps you identify sources of stress, develop practical coping strategies, and build resilience. CBT, mindfulness, and relaxation techniques are effective for managing stress. Lifestyle changes and support networks also play a key role.
Through stress counselling, you can:
Identify and manage stressors in your life
Learn relaxation and mindfulness techniques
Build problem-solving and time management skills
Improve emotional regulation and wellbeing
Step-by-step guide to managing stress
Identify stressors: Write down situations or tasks that trigger stress.
Seek support: Talk to a therapist, trusted friend, or support group.
Practise relaxation: Use deep breathing, meditation, or exercise to reduce tension.
Adopt healthy habits: Maintain sleep, nutrition, and regular activity.
Monitor progress: Track your stress levels and adjust your coping strategies.
