Stress Management consists of a wide spectrum of techniques and psychotherapies aimed at controlling a person’s level of stress, especially chronic stress, usually for the purpose of improving everyday functioning.
Feeling stressed and burned out?
- Do you struggle to find balance in your life?
- Are you sleep-deprived and overwhelmed?
- Do you constantly feel fatigued?
- Is it hard for you to relax and stay present?
- Are you trying to juggle everything but not getting anything done?
- Do others and their needs always come first, leaving you with little time for yourself?
Many people grapple with managing their stress, and seeking help can feel even more stressful. Stress is an unavoidable and natural part of life. It’s the physiological and neurological process that helps you deal with threats and underlies emotions like worry, anxiety, fear, terror, anger, irritation, annoyance, frustration, and rage.
There is a difference between your stressors and the stress you experience. Stressors are the things that trigger your stress response—work, family, school, etc. Stress is the system of changes activated in your brain and body in response to those stressors.
In life, there is both good stress and bad stress, determined by how you perceive or interpret a stressor. In therapy, you can learn tools and strategies to make the necessary changes in your life to create a more balanced and happier existence.
