Stress
Are you overwhelmed by stress?
Maybe you’re dealing with problems in your marriage. Maybe work places demands on you that you feel are impossible, and you’re torn by the fact that you can’t quit. Maybe you’re a new parent and all of the challenges no one told you about are getting to you. Or maybe there’s something else going on that you just can’t handle but you can’t escape it either.
No matter what the specifics are, you feel stressed. Your stress seems to be worse that everyone else’s, and you’re seeing it affect other parts of your life:
- You’re irritable all the time
- You don’t sleep or eat like you used to
- You don’t feel relaxed after doing fun things
- You don’t have the energy for other people like you want to
- Venting doesn’t help but you still need to talk about it
Therapy will help you...
- Figure out why this is happening
- Identify what you can control and change that
- Learn how to be less affected by what you can’t control
- Feel less intensity from your stress, even if you can’t stop it
- Improve your relationships and daily functioning
You don't have to be weighed down anymore.
Reach out and I’ll work with you to get through this, focusing directly on you and your needs.
We’ll figure out exactly what’s going on and the best way to work through it so it stops controlling your life. Together we’ll set up a plan for the future and you’ll learn ways to tackle your stress and take control of it.
I base my approach to stress on evidence-based models that focus on you, like Motivational Interviewing (MI), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), and psychodynamic talk therapy. That means you become your own therapist once we finish, confidently able to handle things on your own.
