Stress Management Therapy
Stress is part of everyday and comes and goes on a regular basis. Stress is how our body responds to pressure. A variety of situations or life events can cause stress. It tends to trigger when we are experiencing something new or unexpected, when we feel something threatens our sense of self, or when we feel we have little or no control over a given situation. Everyone deals with stress in a different way.
Life is full of demands from day to day living. It is fairly commong to feel “stressed”. In small amounts stress can be a good thing, for instance it may help us plan, motivate us to work hard and even alert us to potential dangers around us. However, at other times it may find it difficult to ignore your stress and you may end up feeling overwhelmed. If you find yourself frequently saying “I feel stressed out” or you are experiencing high levels of stress, when it is affecting your functioning in areas such as work, school, family and social relations, it may be time to speak with a psychologist.
