Stress is a normal human reaction that happens to everyone. In fact, the human body is designed to experience stress and react to it. Stress responses help the body adjust to new situations. In this way, stress can be positive, keeping us alert, motivated, and ready to avoid danger.
However, it becomes a problem when stressors continue without relief or periods of relaxation. This is when the body starts to show physiological and psychological symptoms that are difficult to manage. Some people resort into use of alcohol, or other substances, while others dissociate and avoid. Stress, when not managed, affects personal well-being and interpersonal relationships. While stress is a normal part of life, in recent decades it’s been found to have a poor impact on the mind as it gains momentum in our modern times, specifically in the form of burnout.
For this reason and many more, our team of professionals offers stress management therapy. This includes, but is not limited to: business owners, employees, individuals, couples, and families. Engaging in stress management therapy can lead to several benefits, including helping to identify and understand the sources of stress, which is vital for addressing them effectively. Therapy also provides practical tools and exercises that can be incorporated into daily routines, thereby reducing the immediate impact of stressors. Additionally, it promotes resilience, enabling individuals to handle future stressors with greater ease and confidence.
Stress management consists of a wide range of approaches to managing and reducing a person’s level of psychological stress and chronic stress. There are a multitude of physical and mental symptoms of stress that are addressed in this form of therapy. The general purpose of stress management is to improve one’s ability to function in everyday life.
There are numerous ways to approach managing stress since there are many known types of stress, such as in the workplace or at home. That’s why our team tailors each client’s therapy plan to meet their individual needs. For example, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on modifying negative thought patterns, which contribute to stress. Or there’s mindfulness-based therapy (MBT), which emphasizes fully engaging with life in the present moment, which can significantly reduce anxiety and stress levels. In addition, techniques commonly used to promote physical and mental relaxation include deep breathing exercises, progressive muscle relaxation, and guided imagery.
Our stress management therapy can help clients identify their needs and inspire them to achieve their desired goals and thrive in their professional and personal lives. Whichever form of stress is interfering with living the best life possible, we are here to ensure support is given at every step of the way. Get in touch with us today and recover the ability to function in daily life.
