Stress Management Counseling Services

Counseling for stress management will help you learn how to decompress and reconnect with others and yourself.

Often, people underestimate the impact of constant stress. Taking time for yourself when you are already feeling stretched to the max may feel counterproductive but learning to manage your stress and care for yourself is critical to ensuring you can continue tackling all the other commitments in your life.

Taking time to learn how to manage your stress can help to avoid exhaustion and burnout. Managing stress even helps prevent physical illness.

We’ll help you see the impact of taking time to rest. Doing so can help you feel renewed and better able to respond to the barrage of tasks always at hand.

We understand that everyone handles stress differently

How we’ll use the strength-based approach to help you form techniques for managing stress in all aspects of life:

  • Focusing on internal strengths and resources and less on weaknesses or shortcomings to make changing behaviors and improving your life easier.
  • Defining sources of stress that have had both long-term and short-term impacts. By identifying your strengths, we’ll develop ways to deal with those stressors.
  • Empowering you to develop productive ways to cope with work, school and in other settings where stress can appear.
  • Learning to develop realistic habits that will help you take care of yourself physically, socially, and emotionally.
  • Restoring balance and setting intentions for personal growth.
What to expect from counseling for stress management

We create a unique counseling process that is tailored to each person’s strengths and experiences.

Counseling is meant to be a time of self-exploration and growth. Your clinician will tailor treatment to your specific needs based on your goals and what you would like to achieve. Counseling has the potential to be short-term or long-term based on your individual needs.

Sustained progress can be made in as few as 8 weekly sessions, but most people find that they need treatment for a minimum of several months. We encourage you to attend weekly sessions, as this allows you to establish a close working relationship with your clinician and to make progress more quickly. Our hope is for you to reach your goals sooner rather than later so that you can live the life you desire.

Working together, we will help you restore balance and set intentions for personal growth.
