What is the goal of counseling for stress?

Stress can feel like a heavy, invisible backpack full of obligations and worries. It's exhausting, and it can be difficult to move forward. The goal of counseling isn't to get rid of the backpack immediately. It's to help you gently unpack it, one item at a time, so you can feel lighter and more confident. We believe you have the power to live a life that is full and rewarding, and we are here to help you get there.

How can a counselor help me with my stress?

Sometimes, a counselor is like a personal trainer for your mind. We'll help you get to the root of your stress, so you can stop living in a state of high alert. We'll give you a new toolkit of strategies, from mindfulness to relaxation techniques, so you can learn to calm your nervous system. You can take control of your emotions and live a life that is not controlled by stress.

What are some common challenges with stress?

Stress is a natural part of life, but when it becomes overwhelming, it can feel like a constant, noisy chatter in your mind. You may struggle with a lack of sleep, a lack of focus, or a feeling of being overwhelmed. It's a lot to handle, and it's completely normal to feel this way. We'll provide a safe space for you to process your emotions without judgment. We believe in your capacity to live a life that is full and rewarding.

What's the difference between good stress and bad stress?

Good stress, or "eustress," is like a healthy motivator that helps you get things done, like the feeling you get before a big presentation or a first date. Bad stress, or "distress," is a negative force that can have a significant impact on your mental and physical health. It's when the stress feels out of control and you're constantly living in a state of high alert. We can work together to help you find a new way to live.
