There’s no doubt that the demands and pressures of modern life are a common theme in leading people to feel overwhelmed, depleted, and zapped of energy.
Stress can be caused by many things, including financial pressures, family responsibilities, work expectations, lifestyle choices and feeling like there is too much to do with limited time.
Not all stress is bad. In little bursts, it can be motivational and propel us towards action. However, when it becomes chronic or reaches high levels without reprieve, it can cause major problems in all areas of a person’s life. Coping styles, thought patterns and belief systems, sleep hygiene, diet and physical activity are all factors that can exacerbate and prolong stress.
At Kokoro Psychology & Health, we can help you identify, manage, and reduce your stress through a number of evidence-based approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping), schema therapy, relaxation and mindfulness techniques, and solutions-focussed counselling.
