Stress & Feeling Overwhelmed

The accumulation of stress, pressure, worry, or responsibility can take a significant toll on both physical and psychological well-being. Everyday life pressures, major life events, and periods of change can contribute to overwhelming feelings that seem insurmountable.

In recent times, our therapists have observed a surge in referrals for personal and professional burnout, exacerbated by the challenges of adapting to life after lockdowns and the ongoing effects of the pandemic. These stressors, combined with experiences of loss and disruption, have created a perfect storm of overwhelming emotions for many individuals.

Even low-level stress, when prolonged, can manifest in detrimental effects on the body, including sleep disturbances, digestive issues, chronic illness, heart problems, and compromised immune health. Emotionally, you may find yourself feeling overwhelmed, angry, dissociated, or emotionally numb.

Our therapists offer a supportive space to slow down, increase emotional safety, and delve into the underlying factors contributing to your feelings of overwhelm. Together, you and your therapist can explore strategies to manage stress, express intense emotions in a healthy way, and make meaningful changes in your life to foster greater well-being and resilience.
