An Integrative Approach to Self- Care: Psychotherapy


Stress - everyone has it.  Whether it is managing the details of happy events, handling day to day tasks, experiencing relationship difficulties or dealing with loss or trauma, stress can have a profound impact on the way people feel and experience life.  Often people tell themselves that stress is a part of life, so they should just be strong and carry on. The reality is that everyone needs support at one time or another and psychotherapy can be a wonderful resource for individuals wanting to reduce the stress in their lives. A psychotherapist offers a safe and confidential place to explore your thoughts and feelings. Through this relationship, you will have the opportunity to identify and understand the stressors in your life, identify negative thinking patterns that may contribute to your stress, develop positive communication skills to improve relationships and reduce conflicts, develop coping skills which can strengthen your resiliency, and learn to prioritize yourself while you develop self-care and stress management techniques
