Thriveworks offers Stress management therapy, a type of therapy that helps people learn how to effectively manage and release their stress through the use of relaxation techniques, time-management practices, and mindfulness, among others. Relieving stress can greatly improve an individual’s mental health, as stress can detrimentally affect one’s emotional and physical well-being.
Stress management therapy functions by identifying the source(s) of stress and the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that are tied to it, then addressing them and creating healthy strategies for dealing with stress on a long-term basis. Additionally, Stress management therapy also helps people discover what warning signs they have that can let them know that they are stressed so that they can be more proactive in managing it.
The effectiveness of stress management therapy can vary from person to person, but some widely used and effective approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and relaxation techniques.

Whether to seek therapy for stress depends on the severity and impact of the stress on your life. If stress is significantly affecting your well-being, relationships, or daily functioning, therapy can be a helpful option to learn coping strategies and gain support. It’s important to assess your own needs and consult a mental health professional for guidance on whether therapy is appropriate for your situation.

Stress is a normal, expected part of life. We all have varying levels of stress and responsibility. At times, it may seem like the amount we have to do can never get done in the time allotted. Or perhaps your goals keep getting derailed because of one setback or another. If you are struggling to manage stress and could use some support, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Birmingham. We offer evening and weekend sessions, and we accept most major insurances. We’re here to help.
Maybe you are caring for children, teenagers, a spouse, and an aging parent. There just never seems to be enough time for yourself. There are many different ways that individuals attempt to “destress.” A long bath, watching your favorite television program, exercise; these are just some of the healthy ways that people can lessen their stress. Alternatively, sometimes those under stress develop very unhealthy ways of coping. These can include overeating, substance abuse, or just generally ruining relationships because of feeling overwhelmed and unable to deal with daily stressors. Those under stress often become short tempered, easily angered, and distant from loved ones.
