Discover how starting stress management therapy can support your own journey toward a happier, more fulfilling life.
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.
Five stress management counseling strategies include:
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.
Yes, stress management counseling can help significantly reduce the amount of anxiety that you feel.
Stress management treatment at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
For those with low amounts of anxiety and stress and simple goals, stress management therapy can be fewer than 12 sessions. However, for those with intense anxiety and more severe symptoms, therapy will likely last longer in order to effectively treat their stress and mitigate their symptoms.
Everyone has those days where one more thing will cause a breakdown. But what if that day was all the time? Maybe your stress has been so high and constant for so long that you hardly notice the stress part anymore, just the unhealthy coping mechanisms you’ve adapted.
Healthily managed stress can be positive, but unmanaged stress is the biggest killer in the US! So, what can we do with such a precarious balance? How do we stay in the safe zone with so many stress points around us? Thriveworks Columbus counselors have years of experience working with stress and can teach and walk beside you as you learn your own stress levels and best strategies for managing it. Reach out today to get started.
Thriveworks Columbus wants you to know that the emotions and behaviors you’re experiencing are completely valid. Anything can cause stress: money, relationships, or life changes are a few examples. Unmanaged stress hardly looks like stress. Some signs of it include:
Stress doesn’t have to control you anymore. With a little professional help, you can get the peace you deserve.
Sometimes, people will try to change their circumstances to get rid of stress. Changing circumstances can be a vital part of stress management. However, stress will always find a way to come back. You could be chasing stress out of your life for the rest of your life! To fully have control of your stress, you have to change, not just your environment.
Some ways we can do this include:
