Being stressed is a natural part of living. Sometimes stress motivates us and helps us be more creative. At other times, stress makes us feel pressured and closes off our capacity to adapt. Overcoming stress involves learning to regulate one's emotions and alter one's attitudes and thinking styles. Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy is very effective at transforming stress so that it begins to work for you.
Mental health support for physical illness, pain and uncertainty. We know that anxiety, depression and chronic stress often occur in tandem with or as a result of physical illness but can be overlooked or we may fear addressing these mental health challenges directly. Managing symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, pain and others alongside of coordinating appointments, medications, treatments can feel overwhelming and isolating. It can be difficult to figure out how we can realistically fit in our needs while juggling the other demands and priorities we have.
