Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for stress, including feeling overwhelmed, emotionally overloaded, burnt out, or unable to switch off. Stress can show up in many ways, such as constant mental pressure, irritability, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, sleep disruption, or a sense of always being “on edge” and unable to fully relax.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, offering a reflective and non-judgemental space to explore both current pressures and the underlying emotional patterns that may contribute to stress. Together, we may look at how early relational experiences, attachment patterns, and internal expectations can shape how you respond to demands, boundaries, and self-care.
I work in a trauma-informed way, recognising that chronic stress is often linked not only to external pressures, but also to deeper emotional dynamics such as perfectionism, people-pleasing, anxiety, or difficulty recognising personal limits. Therapy can support you in understanding these patterns and developing more sustainable ways of relating to yourself and others.
I also integrate somatic awareness to help you notice how stress is held in the body, such as tension, restlessness, or fatigue, supporting greater regulation and grounding. Psychoeducation may be used to deepen understanding of stress responses, and where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional release and nervous system calming.
Therapy is collaborative and paced according to your needs, helping you develop greater resilience, balance, and capacity to manage life’s demands with more ease and self-compassion.

Alison Edwards Therapy & Supervision
Psychologist, CBT Therapist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc
I provide Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for stress/ burnout, and for clients who feel overwhelmed with life events and long-term stresses or anxiety. Many clients are actually experiencing mild depression. CBT is the recommended psychological therapy for general anxiety, depression, panic attacks, agoraphobia, social anxiety/ social phobia, and Generalised Anxiety Disorder*. I can also provide CBT for traumas and PTSD. During my professional qualification I chose to specialise in panic attacks and agoraphobia for my research and dissertation. (*GAD also known as chronic neurosis is excessive and persistent worrying about several areas of your life, worry that is out of proportion with the situation and interfering with day-to-day life, a feeling of not being able to control worrying, and difficulties around overthinking and planning for potential problems that have not occurred.)

Irene Valis
Registered Psychotherapist, PACFA certified Gestalt therapist, Counsellor, Life Coach
Stress can be an overwhelming experience where everything feels urgent, too much or not enough. It can play out in relationships, in home life, workplaces, or even in communities and the collective at large; and can have a significant effect on our mind, body, and health.
Stress is a sign our nervous system is going into survival mode, and support is needed to move into taking action and finding solutions.
To do that, we together take a personalised approach to slowing down, identifying your subjective stressors (people, places, patterns), understanding what's happening for you on a nervous system level in response to stress, and then exploring optimal regulation tools and resources tailored for your specific needs - helping you build more capacity and greater resilience for navigating these areas your life.

Dr. Antonio D'Costa
Registered Psychotherapist, M.B.B.S, M.D. (Paediatrics)
I specialize in pediatric medicine and trauma-focused therapy using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). My work centers on supporting children, adolescents, and adults through grief, anxiety, behavioral challenges, and the lingering effects of difficult experiences.
As a pediatrician, I've seen how unprocessed trauma shows up in young lives- through sleep troubles, feeding issues, social withdrawal, and emotional struggles. EMDR offers a gentle, research-backed path to healing that goes beyond words.
With EMDRIA-approved training and my pediatric experience, I help families navigate some of their most challenging moments. Whether it's a child struggling with grief, an adolescent facing anxiety, or an adult working through long-held wounds, my approach blends medical expertise with compassionate, evidence-based care.
I'm passionate about making mental health support accessible- offering teletherapy across India and internationally, with subsidized sessions available for those who need them.
Let's connect if you're looking for trauma-informed support, professional collaboration, or referrals for children and families in need.

How Therapy Can Help with Stress -
We all experience stress—it's a normal part of life. But when stress becomes chronic or overwhelming, it stops being a motivator and starts taking a serious toll on your mental and physical health. If you're feeling constantly on edge, exhausted, or like you're barely keeping your head above water, therapy can help you find your way back to balance.
What Chronic Stress Looks Like
Stress isn't just feeling busy or having a lot on your plate. Chronic stress can show up as:
Constant worry or racing thoughts
Difficulty sleeping or always feeling tired
Physical symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, or stomach issues
Irritability or mood swings
Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
Feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks
Loss of enjoyment in things you used to love
Using unhealthy coping mechanisms (overworking, overeating, drinking, withdrawing)
When stress becomes your baseline, it's easy to forget what calm actually feels like.
How Therapy Helps
Understanding Your Stress Triggers
Therapy helps you identify what's actually driving your stress. Sometimes it's obvious—work deadlines, financial pressure, relationship problems. Other times, stress comes from deeper sources like perfectionism, fear of failure, unresolved trauma, or difficulty saying no. Understanding the root causes is the first step toward managing them.
Learning Practical Coping Skills
Your therapist can teach you concrete techniques for managing stress in the moment, such as:
Breathing exercises and grounding techniques
Progressive muscle relaxation
Mindfulness and meditation practices
Time management and prioritization strategies
Healthy ways to decompress and recharge
These aren't just abstract ideas—they're tools you can use right away when stress starts building.
Challenging Unhelpful Thought Patterns
Stress often comes with distorted thinking: catastrophizing ("everything's going to fall apart"), all-or-nothing thinking ("I have to be perfect or I'm a failure"), or mind-reading ("everyone thinks I'm incompetent"). Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps you recognize these patterns and develop more balanced, realistic perspectives that reduce stress.
Setting Boundaries and Saying No
Many people experience chronic stress because they've taken on too much—at work, in relationships, or with family obligations. Therapy helps you examine why you struggle to set limits, practice saying no without guilt, and establish boundaries that protect your wellbeing.
Processing Underlying Issues
Sometimes stress is a symptom of deeper issues—unresolved trauma, unprocessed grief, relationship problems, or major life transitions. Therapy provides space to address these underlying concerns, which can significantly reduce your overall stress levels.
Breaking the Stress Cycle
Stress often creates a vicious cycle: you're stressed, so you sleep poorly, which makes you more irritable, which strains your relationships, which increases your stress. Therapy helps you identify where you can interrupt this cycle and develop healthier patterns.

Tamzin Brain @HypnoChange4U
Counsellor/Therapist, Ad.Dip.CP, DipHyp CS, Dip CP, MNCS (Acc), MHS, Counselling Cert, CACHE3, B.A. Honours Degree PsyCrim
“When I first visited Tamzin for hypnotherapy every day at work was really stressful for me. I felt anxious and on edge most of the time, as if I couldn't get things done fast enough or meet my deadlines no matter how hard I tried! Since the sessions with Tamzin I have found it much easier to put things in perspective, relax and leave things work-related at work when I come home at the end of the day. Her advice and supplementary techniques for dealing with stressful situations when they arise have also been invaluable. Thank you Tamzin!" (Amelia Blackmoore)

Anjali P.
Registered Psychotherapist, MA in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling, Registered Member MBACP- 408062
Stress is often spoken about as though it is simply a time-management problem, but many people find that it runs much deeper. You may feel constantly responsible for others, struggle to switch off, hold yourself to impossibly high standards, or find yourself carrying more than feels manageable. Over time, this can lead to exhaustion, anxiety, irritability, emotional overwhelm, or a sense of losing touch with yourself. Therapy can help you understand the patterns, expectations, and pressures contributing to your stress, while developing more sustainable ways of caring for yourself and responding to life's demands.

Adima Hawkes
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
Stress is one of, if not the main, reasons for disease of body and mind. It can be addressed in online sessions, and also very effectively in-person with the body energy work of Tibetan Pulsing. First one needs to sort out and clearly see and acknowledge one's stress patterns and drivers. This is a great place for an (online) Iridology session - the eye-reading of Tibetan Pulsing. When possible, it can be followed by the Tibetan Pulsing body energy work, which is very effective for balancing stress patterns. Regulating stress is possible! The price it's asking is loss of control. Are you ready?!

Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Professional burnout, post-traumatic stress, interpersonal conflict - these are different examples of stressful experiences that can be of chronic and incredibly taxing nature. Some people lack a robust capacity to know their own limits and set boundaries; others find themselves in the midst of stressful life events (e.g. sudden illness of self or a loved one; loss of income and basic security; being subjected to discrimination, or any other form of maltreatment), and it becomes really hard to adapt and cope emotionally.
I offer a confidential space where we can think together about what has and is happening to you, how you experience it and what hinders you managing stress more sustainable way.
