Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
I support clients experiencing stress by helping them identify the sources of overwhelm—whether situational, systemic, or internal—and understand how stress shows up in their bodies, thoughts, and behaviors. The focus is on building emotional regulation skills, developing practical coping strategies, and shifting unhelpful patterns like perfectionism or over-responsibility. Therapy creates space for clients to pause, recalibrate, and reconnect with their values, so they can move through stress with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion.

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.

Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Stress can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you in your stressreminding you that you are not alone. We can explore how stress feels for you, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

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.

Szilvia Kovacs
Psychologist, Counselling Psychologist, Hypnotherapist
We all have a certain amount of stress in our lives, and we can usually cope with it. The problem starts when the pressure is unmanageable via the known coping mechanisms, and we may feel helpless, grow anxious and have all sorts of psychosomatic symptoms. There are many tools to build resilience and set a new lifestyle for your harmony to prevent this chaotic state or recover from any stress-related issues. The regular practice of mindfulness, meditation or relaxation is the foundation of my therapy work.

Stress
Jimi Katsis
Registered Psychotherapist, MA psych, Dip SW
Everyone talks about stress like it's normal. "Just stressed" becomes the default answer when someone asks how you are. But when stress becomes your baseline—when your body never gets to rest, when you're constantly in fight-or-flight, when you can't remember the last time you felt calm—that's not normal. That's your nervous system stuck in survival mode.
You might notice it as tension headaches, trouble sleeping, irritability, or just feeling wired all the time. Your body's telling you it can't keep running at this pace, but you don't know how to slow down. Maybe you've tried meditation apps or breathing exercises, and they help for five minutes, then you're right back to it.
The problem isn't that you're bad at managing stress. The problem is understanding why your system stays activated even when there's no real threat. What are you protecting against? What feels dangerous about letting your guard down?
We work to understand what's keeping your nervous system on high alert, then help it learn that it's safe to rest. Not through more techniques to manage stress better, but by addressing why you're stuck in stress mode in the first place.

Please see any of the other entries. Stress is such a word that sometimes does a lot of heavy lifting in our world. Stress can mean brief experiences of sensory or cognitive overload, or could be an expression of anxiety, other health challenge impacting mental health. It could result from just not having language or a sense of space where one is accepted and can belong available to talk about one's challenge. Generally, if it's not CPTSD related there are lots of great ways to sort through overload and growth with working with inner feelings. If it's CPTSD and DID or other CPTSD based, parts work or other neurodevelopmentally supportive care might help. If it's oppression based or chronic health based, then it may help to share about the situation and find ways that are less taxing, require less masking, etc. to move through a situation or be at peace in it. Stress can sometimes mask grief. Our hegemonic culture has not developed or has even discarded tools for working with grief. So sometimes stress can be indicator that grief work is helpful. Also, a very real factor is disaster capitalism -- giving people a place to be real about that and its multiple devastating impacts is often very helpful. Sometimes it can open up new creative ways of addressing the challenge and finding agency that might have been inaccessible before. Sometimes there is just a need to mourn the challenges with other compassionate folks to feel less alone. Sometimes its about family or cultural conditioning to prove and succeed in an automated way, that discards the realm of emotions that unfortunately can't be stuffed or wedged out forever, as they are a useful gauge for inner and broader conditions when worked with constructively. Stress could be resultant from conditions not listed here, like being an overextended caregiver, etc. or stepping into one's first big art/creative event... If you're feeling stress, please feel free to reach out and ask for help!
