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 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.

I assume Climate Anxiety is universally present in the collective unconscious. Joanna Macy has written: "Until the late twentieth century, every generation throughout history lived with the tacit certainty that there would be generations to follow. Each assumed, without questioning, that its children and children's children would walk the same Earth, under the same sky. Hardships, failures, and personal death were encompassed in that vaster assurance of continuity. That certainty is now lost to us, whatever our politics. That loss, unmeasured and immeasurable, is the pivotal psychological reality of our time."

Saffron Marriner
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP (Accred)
An integrative humanistic approach to stress management involves establishing a safe and supportive counselling environment where my clients feel heard and understood, encouraging self-exploration regarding thoughts, feelings and behaviours to gain insight into your stressors, promoting self-compassion, incorporating practices such as mindfulness, meditation and relaxation exercises to address stress. A trauma-informed approach to stress-management also involves creating a safe environment, recognising trauma triggers - identifying and avoiding potential triggers that may exacerbate stress or trauma responses, offering clients choices in your treatment to encourage a sense of control and empowerment, building skills for resilience, teaching you coping skills and strategies to manage stress, ensuring consistent and reliable support throughout the therapeutic process - using mindfulness to help you stay present and reduce stress. Through somatic processing, addressing the physiological effects of stress and trauma on the body. Using CBT techniques to help clients identify and challenge harmful thought patterns and behaviours. Working in an integrative humanistic and trauma-informed way necessitates a deep understanding of my client's individual experiences and a commitment to providing empathic, holistic and empowering care. By combining the strengths of both of these approaches, I support my clients in managing stress and building resilience. This approach addresses both the immediate symptoms of stress and also promotes long-term healing and personal growth.

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.

Stress manifests in many forms, either physically or emotionally, and can be detrimental to both our mental and physical health. We will work together to bring awareness to what is causing stress, looking at both internal factors – such as patterns of thought and behaviours – and external factors – such as work and financial. We will also develop strategies to help reduce stress and anxiety on a day-to-day basis.

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)

Kamini Wood
Life Coach, FHH, CLC, CPM
Stress is not always about having too much to do. Sometimes it comes from carrying too much. Constantly anticipating problems, taking responsibility for everyone else, struggling to say no, or feeling like you have to hold everything together can leave your mind and body in a constant state of tension.
Together, we'll explore the patterns contributing to your stress, strengthen your capacity to regulate emotions, establish healthier boundaries, and develop practical tools that help you respond to life's challenges without becoming overwhelmed. My goal is to help you create a life that feels more balanced, intentional, and aligned with your values, rather than one driven by constant pressure and survival.

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.

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.

For dealing with stress, first of all, I help my clients to manage their physical symptoms of stress and then they are able to take control of their bodies, we try to identify automatic negative thoughts and learn how to deal with them and challenge them.
