Nadia Malik

Registered Psychotherapist
Stress can be an overwhelming pressure that doesn’t give you room to breathe. It may feel like you are constantly on edge, irritated with never enough time in the day. When you’re stressed you may forget what’s important to you and leave behind things that bring you joy and pleasure thereby losing touch with yourself and your loved ones. Stress can lead to burnout. Together we can work on stress management, addressing underlying causes, relaxation, and better scheduling for your life to create a healthy sustainable balance.

Mississauga, Ontario therapist: Joanna Szczeskiewicz, registered social worker
Stress

Joanna Szczeskiewicz

Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
We feel stress when life demands outstrip our ability to perform. It is a confusing emotion: a blend of apprehension, sadness, frustration and decreased motivation despite clear awareness of the importance of the issues at stake. Unfortunately we cannot afford avoidance -- it's like driving with eyes closed. Things are bound to get much worse if do that. But we can learn to distinguish between the initial response of stress (unavoidable pain) and stressing about stress (secondary emotion / useless pain). We can examine the assumptions that keep rumination, worry, resentment, vigilance and all the other such processes in place leaving us no room for rest. We can learn to compartmentalize by understanding the difference between the time for problem solving, the time for implementing our solutions and the time to simply rest and appreciate the calmer aspects of our lives. We learn to think of all our outstanding obligations as books on the shelf that we open as needed as opposed to balls in the air that will drop on our head the moment we take a little break. The techniques that I have described here are all rooted in cognitive behaviour therapy, especially stress inoculation training and metacognitive approaches that help us deal with cognitive attentional syndrome (the main culprit behind our inability to stop overthinking). Eventually we get to open our eyes, clean the windshield and manage traffic issues - problems - as they come.
