Finding support for stress

During stress counselling sessions, your psychologist can help you to better understand your triggers and responses to problem stress and help you learn strategies to more effectively respond across different domains of life. You'll focus on practical strategies, identify strengths, and work toward actionable goals to manage and reduce stress.

While there are many ways you can manage stress on your own, working with an experienced psychologist will ensure you are receiving evidence-based care that is customised to your specific circumstances.

Mental Health Impacts

Effective stress management can enhance mood and behaviour, reducing symptoms of anxiety, depression, burnout, irritability, and emotional exhaustion. By mitigating these mental health effects, individuals can improve their daily functioning and enhance their overall quality of life.

Physical Health Impacts

Stress can wreak havoc on the body, and effective stress management can reduce sleep disturbances, strengthen your immune system, and reduce the risk of heart disease, hypertension, and chronic pain conditions.

Cognitive Impacts

Successful stress management can improve cognitive function, including memory, concentration, and decision-making abilities. This cognitive enhancement can help with productivity, learning, and your overall cognitive well-being.

What to expect from an online session with a psychologist for stress management?

Your first session with a psychologist will largely focus on the presenting problem (or the main set of stressors you are seeking help to manage) and general questions about your work, living situation, health, family, friends, and romantic relationships.

Psychologists are trained to be non-judgmental and all sessions are confidential. In order to get the most out of sessions, it’s important to be as open and honest as possible so your psychologist can gain a real understanding of your situation and how they can most effectively help. Following the first session, your psychologist will tailor a course of evidence-based therapy specific to your needs and circumstances. Most people find they have reduced stress levels and reduced feelings of depression and anxiety following a short course of treatment.
