We specialise in helping people to deal with and accept stress, worry and anxiety and to manage any physical symptoms that stem from it through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Stress can be a result of internal and external factors and so our counsellors in London take a holistic approach, examining all contributing factors and ensuring that we tackle any triggers and teach coping mechanisms which can be used to alleviate symptoms and cope with burnout and exhaustion.

Symptoms of Stress

Stress can present in many forms as a stand-alone condition, or form part of conditions such as PTSD and panic attacks. Some symptoms of stress are mental, some physical and can include:

• Increased heart rate
• Anxiety
• Insomnia
• Digestion problems
• Dizziness
• Feeling overwhelmed
• Increasing worry
• Difficulty concentrating
• Panic attacks
• Drinking or smoking more

Accepting & Managing Stress

Many people think stress is normal and instead of seeking the right kind of help, push it to the back of their mind which only makes stress worse in the long run. Our Acceptance and Commitment Therapy counsellors in London listen to your experiences and discuss your goals in-depth so that we understand why you are feeling stressed, how you can feel better and come to terms with future bouts of stress.
