Stress is a common experience in our everyday lives that can significantly impact our mental and physical health. It can come from various sources, such as work, school, relationships, or even our own internal world, and can cause feelings of worry, fear, and anger.  Stress can lead to physical  symptoms, such as headaches, fatigue, insomnia, and can even trigger mental health issues like anxiety and depression. It is important to recognize how stress can affect our lives and to take action to reduce the stress we are feeling.

At Chartwell, we understand the common causes of stress, such as work-related stress, family stress, relationship stress, and carer stress etc. We believe that counselling is a powerful tool to help manage stress. By talking and listening to a trained therapist, you can develop understanding of your sources of stress, strategies to manage them, and develop resilience to manage challenging circumstances. It is a safe space to recognise your strengths, identify areas for improvement, and develop workable strategies. With counselling, you can gain a better understanding of yourself and learn to manage your feelings, develop self-awareness, and create an environment that is conducive to managing stress. We are here to support you on your journey towards emotional and psychological well-being.
