Stress
Stress is tied to the modern way of life — the constant chase for achievements, the dictation of joy and beauty from social media that imposes impossibly high standards, suggesting that anything less than perfect looks, unforgettable outings, and fascinating photos from expensive trips is unacceptable. Employers set targets that leave no time to enjoy reaching them, constantly pushing us to climb higher and work even harder.
Over time, stress becomes our daily companion. If we ignore it, it will escalate and manifest through various forms such as outbursts of anger, obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic attacks, and it will also endanger your physical health.
By applying modern knowledge and techniques, we will work to help you understand the context in which stress appears, its meaning and function in your specific case, and to strengthen your resilience to the various factors that cause it — so that you can control it rather than it controlling you, and so you can finally feel free and relaxed.
Questions & Answers
How can I reduce stress?
This is a process that can involve several things. Psychotherapy can help you learn to set boundaries — to understand that you have the option to say "no" and that the world will not fall apart if you don't meet other people's expectations.
Do I have burnout?
If you constantly feel exhausted, if your motivation has dropped significantly, if you feel bad every time you think about work, if you've started constantly avoiding responsibilities, lose your temper faster, get into arguments, sit in your car in the parking lot outside the office and can't bring yourself to go in, and you're becoming cynical… and all of this has been going on continuously — you've most likely burned out.
Is burnout only related to work?
Burnout is a concept primarily associated with work, but it is a pattern that can also be recognized in other areas of life — in family and relationship dynamics where one person gives too much and puts in maximum effort continuously, without seeing results.
