Work related stress is increasingly common and can have a significant impact on emotional, physical, and mental wellbeing. High workloads, tight deadlines, organisational changes, conflict with colleagues, or a lack of work-life balance can all contribute to feelings of overwhelm. Persistent stress can lead to exhaustion, anxiety, irritability, and reduced performance. Counselling provides a confidential and supportive space to explore work pressures, develop healthier coping strategies, and restore balance.
Counselling helps individuals understand their stressors, explore emotional responses, and develop healthier ways to manage pressure. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), stress management techniques, and problem-solving strategies, counselling supports clients in regaining control and improving wellbeing. At iTT, our counsellors provide a calm, confidential environment where clients can talk openly and find practical ways to cope with workplace challenges.
