Stress Counselling:
Stress is a feeling which results from excessive pressures and environmental stimulation. Note that stress is defined as a human reaction, not a feature of the environment. By implication this feeling is unpleasant and unwanted, and there are likely to be associated medical symptoms if the pressure persists.

Stress Counselling is a popular talking therapy for stress and symptoms of discomfort that frequently associate with it. It is one of a range of approaches available for dealing with the stresses of modern life. The client is helped to relax, while techniques and strategies are taught to keep calm, and cope in stressful situations. During a stress counselling session, the counsellor carefully listens to the client, trying to assess the cause of the stress. Conversation is therefore an essential part of the process, and one which allows specific problems to be dealt with succesfully, under the counsellors direction and guidance.
