What is
Work-Related Stress?

Work-Related Stress is a mental health issue that can impact individuals in different ways. Understanding and addressing it through therapy can lead to improved well-being and quality of life.

What Is It?

Work-related stress occurs when the demands of a job exceed a person's ability to cope. It may result from long hours, unrealistic deadlines, lack of support, or high-pressure environments, leading to emotional and physical strain over time if not addressed.

Common Experiences

People experiencing work-related stress often report feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or irritable. Common symptoms include headaches, sleep problems, reduced concentration, and frequent worry about job performance. Some may feel under appreciated or fear job loss, making it difficult to switch off after working hours.

How It Can Affect You

Unmanaged work stress can lead to burnout, anxiety, depression, and decreased productivity. It may affect personal relationships and physical health. Therapy can help individuals identify stressors, develop healthy coping strategies, build resilience, and find balance between work demands and personal wellbeing.
