Dealing with Stress
If you are experiencing high levels of stress, you might feel irritable, angry, impatient or anxious. It might also be challenging to identify what is a normal amount of stress or how to deal with it. Below is a list of questions and an online assessment that can support you with identifying specific areas to guide next steps with treatment. While these resources are helpful to start with, they should not take the place of an official assessment with a licensed clinician. Please know that you are not alone and it takes a lot of strength and courage to initiate therapy. I am here to answer any questions you might have to ease the process.
