Therapy for Chronic Stress

Are you struggling with the effects of financial anxiety?

Right now, you may be experiencing:

 

  • Persistent feeling of being overwhelmed by demands and responsibilities
  • Physical symptoms like tension, headaches, digestive issues, or fatigue
  • Difficulty sleeping or waking unrefreshed
  • Irritability or a shorter fuse than usual
  • Trouble concentrating or making decisions
  • Decreased motivation or enjoyment in activities
  • Feeling that you’re constantly in “emergency mode” without relief

You've started to recognize how chronic stress is impacting your life:

  • Your physical health may be suffering from ongoing stress
  • Relationships are strained by your limited emotional availability
  • Work performance or creativity is declining despite working longer hours
  • Self-care has fallen to the bottom of your priority list
  • You’re using unhealthy coping mechanisms to manage stress
  • The quality of your life has diminished as you’re just trying to get through each day
  • Your resilience is depleted, making even small challenges feel overwhelming

You’re wondering…

  • Is this level of stress normal, or is something wrong with how I’m managing life?
  • How do I distinguish between a busy, full life and unhealthy chronic stress?
  • Why can’t I seem to handle demands that others manage with apparent ease?
  • What’s the difference between stress, burnout, and depression?
  • Is it possible to reduce my stress when external demands remain high?
  • How is chronic stress affecting my physical health and cognitive functioning?
  • Will I need to completely change my life to find relief, or are there other approaches?

You’re longing for…

  • A sense of calm and balance that persists even during challenging times.
  • Physical wellbeing and energy rather than constant depletion.
  • The ability to respond thoughtfully rather than react from stress.
  • Clear boundaries that protect your wellbeing while meeting key responsibilities.
  • Enjoyment and engagement in life rather than just surviving each day.
  • Resilience that allows you to bounce back from inevitable stressors.
  • A sustainable approach to your work and responsibilities.

How we can help you.

At Evergreen Counseling, we understand that chronic stress can develop gradually as demands consistently exceed resources, creating a state where your nervous system remains on high alert without adequate recovery. Our trauma-informed approach recognizes that vulnerability to chronic stress is influenced by both current circumstances and earlier experiences that shaped your stress response patterns and beliefs about productivity, worth, and safety.

What you’re longing for is possible.
