Almost anything can cause stress in one's life. Work, family, kids, friends, school, finances and life-changing events are all stressors that can cause a person to experience elevated stress levels. Although stress is a normal part of your life, overwhelming stress can result in health issues (such as heart disease and gastrointestinal problems), relationship strain, problems at work and even an increased likelihood of depression or anxiety.

Common symptoms of too much stress in your life include problems concentrating, sleep disturbances and eating too little or too much, consistently feeling down or worried and physical problems like headache, rapid heartbeat, pain and aches in your body.

Fortunately, no matter what is happening in your life, you can learn skills to control your stress. Our stress management is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the help of CBT, you will learn to identify and challenge the automatic negative thoughts that, up to this point, have caused you to feel overwhelmed with stress. Your therapist will help you build skills to cope and adapt to life’s stressors. You can learn practical strategies to better deal with problems and respond more calmly to stressful situations. The result? Not only will you feel better now, but you will also have these skills to use regardless of what happens in the future.

"So far it's been great. I found a wonderful therapist to talk to and am learning to change my behaviors and think about why I do some things. 10/10 would recommend!"

"I can’t recommend Marisa highly enough. When I started therapy, I felt anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck in a cycle of overthinking. Marisa created such a supportive and understanding space where I felt genuinely heard and understood.
She helped me work through some difficult emotions and, most importantly, helped me recognise that my feelings were valid. Through our sessions, I gained clarity, confidence, and a much kinder perspective towards myself. What once felt like a whirlwind of thoughts became much easier to understand and navigate.
I’m leaving therapy feeling far more optimistic about the future and much more confident in the decisions I’m making. Marisa has played a huge part in helping me get to that place, and I’m incredibly grateful for her guidance, compassion, and insight."

"Honestly, after leaving this therapy portal to try some others that are now being pretty much ran by AI and nowhere near as thoughtful I missed this. There's ACTUAL HUMANS even in the customer service which sounds little to some but mean a hell of a lot to me. Not only that, you get pretty good range of therapist from around the world that you can get a feel of and vet out. I found one that worked for me and genuinely missed her counseling. Highly recommended!"

"The information is sound and useful - however I don't want to be walked through the CBT method like I've never utilized it before (I myself am a therapist)."

"There are many things I enjoy about this service. I like that I can message my therapist anytime and they respond quickly. I love the price of the service. I love the structured program that it provides. The reading and worksheets have made me think and work really hard in ways I didn't expect. I'm only 3 weeks in. I'm excited for what's next."
