Holiday Stress and Anxiety Relational Psychotherapy

Holiday Stress and Anxiety

Holiday stress can exacerbate mental health issues or - on occasion - trigger new emotional challenges.  Expectations for a positive experience may trigger feelings of anxiety. The combination of social obligations, financial strain, longstanding family dynamics patterns and differing belief systems can sometimes feel overwhelming.  Holidays can be an opportunity to learn about boundaries and self care. Counselling may be helpful for all of these things.

 

Relational Psychotherapy, Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP)

Relational Psychotherapy assesses a client's psychic formation, which is the source of a person's interpersonal relationships and conflicts. A common therapy, Relational Psychotherapy focuses on the client's connection to other people.

When clients present with interpersonal relational distress, emotional or psychological issues, or chronic suffering, Relational Psychotherapy can be applied to help a person build and maintain emotionally  satisfying relationships. An atmosphere that provides attentiveness and empathy will help the client commit to full disclosure of events and experiences.

A stronger sense of self confidence will arm the client with the tools and skills needed to create healthy, productive relationships with other people.
