Stress
Therapy

Everyone experiences stress. Stress can come from anywhere: day-to-day activities, relationships, work, life changes, illness, even from fun events. Stress is one way that our bodies respond to the demands of our lives. A little bit of stress can be healthy-it keeps us alert and productive. However, all too often, we experience too much stress. Too much stress can result in serious physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms.
