Anxiety and stress are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world, impacting millions of individuals globally. Anxiety often presents as constant worry, restlessness, or panic attacks, while stress manifests through physical symptoms such as tension, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating. Counselors help clients develop coping mechanisms tailored to their unique needs, including mindfulness techniques, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and time management skills. These interventions aim to reduce the overwhelming feelings of stress and anxiety, allowing clients to regain control of their lives. The therapeutic process also involves identifying triggers and cultivating healthier habits, fostering resilience and emotional stability.
