If you are noticing stress from work bleeding into your life, it might be time for some counseling support around your relationship to work.
Counseling can do so much more than just provide self-care practices. We use cognitive restructuring and a neurobiological understanding of stress to change the way all your work stressors feel and the meaning of them in your life- transforming your relationship to work. If you've tried and failed with different 'self care' strategies, I can help.
