Stress Management & Burnout Counselling in Kathmandu
Stress is a normal response to pressure. It becomes a problem when it does not let up, and you begin to feel exhausted, tense, irritable or numb. Effective help is about understanding your limits, restoring your energy and building resilience.
Signs that stress has become too much
- Constant tiredness, even after rest
- Trouble sleeping, or sleeping too much
- Headaches, muscle tension or stomach problems
- Irritability, snapping at people, or feeling emotionally flat
- Dread about work, studies or responsibilities
- Withdrawing from friends and family
How counselling helps
Together we look at where the pressure is coming from, how you currently cope, and what has to change. Therapy may include:
- Understanding your stress response and early warning signs
- Practical tools for calming the body and mind
- Challenging unhelpful thinking, for example perfectionism and difficulty saying no
- Setting boundaries and making realistic plans
- Rebuilding routines for sleep, activity and recovery
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need counselling, or just a holiday?
A break helps when stress comes from temporary overload. If you recover little after rest, or the feelings return quickly, counselling can address the causes.
Can therapy help even if I can't change my job or situation?
Often yes. Therapy can change how you cope, set limits and make decisions, even when circumstances stay difficult.
