Work can be stressful from time to time, but when the stress becomes too much to bear, it’s wise to consider outside help. With the guidance of a stress therapist, you can discover the causes of your work stress and how to cope.

Wherever you are located in Illinois from Chicago to Zion or even Lindenhurst, or anywhere else nearby, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.

Signs You Need a Stress Therapist

Work stress often stems from long work hours, clashes with coworkers or superiors, and a lack of job security, but many other issues could be to blame. Sometimes work is so demanding that you bring it home with you, leading to a poor work-life balance.

Here are some signs that indicate that you should see a therapist for work stress:

  • You dread going to work.
  • You have trouble remembering things.
  • You bring work matters home with you.
  • You self-medicate with drugs or alcohol.
  • You have physical symptoms: digestive issues, teeth grinding, dizziness, body aches, sleep changes, or headaches.
