Kevin Scott - Psychotherapy
Do you feel pressured, overwhelmed or constantly on edge? Stress – Psychotherapy in Copenhagen & Online
Stress often occurs when external demands – or internal ones – exceed what we can handle over time. It can manifest as restlessness, fatigue, sleep problems, irritation, difficulty concentrating or a feeling of losing touch with ourselves.
When stress is allowed to persist for too long, it can develop into exhaustion or affect relationships, work life and physical health. Psychotherapy can be an important support in stopping, regaining balance and understanding what has brought you there.
I offer stress psychotherapy in English in Østerbro, Copenhagen and online.
How can psychotherapy help with stress?
In psychotherapy we work not only with the symptoms, but also with the patterns and life circumstances that have created the stress. I work holistically with thoughts, emotions, body and relationships.
1. Understand your stress
Stress is not a sign of weakness, but a signal. Together we explore:
-
what is bothering you
-
how you react under pressure
-
what demands and expectations (external and internal) are at stake
Increased understanding often creates the first relief.
2. Regulation of the nervous system
Prolonged stress keeps the body on high alert. In therapy we work with:
-
bodily awareness
-
breathing and regulation
-
to create more calm and stability in the nervous system
It provides better sleep, more energy and increased mental energy.
3. Boundaries, responsibilities and patterns
Stress is often associated with:
-
lack of boundaries
-
high responsibility or perfectionism
-
difficulty in noticing one's own needs
We work to create healthier boundaries and more sustainable ways of being in work, relationships and life.
4. Prevention and long-term balance
The goal is not just to get rid of stress, but to prevent relapse. Therapy helps you to:
-
Reconnect with yourself
-
find a better work-life balance
-
make choices that are more in line with your values
Stress manifests itself differently
Stress can manifest itself as:
-
constant fatigue or restlessness
-
sleep problems
-
wandering thoughts and difficulty concentrating
-
irritability or emotional flatness
-
physical symptoms such as tension, heart palpitations, or headaches
No matter how stress manifests itself for you, you are not alone – and there is help available.
