Work-related stress factors such as investigations, complaints, performance reviews, aggressive clients, conflict with colleagues, a high workload, or lack of job fit can cause detriment to your health and happiness. Studies have shown that when work stress becomes chronic, it can cause strain on not only your mental, but physical health as well. One in five Australians have been forced to take time off work due to stress, anxiety, depression or feeling mentally unwell. This statistic is twice as high in person’s who rate their workplace as ‘stressful’. To deal with these pressures, and avoid possible income loss, early intervention is key, and seeing a psychologist can equip you with skills, tasks and therapeutic methods that can help overcome or ease the impact of work stress on your well-being.
