Caregiver stress refers to the physical, emotional, and mental strain experienced by individuals who provide care for a family member or friend. Often, caregivers prioritize the needs of their loved ones above their own, leading to feelings of overwhelm, fatigue, and frustration. In our therapy sessions, we create a safe space for caregivers to express their feelings and share their experiences. By understanding the unique challenges they face, we help them develop coping strategies and build resilience.Through talk therapy, we encourage caregivers to identify and articulate their feelings, fostering self-awareness and emotional regulation. Skill-building activities may include time management techniques, setting boundaries, and practicing self-care. Our goal is to empower caregivers, helping them to find balance and support in their lives while continuing to provide compassionate care.
