Coping mechanisms, or coping skills, are behaviors that people engage in to help them deal with difficult or stressful situations and emotions. Some can be healthy, but others aren’t.
Available Treatment Options
Therapists and counselors often work with clients to discover what coping mechanisms they’re using and determine if they are helpful. With this information, the person and the therapist can develop different coping mechanisms that are less harmful, such as meditation, exercise, journaling, drawing, or time with family.

Transitions such as the ending of a relationship, or a job loss, can feel just as intense as the death of a loved one. The loss you feel is profound. You feel sad. You feel anxious. You question why it happened. You aren't sure how to grieve, or even if you should. Phrases like...

Life problems can create feelings of depression, loneliness, hopelessness, and anxiety. In therapy we explore the reasons for self-defeating behavior. As we become more aware of what we do and why, we can begin to make the necessary changes for a happier, more fulfilling life. I believe therapy is a collaborative process.

Sometimes, life becomes stressful in our society, things change at a rapid pace and at times our mental health often suffers.
