You know the feeling, your heart pounds faster, your muscles tighten and your breath quickens.

For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life.

If you’re going through a tough time or experience, whether you’re feeling stressed or something more, having friends and family to talk to is important, but sometimes it’s not enough, and professional help is needed.
