Addressing work stress is important because women often face a distinct mix of workplace pressures. For example, women are more likely to experience unequal pay, limited advancement opportunities, caregiving responsibilities, discrimination, and expectations around emotional labor. These common issues compound stress levels and increase the risk of anxiety, depression, and burnout. Dr. Sandra Rodriguez-Siuts provides a confidential space to process these stressors, develop coping strategies, and build resilience. Therapy can help women set healthier boundaries, manage perfectionism and imposter syndrome, and address the emotional impact of chronic stress before it leads to long-term mental or physical health problems. When women address their work stress, they are likely to improve their well-being, job satisfaction, productivity, and retention, benefiting both individuals and organizations.
