However, a bunch of different personalities, communication styles, and worldviews gather at work, so the days don’t always go smoothly. In fact, workplace bullying is on the rise, and some studies reveal that nearly half of all American workers have been affected by this problem either as a target or as a witness to abusive behavior against a co-worker.
workplace issues May include
- Poor job fit
- Overload and burnout

- Sexual or verbal harassment

How a Therapist Can Help
A therapist can provide a neutral and confidential space for individuals to discuss their challenges and gain clarity in how they want to move forward. Therapy sessions may focus on supporting an individual in gaining a better understanding of their work-related wants and needs, developing skills to ease stress or manage time, or honing communication and conflict resolution skills. Additionally, workplace issues often impact relationships and wellness practices outside of work due to reduced time, energy, and motivation. Because of this, therapy may also explore ways to restore a healthy personal life.
