The High-Stress Work Positions of Virginia Beach, VA

Virginia Beach is home to many members of the naval forces and the Department of Defense, as well as other high-clearance professionals. These positions are very stressful in nature. Many members of the military or in security professions work long, demanding, and sometimes irregular hours. That can contribute to two phenomena known as shipyard burnout and shift work burnout. Shipyard burnout is a mental, emotional, and physical sense of exhaustion that is tied to careers in the naval profession. Shift work burnout is more generalized, but is a feeling of exhaustion that can accompany employment schedules that fall outside of the typical 9 to 5 schedule. Work anxiety therapy can help. Find a qualified virtual therapist who can assist with shipyard burnout therapy and high clearance professional therapy in Virginia Beach today.

Don’t Commute To Therapy - Online Therapy For Work Stress in Virginia Beach

Virtual therapy in Virginia Beach can help to reduce work stress and anxiety with no need to add another commute to your schedule. Some evidence-based therapy strategies a teletherapist might use include:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy or talk therapy that is used to break out of negative thought cycles. The first step with CBT is to identify continuous negative thoughts. For example, this could include thoughts such as “I am trapped” or “ This tunnel is not safe” when stuck in long commutes along I-264 and the HRBT. Once those thoughts are identified, a therapist can work with you to create replacement thoughts. Some examples of these would be, “I dislike driving along I-264, but I know that I am safe,” or “The HRBT is structurally stable and safe”. CBT can help with feelings of commute panic and tunnel driving panic attacks in Virginia Beach.

Trauma- Informed Therapy is a form of therapy that takes into account the large impact that previous traumas can have on everyday life. With trauma-informed therapy, the virtual therapist helps the individual identify any possible triggers for work-anxiety and burnout in his or her life. For someone experiencing shipyard burnout, a possible trigger may be going to the Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY). A trauma-informed therapist can help the individual get to the root of why the NNSY may be triggering for them and work on strategies to reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. There are trauma-informed shipyard burnout therapists in Virginia Beach.

Mindfulness Therapy combines traditional psychotherapy methods with mindfulness strategies. This form of therapy can be beneficial for reducing work anxiety because it helps individuals develop coping strategies to utilize in the moment when feelings of stress or panic arise. For example, if someone is experiencing commute panic due to the large amounts of traffic while driving along Independence Blvd, they could use some deep breathing strategies. This can help to reduce stress in that moment, even if the individual is unable to escape the traffic on Independence Blvd. Mindfulness Therapy can be a beneficial form of counseling for defense contractors in Virginia Beach.
