Stress Management Counseling · 压力管理咨询

basic
You

I've been feeling burnt out from work and this trip was supposed to help, but I still feel stressed.

我工作已经精疲力竭了,这次旅行本来是为了放松,但我还是觉得有压力。

Burnout can follow you even on vacation. What does your stress feel like — is it more physical, emotional, or both?

倦怠感即使度假也可能伴随你。你的压力是什么感觉——更多是身体上、情绪上,还是两者都有?

You

Both. My shoulders and neck are always tense, and I feel irritable and emotional.

两者都有。肩膀和脖子一直紧绷,而且容易烦躁和情绪化。

That physical tension is your body's stress response. Let's explore what's driving the burnout. Is it the workload, the work environment, or something else?

身体紧绷是你身体的压力反应。让我们探讨一下倦怠的根源。是工作量、工作环境,还是其他原因?

You

Mainly the workload. I can never seem to finish everything. I feel guilty whenever I take a break.

主要是工作量。好像永远做不完。每次休息都有负罪感。

That guilt around resting is very common in high achievers. Setting boundaries isn't selfish — it's necessary for long-term performance.

对休息感到内疚在高成就者中很常见。设定界限不是自私——是长期表现的必要条件。

You

How do I learn to set boundaries without feeling like I'm letting people down?

怎样才能学会设定界限又不觉得在让别人失望?

We can practice that. Start with small, clear boundaries. For example, not checking work emails after 8 PM. Over time, it gets easier.

我们可以练习。从小的、明确的界限开始。比如晚上8点后不查工作邮件。慢慢就会越来越容易。

You

That makes sense. I think I need to make some changes when I get back.

有道理。我想回去后需要做一些改变。

That's a great insight. Let's make a concrete plan before you leave. Small consistent changes are more effective than dramatic ones.

这是很好的自我认知。我们在你离开前做一个具体计划。小的持续改变比剧烈变化更有效。

Finding Remote Counseling · 寻找远程咨询

intermediate
You

I'd prefer to talk to a counselor in Mandarin. Do you offer sessions in other languages or can you refer me?

我更想用中文和咨询师交流。你们提供其他语言的咨询吗,或者能推荐吗?

We don't have a Mandarin-speaking counselor in-house, but I can refer you to a telehealth platform that connects you with bilingual therapists.

我们没有说普通话的咨询师,但我可以推荐一个远程医疗平台,能匹配双语治疗师。

You

That would be great. How does telehealth counseling work?

那太好了。远程心理咨询怎么进行?

You download the app, create a profile, and select a therapist based on language, specialty, and schedule. Sessions are via video call, usually 50 minutes.

下载应用,创建档案,根据语言、专长和时间表选择治疗师。通过视频通话咨询,通常50分钟。

You

How much does it typically cost?

通常多少钱?

Online sessions typically range from $80 to $150. Some platforms offer a sliding scale based on income, and your insurance may cover part of it.

线上咨询通常80到150美元。有些平台根据收入提供浮动价格,你的保险可能报销部分费用。

You

Is there a crisis line I can call if I'm feeling really bad at night?

如果晚上感觉很不好,有紧急热线可以打吗?

Yes — the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7. You can call or text 988. They also have services in multiple languages, including Mandarin.

有——988自杀和危机热线全天候运行。可以拨打或发短信988。他们也提供多种语言服务,包括普通话。

You

Thank you for all this information. I'll look into the telehealth option.

谢谢这些信息。我会去了解远程医疗的选择。
