Just like in any other problem-solving process, the first step in managing stress is identifying and acknowledging the existence of the crisis, which in this case is the psychological disturbance. This in turn creates the need for counseling upon which the approach to be used is devised. The counselor then gathers the tools required for the session as well as create a setting that provides a favourable atmosphere for the process. Begin by defining the problem and its implication and come up with a list of possible solutions. Weigh all options and pick the best of them, which is to be implemented. After counseling, the counselor also holds regular follow-up sessions with the client to evaluate the validity of the chosen strategy and establish whether the desired goals were attained.

The core purpose of the process is to help the client overcome the discomfort as well as formulate own strategies of dealing with such pressures in future. It also plays an important role in helping the client to identify and capitalise on their strengths as well as work out solutions to overcome their weaknesses.
