Learn stress management from a clinical psychologist. Some treatments are clinical hypnosis (www.asch.net), biofeedback, Relaxation Response (Benson), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Peace and good health.

Yes, stress or intense acute emotions, can provoke tension headaches. True migraine events usually occur post-stress as a relaxation response emerges. Dr Seif has already described excellent interventional approaches.
