Stress
Margaret Graham
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
The modern world's relentless demands create unprecedented levels of chronic stress that our bodies and minds weren't designed to manage indefinitely. I help clients develop personalized stress management systems that address both external factors (the barrage of information, attention hijacking technologies, and competing priorities) and internal responses. Through clinical hypnosis and evidence-based therapeutic techniques, clients learn to distinguish between productive and unproductive stress while developing practical tools for nervous system regulation. Our work often includes redefining personal success metrics to align with wellbeing rather than exhaustion—creating sustainable approaches to life's inevitable pressures.

Dr Pamela Helen Polcyn
Marriage and Family Therapist, Phd, MFT
Stress is part of life. How we handle it is learned. Determining whether it is motivating us or overwhelming us is a critical distinction to make. Skills can be learned and practiced to maintain the ability to stay on track with our goals and in our relationships even through stressful periods.

Stress
Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When we feel bogged down by stress, it’s often difficult to get the same sense of enjoyment we once received from life’s simple pleasures, hobbies, and social engagements. A sense of guilt sometimes follows any effort to honor ourselves with self-care activities, a guilt that says “you should be doing…” or asks “is this really the best use of your time?”
Therapy can be the place to examine the root of the criticism, the values in the decisions you’re making, and to work through the mental, emotional and physical exhaust that so frequently comes with stress. We’ll cater our approach to precisely what your current experience is, considering how you’ve overcome past experiences of stress, as well.

Stress
Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Stress can have you feeling burned out, on edge, anxious, irritable or highly reactive. Whatever the cause, especially when there are multiple sources of stress, your nervous system can chronically burn on overdrive, disrupting your sleep and interfering in relationships, job performance and life satisfaction. Even with multiple sources of pressure on you, therapy can help you learn to create external boundaries by limiting what you take on, and internal boundaries by holding all that pressure at arms length, and managing stress in ways that allow you to access a sense of calm in the storm. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that effectively free you from self-sabotaging patterns, and help you manage stress and build the balanced, happy life you deserve.

Please see any of the other entries. Stress is such a word that sometimes does a lot of heavy lifting in our world. Stress can mean brief experiences of sensory or cognitive overload, or could be an expression of anxiety, other health challenge impacting mental health. It could result from just not having language or a sense of space where one is accepted and can belong available to talk about one's challenge. Generally, if it's not CPTSD related there are lots of great ways to sort through overload and growth with working with inner feelings. If it's CPTSD and DID or other CPTSD based, parts work or other neurodevelopmentally supportive care might help. If it's oppression based or chronic health based, then it may help to share about the situation and find ways that are less taxing, require less masking, etc. to move through a situation or be at peace in it. Stress can sometimes mask grief. Our hegemonic culture has not developed or has even discarded tools for working with grief. So sometimes stress can be indicator that grief work is helpful. Also, a very real factor is disaster capitalism -- giving people a place to be real about that and its multiple devastating impacts is often very helpful. Sometimes it can open up new creative ways of addressing the challenge and finding agency that might have been inaccessible before. Sometimes there is just a need to mourn the challenges with other compassionate folks to feel less alone. Sometimes its about family or cultural conditioning to prove and succeed in an automated way, that discards the realm of emotions that unfortunately can't be stuffed or wedged out forever, as they are a useful gauge for inner and broader conditions when worked with constructively. Stress could be resultant from conditions not listed here, like being an overextended caregiver, etc. or stepping into one's first big art/creative event... If you're feeling stress, please feel free to reach out and ask for help!

Sarah Wagner LMFT Corp
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, MBA
Stress often intensifies during major life transitions—career shifts, parenting, relocation, or relationship changes. Through an attachment-informed and emotion-focused approach, we explore how stress impacts connection and communication.
Using IFS, we identify protective patterns such as irritability, withdrawal, or self-criticism, and strengthen internal self-leadership. Therapy helps you respond rather than react, fostering resilience both internally and relationally.

The pressures of life can make it difficult to thrive and feel emotionally regulated. My goal is to help you find what you need to feel that you can manage the stress of life and feel empowered to overcome whatever you face on a daily basis.

Stress
David Gumpert
Psychologist, PsyD
Stress in small amounts is helpful in giving us motivation to pursue our interests and follow through with commitments. At the same time, if unchecked, it can lead to anxiety and mental health disorders. Together we can learn how to manage stress better in your life so it is not negatively impacting both you mental and physical health, especially since we know now through decades of research that high levels of chronic stress can be a significant health risk (up there with smoking, poor diet, or lack of exercise).
