Cook Counseling and Consulting Inc.
Counselor/Therapist, LISW-S, LCSW-QS, CCTP
Therapy for stress, also known as stress management therapy or stress reduction therapy, is a form of counseling that focuses on assisting individuals in coping with and mitigating the adverse effects of stress. Stress is a normal response to life's demands and challenges, but chronic or overwhelming stress can harm physical and mental health. Therapy provides tools and strategies to manage stress and promote overall health effectively.
The effectiveness of stress management therapy is contingent upon the individual's dedication to implementing the strategies discussed in treatment and making positive adjustments in their daily lives. Individuals can build resilience, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and reduce the negative impact of stress on their well-being through therapy.
Suppose stress is significantly affecting your daily life or well-being. In that case, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a qualified mental health professional with experience in stress management therapy to address your specific requirements and develop a personalized stress management plan.

Counseling can help with stress through talking about what is triggering it, as well as developing more effective coping strategies. We can help improve your stress management repertoire through training in relaxation strategies as well as problem-solving therapy.

Stress
Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Stress often isn’t just happening in your mind—it lives in the body. Many people come to therapy feeling tense, exhausted, or stuck in a constant state of urgency, even when they know they’re “safe.” In my work with stress, I focus on helping the nervous system settle, not just talking through the problem. When the body stays on high alert, insight alone isn’t enough; we need ways to help your system feel grounded again.
I use emotion-focused tapping (EFT) and gentle somatic, body-based practices to help release stored tension and calm overwhelm. These approaches work by bringing awareness to physical sensations, emotions, and stress responses in real time—allowing your body to reset rather than power through. Over time, clients often notice they feel more present, less reactive, and better able to handle daily pressures without burning out. Therapy becomes a place where stress is met with relief, safety, and real restoration—not just coping.

Stress
Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Chronic stress doesn't just exhaust the mind—it live-wires the nervous system, leading to physical fatigue, emotional overwhelm, and severe burnout. If you feel like you are constantly operating in "survival mode," Anne provides a warm, restorative, and collaborative space to help you hit the pause button. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a certified specialist in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), she partners with individuals to unpack the roots of their chronic stress and build reliable, daily practices to regain a sense of calm and control.
By combining evidence-based psychotherapy with creative art therapy techniques, she helps clients bypass the intellectual overthinking that keeps stress trapped in the body. Together, you will develop sustainable boundaries, learn somatic grounding tools, and change how you react to pressure. Whether your stress is driven by high-functioning anxiety, professional burnout, a new medical diagnosis, deep grief, or the overwhelming "invisible load" of the parenting and perinatal journey, Anne is dedicated to helping you move from a state of constant depletion to resilient, balanced living.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
Stress is an undeniable and unavoidable part of life. So trying to avoid stressful situations entirely is not a good solution. But what we can do is learn to manage stress effectively. This can involve learning some of the many stress management techniques, of course, but it also needs to involve a shift in what we could call mental attitude, approach, or even how we habitually tend to perceive reality. When I work with people who are often stressed, I am very interested in helping them to understand how their habits of perceiving reality contribute to their feelings of stress and overwhelm. Once this is understood, stress management becomes much easier.

Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Stress touches every part of life, and it can leave you feeling wired, exhausted, and like you’re never really off-duty. In our work together, we slow down and listen to the “parts” of you that are overworking, worrying, caregiving, or bracing for the next crisis, using Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, and somatic presence to help your body and mind come out of constant fight‑or‑flight. As you learn to recognize your limits, honor your needs, and soften long‑held patterns, stress becomes more manageable, and you can experience more ease, clarity, and moments of real rest in your everyday life.

Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Stress is inevitable. Suffering is not. My approach to stress is informed by research from the fields of behavioral health and lifestyle medicine, as well as the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program and so-called "third-wave" cognitive-behavioral models including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Let's surf the waves of life stressors together and learn how to stay (mostly) above water.
