Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Chronic stress can leave you feeling constantly wired, physically exhausted, and perpetually operating on survival mode. When daily pressures from work, family, or life transitions stack up, it can feel impossible to find your footing. I help individuals step off the treadmill of chronic overwhelm and restore balance to their lives. My approach targets stress from two critical angles: we utilize practical CBT and DBT tools to manage immediate stressors, challenge overwhelming thoughts, and set healthy boundaries, while integrating advanced brain-body modalities like EMDR and Brainspotting to calm an overstimulated nervous system. Together, we will work to expand your window of tolerance, clear the mental clutter, and help you shift from simply surviving your days to intentionally thriving in them.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
There are a lot of ways to look at stress. Here's a way of looking at stress that I find useful:
Stress is what happens when your body builds up energy to handle one or more situations, but ends up rallying more energy than is necessary to handle those situations well. For example, you have to do your taxes? So your body pumps out a bit of cortisol to get you focused enough to take it seriously. Great. But what happens when your body just keeps dumping cortisol till you feel overwhelmed and exhausted? That's stress.
With Somatic Experiencing, we work together to teach your body how to use just enough energy to get the job done, and then let go of that energy once the job is finished. Rally, execute, then rest. Viola, less stress.

Shawna Stillwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, IMFT-S
When stress becomes chronic, it stops feeling like a response to circumstances and starts feeling like "just the way things are." This can lead to many other mental and physical health issues, which only perpetuates the cycle of stress. I help clients to get underneath the stress, understanding what's driving it, what its protecting, and how to relate to it differently so it has less power over your daily life.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Stress is a major part of grief because death changes daily life in a way the mind and body cannot easily absorb. A person who was part of your everyday world is suddenly no longer there, and that absence can feel shocking, unnatural, and impossible to make sense of. The permanence of death, the disruption of routines, the empty bedroom, the quiet house, the missed future, and the reality of never seeing that person again can create intense emotional and physical stress.
Grief-related stress can also come from triggers, looping thoughts, forgetfulness, irritability, exhaustion, loss of interest in people or hobbies, and the feeling that your thoughts are no longer fully in your control. A song, a coffee shop, a date, a smell, or an ordinary place can suddenly bring the loss back with force. These reactions can feel frightening because they are different from who you were before the loss.
As a certified grief coach, I support adults by acknowledging that these reactions make sense. I explain where grief-related stress comes from in plain, human language, without psychobabble, and help clients understand why their mind and body may be responding this way. I also offer practical tools to cope with triggers, manage overwhelming thoughts, soften the stress response, and move through daily life with more steadiness and support.

The Becoming Therapy Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LMFT
Chronic stress in women is often normalized, even celebrated as a sign of dedication. But your body and mind keep score, and over time, stress left unaddressed becomes burnout, physical symptoms, and emotional depletion. We help women identify what's driving their stress, set realistic limits, and build rhythms that are actually sustainable. You shouldn't have to run on fumes to be considered a good mother, partner, or professional.
