Allison Gildner
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPCC, PMH-C
You may not identify with the term "anxiety," but you know you feel overwhelmed. You may lay awake at night with racing thoughts, or you feel like you are constantly tackling a "to do" list that never really gets shorter. Your life may feel hectic, and you feel like you're constantly on edge. You may also notice feeling easily irritated. These are all understandable effects of living a life in stress mode, something we can tackle together in your therapy goals.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
If you’re feeling constantly on edge, exhausted, or like you can’t fully relax, chronic stress may be playing a role. My therapy approach offers a space to slow down, understand what’s driving these patterns, and reconnect with yourself. From there, we will work toward more sustainable ways of coping and restoring balance for long-term relief.

Feel like you are taking care of everything for everyone and have nothing left for yourself? Many people end up feeling burnout, irritability, or start having health problems when stress becomes too high or too constant. With warmth and compassion, I can help you restore a sense of balance, strengthen your coping skills, and create space for calm, clarity, and self-compassion in your life.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with working professionals who are carrying a lot on their shoulders and are starting to feel the cost. Many of the people I see work in high-responsibility environments such as medicine, tech, or other fields where there is constant demand and very little true off-time. From the outside, you may look calm, competent, and reliable. Inside, your mind may not turn off, your sleep may be disrupted, your body may feel tight or wired, or you may notice yourself snapping at people you care about. You may be the one others turn to in crisis, at work or at home, with almost no space where you get to set anything down.
Stress in this context often looks like living in constant problem-solving mode, feeling responsible for how things turn out, and having a hard time resting even when you are exhausted. You may be juggling intense professional expectations, long hours, and complex personal or family dynamics, with a sense that you cannot drop any of the pieces. Your body may be registering this through headaches, tension, fatigue, or a sense of being constantly “on,” while your mind keeps telling you to just keep going. It can be hard to know what you need when other people are so used to needing you.
In our work together, we make room for the part of you that has learned to function under pressure and to keep going no matter what. We look closely at what is driving your stress, how it is affecting your body, mood, and relationships, and the expectations you are carrying for yourself and your work. This is a confidential space where you do not have to be the strong one, where you can lay things down, be honest about how hard it feels, and begin to find a way of living that is more sustainable for you.

Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals rework the sources of chronic stress to achieve a steadier and more livable rhythm in life. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—overload, competing demands, and the meanings driving urgency—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less tension and spinning, more clarity, choice, and the capacity to meet demands without losing yourself.

Jennifer Whaley
Psychologist, PsyD
When stress is high, we give up self-care and coping strategies to keep our heads above water. I help to explore what strategies can be used and what thoughts and emotions add fuel to the fires.

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.

Brent Peak
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Stress isn’t just about having too much on your plate—it’s often about feeling responsible for things that aren’t yours to carry. Maybe you’re constantly managing other people’s needs, expectations, or emotions, leaving little time or energy for yourself. You might feel guilty setting boundaries, afraid of disappointing others, or overwhelmed by the pressure to always be available. If you grew up in an environment where your needs were dismissed, emotions were unpredictable, or you had to take on adult responsibilities too soon, your nervous system may have learned that stress is just a way of life. But living in constant overwhelm, anxiety, or emotional burnout isn’t sustainable—and it’s not your fault.
Post-Induction Therapy (PIT) helps uncover the childhood experiences that shaped your stress patterns, so you can stop over-functioning and start prioritizing yourself. When you learn how to set boundaries without guilt, recognize what is and isn’t yours to fix, and stop seeking approval at the cost of your well-being, stress no longer controls your life. Therapy helps you shift from surviving to truly living, creating space for peace, self-care, and relationships that feel mutually supportive instead of draining. You don’t have to keep pushing through exhaustion or waiting for the next crisis—you can reclaim your time, energy, and emotional freedom now.
