Laird Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
There are many sources of stress in our lives. Whether it is from relationships, work pressure, health issues, financial problems, family discord or other issues, stress can wear you down. When left untreated stress can cause anxiety and depression. While some stress is good, too much can lead to exhaustion and overwhelm. This is harmful because it can cause you to withdraw, disengage or turn to other coping strategies as a way to manage the stress.
Finding answers to stress is key. Sometimes just talking about it can make a big difference. Reach out today to learn more about how we can help you address the stress in your life.

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I help clients navigate stress by exploring the deeper emotional and relational patterns that may be contributing to overwhelm. Through a psychodynamic lens, we look at how internalized pressures, early caregiving dynamics, and unconscious beliefs about worth or responsibility shape the way stress is experienced. Together, we work toward greater insight, regulation, and a more compassionate way of relating to yourself under pressure.

KDW Counselling & Consulting
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RSW
Everyone deals with stress, but sometimes it builds to the point where it feels hard to cope. It can show up in your body, in your mood, and in how you relate to others. Therapy gives you space to slow down, understand what’s weighing on you, and learn ways to feel more steady and in control.

Clare Pentelow
Therapist, MSW, RSW
In our fast-paced world, stress is often wearisome and worn like a badge of honor, but internally, it can feel like a motor that won’t shut off. Chronic stress isn't just about having a full calendar; it’s a state of being "on" that eventually leads to burnout, irritability, and a profound sense of exhaustion. In our sessions, we work to unpack the impact that a life of high-pressure and "survival mode" has had on your body and your spirit.
I use a relational and body-aware approach to help you shift from a state of constant "doing" to a state of "being." We can incorporate EMDR to process the underlying stressors or past experiences that keep your nervous system stuck in a fight-or-flight response. By weaving in IFS and self-compassion, we’ll get to know the parts of you that feel responsible for holding everything together and work toward unburdening that immense pressure. My goal is to help you cultivate a sense of internal calm and resilience, allowing you to navigate life’s demands without losing yourself in the process.

David McAlinden
Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Candidate, Yorkville University
Stress can build slowly over time until it feels like you’re constantly tense, overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or unable to switch off properly. Work, relationships, family responsibilities, uncertainty, and the pressure to keep everything together can leave you feeling mentally and emotionally exhausted without even realizing how much you’ve been carrying.
I offer a calm and supportive space where you can slow things down, speak openly about what’s weighing on you, and better understand the pressures affecting your well-being. Together, we can work toward finding healthier ways to manage stress, create balance, and help you feel more grounded in your everyday life.

Mind Path Therapy
Therapist, MSW, RSW
It is not an exaggeration to say that the very structure of our fast-paced lives, and our relationship to technologies that give us by-the-minute news through our media feeds, creates a toxic, stress-inducing soup that we take in daily. You may be experiencing worsening sleep, increased muscle tension, changes in appetite, increased irritability, and decreased short term memory and poor focus. Through a holistic biopsychosocial assessment and a compassionate and empathetic stance, I will work with you to identify the different factors that may have caused or are maintaining unhealthy stress in your life. I can help you reduce and effectively manage stress by addressing the contextual factors (i.e., triggering events, relationships, and other challenging developments), explore your relationship to stress (i.e., what you do when your stress level becomes problematic), and assist you with developing coping strategies that will help you understand and resolve the stress cycle, harness the power of the relaxation response, reinforce problem-solving if this is needed, and adopt a more acceptance-based and growth mindset. Please reach out for a free consultation if you think this approach resonates with you.

Devka Andotra
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Stress is not just about feeling overwhelmed in the moment as it can be rooted in deeper patterns, past experiences, or ongoing life demands that feel impossible to escape. Whether you are dealing with short-term stressors or long-term burnout, therapy can help you understand where your stress comes from, how it affects you, and what you can do to regain control. For immediate relief, I integrate CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to help you manage daily stressors. For deeper, long-standing stress patterns, we may explore psychodynamic insights, family systems, or existential perspectives to uncover and reshape underlying beliefs that contribute to chronic stress. Together, we will create a plan that not only helps you cope but also fosters lasting emotional resilience.

Stress can show up in many forms—feeling overwhelmed, difficulty concentrating, irritability, sleep disruption, or a sense of being constantly “on.” I work with clients to better understand their unique stress responses and the internal and external pressures contributing to them. Using an eclectic, client-centered approach, I draw from a range of therapeutic modalities to support the development of practical coping strategies, emotional regulation skills, and self-awareness.

Sunlight Counselling, Melody Mann
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Stress can build slowly or hit all at once, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself. Whether you’re navigating burnout, caregiving demands, health challenges, grief, or a major life transition, stress can take a real toll on both mind and body.
In our work together, I offer a grounded, compassionate space to slow down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and reconnect with your inner resources. Drawing from EMDR, ACT, narrative therapy, and parts work, I help you understand your stress patterns, shift unhelpful beliefs, and build tools that support sustainable change-not just short-term coping.
My approach is holistic and collaborative. We pay attention to your body’s signals, your lived experiences, and the deeper stories shaping how you respond to stress. Together, we work toward greater clarity, self-trust, and resilience so you can move through life with more steadiness and ease.
