When Stress Becomes Your Normal
You may be holding everything together — work, relationships, family — but inside, you feel stretched thin. Your mind is racing, your sleep is off, and no matter how much you get done, it never feels like enough. Maybe your body has started to show the strain too — headaches, fatigue, tension, or constant restlessness.
Stress is your body’s way of saying something needs care. When it becomes chronic, it can leave you feeling anxious, irritable, or disconnected from what once brought joy.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you calm your nervous system and regain a sense of balance. Together, we’ll:
Identify the thoughts and habits that keep your stress cycle running
Build emotional tools to manage pressure without burning out
Learn how to pause and reset your body’s “threat mode” using neuroscience-based skills
Strengthen your boundaries and reconnect with what truly matters to you
Replace overthinking and self-criticism with clarity and confidence
Our work combines practical tools, humor, and self-compassion — because healing from stress isn’t about doing more, it’s about learning how to do less with more presence and peace.
I BELIEVE:
Your stress is not a personal failure — it’s a signal asking for understanding, not judgment.
Balance isn’t something you find; it’s something you build, moment by moment.
You can be both ambitious and grounded, productive and peaceful.
Boundaries are acts of self-respect, not selfishness.
You deserve a life that feels manageable, meaningful, and your own.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

Wendy Jensen LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Hypnotherapist, Diplomate Comprehensive Energy Psychology
Nearly half of women report a rise in stress levels over the past five years. And while women and men tend to cope with stress differently, we know that chronic stress contributes to a range of health problems in both sexes, including mental health disorders, heart disease and obesity, depression, anxiety, low sex drive, memory and concentration problems, headaches, upset stomach, lack of focus, lack of energy and mood swings.
Stress can be a motivator, and it can even be essential to survival. The body’s fight-or-flight mechanism tells a person when and how to respond to danger. However, when the body becomes triggered too easily, or there are too many stressors at one time, it can undermine a person’s mental and physical health and become harmful.
Stress is the body’s natural defense against predators and danger. It causes the body to flood with hormones that prepare its systems to evade or confront danger. People commonly refer to this as the fight-or-flight mechanism.
Managing stress calls for addressing the mind as well as the body, since both the brain and body contribute to symptoms. In my practice, I employ a variety of stress busting techniques derived from energy psychology including acupoint tapping, EMDR, Regenerating Images in Memory (RIM), guided meditation and exercises such as tai chi and qi gong movements meant to disapate stuck energy from the body.

Mensch Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
With any chronic high-functioning behavior patterns comes with added stress and pressure. You may not "feel" stressed but you notice your body shows signs of it. Increased fatigue, frequent waking, 4 cups of coffee a day, body aches, the list goes on forever. Sure, we can chalk it up to living in a capitalistic society and our cultures emphasis on always doing something. Even with a culture we can't change, our bodies are screaming at us to listen. Your engine needs a break. I'm not asking you to throw in the towel on everything that stresses you out (if only)! I am asking you to slow down, recalibrate your nervous system, and figure out a routine that works for you. We'll map out your stress patterns, incorporate somatic practices that work for you, and identify what is worth keeping and what is not.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Chronic stress can affect every area of life, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, irritable, or disconnected from yourself. Many high-functioning individuals become so accustomed to operating in survival mode that stress begins to feel normal. Therapy can help you better understand your stress response, develop healthier coping strategies, and create more balance in your daily life.

Lesley Lacny
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A, Psych.R, C.Psych, LPC
Stress can show up as feeling constantly overwhelmed, tense, irritable, or mentally exhausted. It often affects sleep, focus, mood, relationships, and your overall sense of balance and well-being.
I provide therapy for stress to help you understand what’s driving your overwhelm—both emotionally and in your nervous system. Together, we’ll explore the underlying patterns, pressures, and internal responses that keep you stuck in a heightened state of tension.
The focus is on helping you feel more grounded and regulated, while also building insight into what’s contributing to stress so you can respond differently, restore balance, and move through life with more ease and clarity.

Peaceful Warrior Wellness Services, LLC / Dr.Steven Ruiz Bettencourt, Psy.D.,LPC, Cht, EMDR
Licensed Professional Counselor, Doctor of Psychology, Licensed Psychotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist, EMDR
Stress is an internal event. It is the result of an overly activated fight/flight mechanism that has not had a chance to wind down and return to a pre-activated mental and emotional state. A stress response may include increased blood pressure, hormone levels (cortisol, epinephrine/norepinephrine), heart rate, racing thoughts, irritability, negative cognition, depression, anger, as well as the decrease of patience, feelings of well being, hope and positive cognition. Psychotherapy would focus on journaling, identifying triggers, meditation, mindfulness, bio-feedback referral, diet, regular exercise, weight management, getting enough sleep, EMDR, hypnosis, ect.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Stress becomes a problem when the off switch stops working — when you're always running, always behind, always managing, and your body has forgotten what it feels like to truly rest. Chronic stress wears down the nervous system, contributes to anxiety and depression, and chips away at your relationships and sense of self over time. I help clients understand what's driving their stress at a deeper level, develop nervous system regulation skills that actually work, and build a more sustainable way of living — one where you're not perpetually running on empty.
