Emily Stone
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MDiv, PhD, LMFT-S
Stress: From Constant Pressure to Systemic Calm
Moving Out of Survival Mode and Back into Your Life
Stress is often minimized as a "part of life," but when it becomes chronic, it is a physiological and systemic crisis. It is the feeling of being permanently "on," where the minor inconveniences of life trigger a massive internal overwhelm. In my practice, we don’t just look at your "to-do" list; we look at the systemic and neurological roots of why your body has stayed in a state of high alarm.
The Architecture of Overwhelm
Chronic stress isn't just about having "too much to do"—it is about a nervous system that has lost its way back to safety. Together, we explore:
The Burnout Cycle: Addressing the "adrenal fatigue" and emotional exhaustion that come from living in the "gap" between your resources and your responsibilities.
The "Fawn" & "Freeze" Responses: Understanding how your stress might manifest as people-pleasing (fawning) to keep the peace, or a total shut down (freeze) when things get too heavy.
Demand Avoidance: Identifying how chronic stress can lead to a "rebellious" brain that avoids even simple tasks as a desperate bid for autonomy.
A Clinical Approach to Regulation
With over 20 years of experience, I use a multidimensional framework to help you lower the "baseline" of your stress:
Somatic Regulation: We focus on the "gut-brain axis" work to help your body physically exit the stress response.
IFS-Informed Parts Work: We get curious about the "Manager" parts of you that believe if you stop being stressed, everything will fall apart. We work to build trust so these parts can finally soften.
Systems Theory & Power: We acknowledge the external stressors—social inequity, workplace toxicity, and family dynamics—that are not "in your head," but are real systemic pressures that require boundaries rather than just "coping."
The "Healer's" Burden
I have a specialized focus on the unique stress of therapists, pastors, and medical professionals. When you are the "sturdy container" for everyone else’s crisis, your own system often pays the price in secret. I provide a confidential sanctuary to address the secondary trauma and professional pressure that leads to systemic collapse.

Stress
Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, constantly stressed, or like you’re running on autopilot just trying to keep up, you’re not alone. Stress can build up quietly over time until even small things start to feel exhausting, and it can be hard to slow down without feeling guilty or like you’re falling behind. In therapy, we’ll work together to better understand what’s contributing to your stress and find coping strategies that actually fit your life and needs. My approach is supportive, practical, and judgment-free, giving you space to breathe, process, and feel supported instead of carrying everything on your own. Together, we’ll focus on creating healthier boundaries, more balance, and ways to help life feel calmer, more manageable, and less overwhelming.

Leigh Ann Lichty | INNER FLOW Counseling & Art Therapy, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, ATR-BC
I am here to help you figure out how to de-stress your life. We can do this by taking a look at how you're functioning daily and what may be contributing to your high stress level. Small changes can make a big difference, and we don't have to reinvent the wheel. I encourage you to be open to doing things a little differently, thinking a little differently, and being willing to let go of things that aren't serving you! We can't make stress completely disappear, but you can learn to manage it more effectively!

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You’re the person everyone else leans on—the fixer, the reliable one, the person who can keep 47 plates spinning even when everything feels like it’s on fire. But the stress you carry quietly can feel incredibly heavy, even if you don’t always let it show. Dr. Shields understands that pressure firsthand—she’s walked through the fire herself. Blending evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and practical, honest-to-goodness boundary-setting, she’ll help you figure out what’s fueling your stress, how to genuinely lower the volume on it, and (finally!) let yourself exhale and feel like you again.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address stress with a compassionate and faith-centered approach, integrating psychological insights with Christian principles to guide individuals toward a sense of peace and resilience. Recognizing the challenges of stress in daily life, I create a supportive environment that incorporates prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on relying on God's strength. Drawing upon biblical teachings on trust, surrender, and finding rest in God, I collaborate with individuals to identify stressors, develop coping strategies, and foster a deeper connection with their faith. Encouraging individuals to cast their anxieties onto God and embrace a balanced life, I seek to empower them to navigate stress through the lens of Christian values. This integrated approach seeks to promote mental and emotional well-being while fostering a reliance on faith to navigate life's challenges within the context of Christian beliefs.

Stress
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.
