Stress
Tara Lawton
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Stress is an unavoidable part of life—but when it becomes chronic, intense, or tied to your identity or profession, it can lead to burnout, anxiety, and a deep sense of disconnection. Over the past 20 years, I’ve worked with individuals from all walks of life, with a particular focus on professionals and healthcare workers who often face unique pressures, high expectations, and limited space for rest or vulnerability.
Together, we’ll explore your specific stressors, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build healthy, realistic strategies to manage stress more effectively. I incorporate tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and boundary-setting techniques, while creating a space where you can process your experiences without judgment. My goal is to help you restore balance, reduce overwhelm, and reconnect with your values both personally and professionally.

Psychworks Clinic
Psychologist, PHD
Stress is a part of life, but it doesn’t have to run your life. At PsychWorks Clinic, we help clients understand the roots of their stress and learn healthier ways to cope, recover, and reset. Whether you’re juggling work, family, school, or the constant pressure to keep it all together, our goal is to help you find balance and peace amid the chaos.
Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing, we teach practical tools for managing overwhelm, setting boundaries, and building resilience. We believe stress can be a signal, not of failure, but of the need to slow down, realign, and care for yourself differently. Together, we’ll work toward restoring calm, clarity, and control in your daily life.

Birmingham carries one of the most significant civil rights legacies of any American city — the site of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing and pivotal moments in the fight for racial justice — and this history creates a distinctive context in which racial identity, historical trauma, and community resilience are active themes in local therapy culture. The city is home to UAB (University of Alabama at Birmingham), one of the country's premier academic medical centers, which anchors significant mental health research, training, and clinical infrastructure. Birmingham's African American community — which comprises a majority of the city's population — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. The broader Birmingham metro's mix of healthcare, finance, and manufacturing industries creates diverse occupational therapy demand across a metropolitan area larger than the city itself.
