Stress is a common occurrence in today's world. There are differences between 'normal' stress and chronic/prolonged stress. Chronic stress is harmful to one's health and can lead to significant health issues, both physical and psychological. It is important to identify stressors, explore factors that cause chronic stress, and develop strategies to reduce daily as well as chronic stress.

Alison Alderdice, The Wise Mind Institute
Psychologist, PsyD
When you are feeling yourself overwhelmed, under-resourced, and unsure how to get yourself where you want to be, you are likely stressed. Stress is a multifaceted and uncomfortable experience that includes a number of different emotions, physical symptoms, and urges. I have ways to assess stress in your life to understand the various factors that contribute to it and to problem-solve ways to reduce it. Helping people live a less stressed life is one of my core goals as a therapist.

Damon Dodge
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Before becoming a therapist, I myself was a driven professional in a high-pressure environment. Traveling constantly and 60+ hour weeks were the norm. No matter how hard I worked, it never felt like enough, which led to burnout and a lot of self-doubt. That’s when I went to see a therapist—when I knew the way I was handling work just wasn’t working. In that process, I learned a lot about the things I was doing that made a tough situation even harder on myself. I learned how to take responsibility for my part in my struggles, while setting limits with work and eventually finding a career that was more congruent with my values and celebrated what makes me ME. By rediscovering and leveraging your strengths, you can learn to enlist the resources needed to tackle your current opportunities. Building on your best qualities can drive your professional growth and get you to the next level.
