Dr. Kelly Smith
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When you work in certain fields ongoing stress is a part of your job. However, sometimes when you go home it isn't so easy to just put that down. Families don't always understand why you are on guard, have difficulty turning off your brain, are irritable, angry, sad, or shut down emotionally. Sometimes those hard experiences that you see stick with you. At work they all get it, but you can't always be at work. It is possible to learn ways to better manage stress and let go of those memories so that when your loves ones need you, you can be present, loving, and connected. Don't let your job make your family a statistic.

Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
Challenging life transitions can often bring up anxiety and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) can help. CBT is an evidence-based form of therapy that focuses on changing patterns of thinking (cognitions) and behaviors associated with stress and anxiety. CBT is supported by research and considered to be the “gold standard” treatment for anxiety disorders. Research indicates that over 60% of those who undergo CBT experience a significant improvement in anxiety symptoms in 12 - 20 sessions. The tools and skills learned during CBT last a lifetime.
I commonly teach CBT strategies such as relaxation skills, problem solving, assertiveness skills and cognitive restructuring, which means reframing unhelpful thoughts. If you feel that stress and anxiety are negatively impacting your life then you are worthy of help and I would be honored to be your guide towards greater freedom and ease.

You live a demanding life, have a busy schedule, and tend to your most valued relationships. These daily stressors turn into anxiety, and anxiety turns into fear. You aren’t functioning at your best, or feeling like yourself. You deserve a life that isn’t infested with stress and worry!
You're dealing with constant worry about the future, so you can’t enjoy the present. You have a never-ending sense of “something bad is going to happen”. Paralyzing thoughts make you hesitate from doing things that are good for you. You experience crippling pressure to have everything figured out before you are allowed to feel okay. There isn't enough room in your head for all this stress, so the tension manifests in your body. You have waves of anger and sadness, and constantly struggle to get decent sleep.
Stress is in control of your life right now. It lies to you about what you’re capable of. It steals your ability to focus. It cheats you out of joy and ease. It invades your ability to have fun and connect with others. You’re white-knuckling your way through every day, but hide it behind a smile.
You might notice yourself feeling:
Not quite like your old self, but also not like the person you want to be.
You feel guilty for not being better, but simultaneously you feel straight-up exhausted!
You’ve spent your life trying to be perfect at the expense of your own happiness.
You’ve put yourself last for so long, that it feels selfish to think about what you need.
I Will Help You:
Clearly set and maintain boundaries in a way that is kind to yourself and others.
Confidently ask for what you want, and declare what you need — without feeling guilty.
Develop a strong, positive sense of self that is balanced and well-rounded.
Identify thoughts and scenarios that invites stress in.
Understand what anxiety is, how it can help you, and how it hurts you if you aren't careful.
Gain clarity on what’s keeping you stuck, so you can make choices that are right for you.
Develop healthy habits that evolve into a natural part of your lifestyle.
Connect with your intuition, and learn to listen to it.
Learn practical stills to control what you can, and let go of the rest.
Stress is a part of life — but it doesn’t need to run your life!
