Psychologist, Ph.D.
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.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
When we feel bogged down by stress, it’s often difficult to get the same sense of enjoyment we once received from life’s simple pleasures, hobbies, and social engagements. A sense of guilt sometimes follows any effort to honor ourselves with self-care activities, a guilt that says “you should be doing…” or asks “is this really the best use of your time?”
Therapy can be the place to examine the root of the criticism, the values in the decisions you’re making, and to work through the mental, emotional and physical exhaust that so frequently comes with stress. We’ll cater our approach to precisely what your current experience is, considering how you’ve overcome past experiences of stress, as well.

Lila Wallace
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LFMT
Stress is so pervasive today that we sometimes forget it’s not a natural part of how humans function. I can help you understand what stress means in your mind and body and how to make better choices with that in mind. Although a certain amount of stress is useful, a feeling of being overwhelmed is not.

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.
