Stress
Vince Heyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
Chronic stress can feel relentless, causing your mind to spiral, keeping your body tense and on edge, and leaving you exhausted or overwhelmed. Often, stress is fueled by high expectations, an overwhelming mental to-do list, or the pressure to control too much at once. Over time, this can drain your energy, strain relationships, and make everyday life feel heavy.
In therapy with me, we’ll explore how these patterns take hold, learn practical ways to quiet the mind and reset the nervous system, let go of the pressure, and confidently navigate challenges. Together, we’ll create space for clarity, steadiness, and a more sustainable way of living.

Stress
Bridgit Serrano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
I specialize in stress that stems from high expectations, major life transitions, and the demands of motherhood. Many of the women I work with are capable and driven, yet feel chronically overwhelmed, overstimulated, and unable to fully relax. Rather than focusing only on time management or surface coping skills, we address the underlying issues contributing to persistent stress. The goal is to help you feel more regulated and grounded in your daily life.

Burnout often hides behind competence. If you are the one everyone relies on and you are running on empty, we work on boundaries, rest, and what you actually need, not just what you can push through.

Stress
Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
General stress is a valid reason for seeking therapy. The majority of clients are subclinical, looking for ways to manage stress and triggers before they develop into conflict, mental illness, or disease. The demands of modern life are set up to leave us neglecting our true selves —so feeling stress is a sign of your humanity, and a place for us explore what works best for you.
