What is Stress?
Stress is your body’s physiological response to a threat. Also called the “fight or flight response”, stress enhances your reflexes, strength, focus and endurance when your body releases cortisol and adrenaline into your bloodstream. These hormones measurably increase your heartbeat, blood pressure, and breathing rate, while also tightening your muscles and sharpening your senses.

Dr. Stacie McPherson
Psychologist, M.A., Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
Stress is often treated as inevitable—just part of a demanding career or busy life. But when it becomes chronic, it affects everything: sleep, relationships, decision-making, and your ability to be present for the things that matter. I help clients identify what's driving their stress, develop practical strategies for managing it, and address the patterns—cognitive and physiological—that keep the nervous system stuck in overdrive. Using both talk therapy and somatic approaches, we'll work toward sustainable relief rather than just pushing through.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Stress can overwhelm both body and mind, leaving clients feeling reactive, depleted, or shut down. I help clients understand how stress cycles work in the nervous system and how to move through them rather than stay stuck in overdrive. My approach draws on IFS, mindfulness, somatic awareness, relaxation training, and experiential techniques to calm the body, regulate emotion, and create sustainable coping strategies. Attachment and narrative perspectives further support reframing meaning and building long-term resilience. I also provide diagnostic assessment and clarity to distinguish stress from underlying anxiety or mood disorders.

Dr. Cara Bussell, PhD, LLC
Psychologist
Stress can build up over time or come on suddenly, affecting your mood, health, focus, and relationships. I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities, life transitions, caregiving, or ongoing pressure. In therapy, we create space to slow down, gain clarity, and develop tools to manage stress more effectively. I use evidence-based approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and psychoeducation to help clients feel more grounded and resilient. If stress is interfering with your daily life, I invite you to reach out for a free consultation.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with working professionals who are carrying a lot on their shoulders and are starting to feel the cost. Many of the people I see work in high-responsibility environments such as medicine, tech, or other fields where there is constant demand and very little true off-time. From the outside, you may look calm, competent, and reliable. Inside, your mind may not turn off, your sleep may be disrupted, your body may feel tight or wired, or you may notice yourself snapping at people you care about. You may be the one others turn to in crisis, at work or at home, with almost no space where you get to set anything down.
Stress in this context often looks like living in constant problem-solving mode, feeling responsible for how things turn out, and having a hard time resting even when you are exhausted. You may be juggling intense professional expectations, long hours, and complex personal or family dynamics, with a sense that you cannot drop any of the pieces. Your body may be registering this through headaches, tension, fatigue, or a sense of being constantly “on,” while your mind keeps telling you to just keep going. It can be hard to know what you need when other people are so used to needing you.
In our work together, we make room for the part of you that has learned to function under pressure and to keep going no matter what. We look closely at what is driving your stress, how it is affecting your body, mood, and relationships, and the expectations you are carrying for yourself and your work. This is a confidential space where you do not have to be the strong one, where you can lay things down, be honest about how hard it feels, and begin to find a way of living that is more sustainable for you.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. While many of us strive to get rid of our stress, research in psychology shows that a life without stress if fairly boring. I enjoy helping my clients reframe some of their stressors as challenges, learning how to deal with these challenges, and having success stories to lean back on to feel inherently good about themselves. If you live in a state of constant stress, we need to re-calibrate you so your body isn't constantly swimming in cortisol!

Denver's outdoor culture and apparent wellness orientation coexist with high rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use — a tension many locals recognize. The city's rapid growth and housing pressures have intensified stress for longtime residents and newcomers alike, and therapists frequently address adjustment, relationship strain, and burnout tied to the city's boom-era pace. Denver has a significant veteran population given proximity to several military installations, and therapists specializing in military trauma and PTSD are well represented. UCHealth and SCL Health provide major institutional anchors alongside Denver's large and well-established independent therapy community.
