Most of us experience stress at one point in our lives. I have worked with children and adults (ranging from ages 10-90) who have experienced different life stressors, including relationship difficulties, chronic illness, loss of a loved one, suicidal thoughts, job stress, and more.
Chronic stress can wear down your mental and physical health, leaving you feeling constantly overwhelmed. I provide practical, evidence-based tools to help manage stress more effectively. By working together, we’ll identify the sources of your stress and develop personalized strategies to enhance resilience, balance, and peace of mind in your daily life.
Stress is what we feel when negative emotions are primary and depleting of our energy and resources. In addition to CBT, biofeedback is very effective in successfully treating stress.
I want to help you say goodbye to "grind-culture." What is grind-culture? Grind culture is the idea that status is achieved by always being “on and available.” No matter where you are or what you're doing, you're hustling. You're reachable. If this sounds like you, we need to talk because this approach to life will leave you burnt out, exhausted and stressed.
Does this sound familiar? You want to feel calm and peaceful, but instead you feel like you might snap at the weight of a feather or are constantly worried about how to keep your cool through the never-ending hassles of each day. Each day it becomes more difficult to manage this level of stress on your own. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer McManus, and I help ambitious women find relief from overwhelming levels of stress. It is my mission to provide scientifically informed psychotherapy without sacrificing compassion and genuine concern.

We need to learn how to manage our stress - it doesn't go away by itself. I can help you learn behaviors and activities to decrease your stress. We may also use CBT to reframe catastrophic thinking.
