Allison Cordts - Sunrise Therapy for Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC
Stress not only robs our mind of happiness and good things but robs our bodies of staying healthy and robust. Stress affects us in so many ways, however, there are just as many ways to learn to lower and at times, eliminate stress, which is life changing in most circumstances.

Ashley Omar
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
Chronic stress and burnout can leave you feeling emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the things that once felt manageable. Therapy can help you identify the sources of stress, develop healthier coping strategies, and restore balance in your life. The goal is to help you feel more grounded, capable, and supported.

Joy Freilich
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC
Life can be hard. Sometimes we have difficulty communicating with our partner, boss, children, or our parents. Sometimes we have difficulty adjusting to a new environment or new life circumstances. At times, we may feel stuck and unsure of how to make changes in our lives. Other times we may want to delve deeper and truly understand our motivations and desires. Sometimes we just need to feel heard and understood. Having an unbiased, non judgmental person to talk to can help.
Everyone feels stressed from time to time. Sometimes it manifests as anger, anxiety, sadness. You may feel restless, unfocused or overwhelmed. You may lose sleep. The important thing is learning how to manage your stress in a healthy and productive manager so it doesn't impact your health. When I work with clients who are experiencing high levels of stress I look to discover what is causing the feelings of stress while also helping my clients develop productive coping mechanisms.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
We all have stress. I differentiate between stressors (things in our lives that can cause varying degrees of stress) and stress (how we actually respond to that stress). To overly simplify - we will first help you to deal with stress but if that stress can't be managed to your liking, it may be time to change the stressor (job, relationship, neighborhood, etc)

Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Chronic stress often develops when the demands of work, leadership, or creative output remain high for long periods of time. Many founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals live in a constant state of pressure where the nervous system rarely has the opportunity to slow down. Through trauma-informed therapy and nervous system regulation, we work to understand the patterns driving overwork and burnout so you can respond to stress with greater steadiness, clearer thinking, and sustainable energy.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Stress becomes a problem when the off switch stops working — when you're always running, always behind, always managing, and your body has forgotten what it feels like to truly rest. Chronic stress wears down the nervous system, contributes to anxiety and depression, and chips away at your relationships and sense of self over time. I help clients understand what's driving their stress at a deeper level, develop nervous system regulation skills that actually work, and build a more sustainable way of living — one where you're not perpetually running on empty.

Atlanta's rapid growth as a major business hub has intensified demand for therapists specializing in workplace stress, burnout, and anxiety among its large professional population. The city has a vibrant and well-established Black community, and many therapists focus on culturally affirming care, racial identity, and intergenerational trauma. Long commutes and sprawl are a persistent stressor for many residents, and a large share of Atlanta therapists offer extended hours and telehealth options across the metro area. Piedmont Healthcare and Emory Healthcare anchor institutional mental health services alongside the city's extensive private practice community.
