Stress
Mary Mesiha

Stress is a normal part of life, but when it starts to feel constant or overwhelming, it can take a toll on your mind and body. You may find yourself feeling tense, irritable, or exhausted, with little time to recharge.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW

Stress
Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Stress touches every part of life, and it can leave you feeling wired, exhausted, and like you’re never really off-duty. In our work together, we slow down and listen to the “parts” of you that are overworking, worrying, caregiving, or bracing for the next crisis, using Internal Family Systems, mindfulness, and somatic presence to help your body and mind come out of constant fight‑or‑flight. As you learn to recognize your limits, honor your needs, and soften long‑held patterns, stress becomes more manageable, and you can experience more ease, clarity, and moments of real rest in your everyday life.

Stress
Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work with individuals experiencing high levels of stress related to work, relationships, health, and life transitions. With extensive clinical experience treating anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and complex life challenges across community mental health and private practice settings, I incorporate both biological and neurological education to help clients understand how stress impacts the brain and body. Together, we develop practical coping strategies, strengthen emotional regulation, and build resilience so clients can respond to pressure with greater clarity, balance, and confidence.

Stress
Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Stress often signals that something in your life or relationships needs attention, rather than being just something to “fix.” In our work, we create a calm, supportive space to notice what your stress is showing you and explore patterns in your experiences. Approached with curiosity and care, stress can become a doorway to greater insight, balance, and resilience.

Stress
Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Stress can stem from success, responsibility, and the quiet pressure to hold everything together. Whether you're managing professional burnout, caregiving demands, or the cumulative toll of perfectionism and overcommitment, I offer structured, evidence-based support to help you recalibrate and restore balance.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Behavioral Activation to address both the physiological and psychological dimensions of stress. We’ll identify the patterns that drive chronic tension, explore values-based decision-making, and develop practical tools to reduce overwhelm and increase resilience. For clients navigating high-stakes environments, I also offer strategic support for workflow optimization, sleep hygiene, and emotional regulation.
Therapy is collaborative, nonjudgmental, and tailored to your strengths. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone quietly managing stress behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that supports both immediate relief and long-term sustainability.

Stress
Michael Keigher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
Stress is sneaky — it tells you to keep pushing even when you’re already at your limit. I help clients untangle the guilt, burnout, and “never enough” mindset that comes with chronic stress. Together, we’ll work toward a life that feels more sustainable, intentional, and grounded.
