Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Michael views stress not just as a busy schedule, but as a cumulative strain on the self that often signals a disconnect between your daily demands and your internal needs.
Stress is frequently treated as an unavoidable byproduct of a productive life, yet when it becomes chronic, it often masks a deeper "thinning" of our resilience and sense of self. With 35 years of experience, Michael helps clients move beyond temporary relaxation techniques to explore the relational and systemic pressures that fuel persistent tension. By looking at the "unconscious scripts" that drive you to over-extend or neglect your own boundaries, he helps you identify the root causes of your burnout. The goal is to shift from a state of constant "doing" and reactive survival toward a more balanced way of being that honors both your professional ambitions and your personal well-being.

Lora Proia/ Centered Village LLC Counseling & Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LCPC, LPC
As a therapist specializing in stress counseling, I help clients identify the sources of overwhelm and develop practical, personalized strategies to restore balance. Stress can manifest in many ways—physical tension, racing thoughts, emotional exhaustion—and I work to untangle these layers with a blend of mindfulness, cognitive techniques, and nervous system regulation. My goal is to empower individuals to respond to life’s pressures with clarity and resilience, rather than burnout. Whether it’s work-related strain, life transitions, or chronic anxiety, I offer a space to pause, recalibrate, and move forward with strength.
