Natalie A Shafer
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, LPC
Stress can show up in many ways: feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or disconnected from yourself. It often builds over time and can remain in the body as well as the mind. Drawing on my experience as a yoga instructor, I integrate an awareness of the mind-body connection to help you better understand your stress, develop more sustainable ways of coping, and reconnect with a greater sense of balance and ease.

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.

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.
