Stress
Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
Stress doesn’t always show up as chaos—it often looks like competence. You’re juggling deadlines, relationships, responsibilities, and expectations… and holding it all together, until you’re not. Whether you’re managing a major life transition, navigating burnout, stuck in a cycle of perfectionism, or just stretched too thin by the pace and pressure of everyday life, chronic stress can leave you feeling disconnected, depleted, and overwhelmed.
I work with high-achieving adults and emerging professionals—including neurodivergent clients and those holding marginalized identities—who carry invisible layers of stress. You might be masking exhaustion, pushing through burnout, or navigating the emotional toll of systems that weren’t built with you in mind. The pressure to show up flawlessly in environments that judge you based on race, gender, sexuality, ability, or productivity can quietly erode your well-being, even as you outwardly keep performing.
At The Momentum Practice, I help clients move beyond just “coping” and toward meaningful, sustainable change. We’ll explore what’s fueling your stress—not just your to-do list, but the internal and external forces behind it. That might include unrealistic standards, people-pleasing, financial strain, systemic stress, or the weight of decisions that don’t have easy answers.
With over 15 years of experience, I offer a space to pause, rest, and reconnect—not just with what’s depleting you, but with what brings you energy, joy, and purpose. Together, we’ll build insight, challenge the patterns keeping you stuck, and practice tools that support your nervous system—not just your productivity. If you’re ready to feel more centered, free, and fulfilled—I’d be honored to journey alongside you. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Stress
Stephanie Larsen @ Healthy Minds Psychology Group
Psychologist, PsyD
Hi! Congratulations on taking the first step in your journey of caring more deeply for yourself! I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults working to overcome their significant anxiety and free their life from constant worry and stress. The world and life can be demanding and sometimes you need someone on your side to navigate through the stress. I focus on CBT cognitive and behavioral strategies to focus on stress management, mindfulness and grounding to establish balance, and relaxation to focus on regulating your nervous system in times of high stress and anxiety. Ultimately, I strongly believe in building a close therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe to explore and move past your anxious thought patterns, learn to support yourself, become more confident in your identity and purpose, and my goal is to help you achieve the goals you've set out to meet! Feel free to reach out and see if we can be a good fit to help move you closer to your goals and relief!

Stress
Dr. Mike Lee
Psychologist
I help individuals rework the sources of chronic stress to achieve a steadier and more livable rhythm in life. The work is depth-informed and collaborative: we make sense of what is happening at and beneath the surface—overload, competing demands, and the meanings driving urgency—and turn that understanding into workable steps. The aim is durable change—less tension and spinning, more clarity, choice, and the capacity to meet demands without losing yourself.

Stress
Dr. Lyndsay Elliott
Psychologist, PsyD.
Chronic stress has a way of becoming the background noise of modern life — so constant and pervasive that most people stop recognizing it as something worth addressing until it has taken a serious toll on their health, relationships, and overall well-being. As a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience, I help adults and high-achieving professionals identify the root causes of chronic stress, workplace stress, caregiver stress, and stress-related anxiety and depression and develop practical, lasting strategies to manage them. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic insight, and evidence-based stress management techniques, I help clients reclaim a genuine sense of balance and resilience. Telehealth stress therapy available across 40+ states.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and Hamburg Pavilion. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
