Bethesda, Maryland therapist: Dr. Samira Paul Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, psychologist
Stress

Dr. Samira Paul Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC

Psychologist, PsyD
At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we recognize that while stress is an inevitable part of a high-achieving or transition-filled life, it doesn’t have to lead to burnout or physical exhaustion. We view stress through a holistic lens, understanding how the "always-on" nature of modern life compounded by cultural pressures and family responsibilities can keep your nervous system in a state of constant survival. Our approach focuses on moving from reactive "firefighting" to proactive regulation. We help you identify your primary stressors and develop a personalized "resilience toolkit." By teaching you how to quiet the physiological stress response and set healthy boundaries, we empower you to handle life’s demands without losing your sense of inner peace.

Through techniques such as art therapy and experiential therapy, I provide creative outlets for clients to explore and express their emotions related to stressors.

Nikita Pion-Klockner, Holistic Therapy, LLC

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, LCSW-C
Chronic stress can leave you feeling exhausted, irritable, or disconnected from yourself and your life. I work with stress through a mind–body lens, helping you understand how your nervous system responds to ongoing demands and how stress is held in the body. Therapy supports you in slowing down, restoring regulation, and developing sustainable practices that create resilience, balance, and a deeper sense of calm while navigating daily life.

Bethesda, Maryland therapist: Taylor Allie, licensed professional counselor
Stress

Taylor Allie

Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
Through a somatic approach, the focus is on exploring the connection between the mind and body to alleviate tension and promote relaxation. I guide clients through various somatic techniques such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and body scanning to increase body awareness and reduce physiological arousal. By incorporating somatic interventions, clients can learn to release physical manifestations of stress, cultivate a sense of calm, and improve overall well-being.

Arlington, Virginia therapist: Andrea Miller, counselor/therapist
Stress

Andrea Miller

Counselor/Therapist, NCC
In my therapy sessions addressing stress, I often integrate elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients develop mindfulness skills and accept their emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations related to stress. Additionally, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to assist clients in identifying and challenging maladaptive thought patterns contributing to their stress, promoting healthier coping strategies and problem-solving skills. Drawing from Solution-Focused Brief Therapy principles, I collaborate with clients to set specific, achievable goals and explore practical solutions to reduce stressors and enhance their overall well-being.

Bethesda, Maryland therapist: Jeannie Dougherty, licensed professional counselor
Stress

Jeannie Dougherty

Licensed Professional Counselor, MAPC, LCPC
These are common stresses my clients report: More conversations, fewer opportunities to rest. More work to do, with less help, and AI is either your greatest opportunity or a daily nightmare. I'm not happy, and you're not happy with me. Trying to have it all but aren't sure which path to take. Always behind and dreams of being ahead. I guess I will sleep when I'm dead. I'm not sure what to eat, I just do. Working out, when do I have the time? We help tailor a stress-less plan for you, so these nibbling, wiggling, voices that pop up daily become quieter and less intrusive.

Bethesda, Maryland therapist: W. Katherine Redd, psychologist
Stress

W. Katherine Redd

Psychologist, Ph.D.
In our busy lives, a lot happens, and we have little time to process everything we experience. Sometimes, we just need a space to make sense of what has happened in our lives. Stress can sometimes make it difficult to focus on what is important to us. We go on from day to day, not living our lives to our full capacity. With psychotherapy, we can begin to understand how these factors are impacting you and help you find new, more effective ways of coping. I can help you to create that space.
