Kisha Winston-Watkins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C, MBA
Life comes with its share of stress — some of it can motivate us, but excessive stress can overwhelm the mind and body, making it hard to function at our best. When stress becomes constant, it can affect mood, sleep, relationships, and overall well‑being.
In my practice, I provide effective stress‑management strategies to help you navigate life’s demands, reduce harmful stress, and build resilience. Together, we create practical approaches to restore balance, strengthen coping skills, and support your emotional and physical health so you can thrive, not just manage, in the face of life’s challenges.
