Stress
Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Stress is a part of all of our lives and at the optimum levels, it helps us to grow, achieve things, and create interesting lives. When it becomes excessive or debilitating then it can be helpful to seek support and treatment. The reality is that stress means different things to different people and the particular way in which you are experiencing it would become the focus of our work, which would then inform treatment. Treatment ideally will help you understand yourself and your experience better, increase your sense of coping and ultimately help you feel better.

Stress
Denise Jones
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, LCSW-C
Stress looks different on everyone, and even different on the same person at different times! Accordingly, different people experience stress under different circumstances. One thing remains consistent however; for the clinician, helping someone process stress is highly individualized work that relies, first and foremost, on the client's presenting issue. The EMDR intake process takes a radically different approach from traditional talk therapy in the way it looks at a client's presenting issue. It not only provides the client with self-calming techniques that can be used at any time; it also reframes the client's presenting issue in a way that allows the client to begin processing their response to the stressor rather than re-experiencing it.

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.

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Through techniques such as art therapy and experiential therapy, I provide creative outlets for clients to explore and express their emotions related to stressors. Additionally, I draw upon CBT, DBT, and compassion-focused therapy to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, develop effective coping strategies, and cultivate self-compassion in managing their stress.

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.

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.

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.

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.
