Stress
Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
Feeling stressed on a regular basis is one of the most taxing things we as humans can experience. It affects us, physically and mentally, and can be so exhausting. If you're "feeling it," walking around on edge all the time, unsure if you've experienced any relaxation in months, snapping at those you love, or even feeling physical pain from muscle tension - I can help. In our work together, we will use a combination of "brain" approaches and "body" approaches to help you identify the sources of your stress, what you would like to feel instead, and teach your body how to work with you instead of against you to get you feeling like you have more space again.
Starting therapy can be stressful at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Stress is a natural part of life, but when it becomes overwhelming, it can take a toll on your health, relationships, and overall well-being. Constant worry, irritability, sleep problems, or feeling “on edge” may leave you drained and struggling to keep up. In therapy, I provide a supportive space to explore what’s fueling your stress and to build personalized strategies for managing it more effectively. Together, we’ll work on restoring balance, increasing resilience, and helping you feel more grounded and in control of your daily life.

Centers for Counseling and Wellness, Int'l
Psychologist, PhD
Stress has become so normalized that most of us do not even recognize how much we are carrying until our body starts sending us signals we can no longer ignore. The headaches, the tension, the sleepless nights, the snapping at people we love, the feeling that no matter how much you check off your list, there is always more. We wear busy like a badge of honor and wonder why we feel like we are running on empty.
But chronic stress is not just uncomfortable. It is dangerous. And it is telling you something important.
At CCW International, we help you slow down long enough to actually listen. Stress rarely exists in isolation. It is usually connected to deeper patterns, perfectionism, people-pleasing, lack of boundaries, unprocessed trauma, or simply the weight of carrying too much for too long without enough support. We help you identify what is actually driving your stress, not just manage the symptoms on the surface.
For the high-achieving women we serve, stress often comes with a side of guilt for even admitting they are struggling. For our veteran and military family clients, stress can be layered with hypervigilance and a nervous system that never quite got the memo that the mission is over.
Wherever your stress is coming from, you do not have to just push through it. You deserve to actually feel better. And we can help you get there.
