Dr. Maureen J Gallagher
Psychologist, PhD
Stress is a natural response to life’s demands, but when it becomes constant, the body can stay stuck on high alert. You may notice trouble sleeping, muscle tension, headaches, irritability, or a feeling that you can never fully relax. Over time, chronic stress can affect your health, relationships, and sense of well-being. Somatic work helps you recognize how stress lives in your body and supports your nervous system in completing its stress responses so it can return to rest. Through embodied parts work, we also explore the parts of you that feel driven, responsible, or unable to slow down, and understand what they are carrying. Many clients find they recover more quickly from difficult moments, feel more grounded in daily life, and experience a greater sense of balance and ease.

Brittany Speed, Hudson Valley Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
Stress is a normal part of life, and in some situations, it can help us respond to challenges and adapt to change. However, when stress becomes chronic or feels difficult to manage, it can take a toll on both your emotional and physical well-being, contributing to anxiety, irritability, difficulty sleeping, muscle tension, and other physical symptoms. You may feel overwhelmed by competing demands, find yourself stuck in patterns of worry, or struggle to make time for your own needs. I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help you understand your stress responses, identify unhelpful patterns, and develop practical strategies for managing difficult emotions and demands. Together, we’ll work toward building resilience, creating a healthier balance, and helping you feel more equipped to navigate life’s challenges while making space for what matters most to you.

Feeling stressed involves discomfort in both the mind and the body. With a compassionate approach, we will explore your triggers, symptoms and the roots of your distress.
