Stress
Dr. Michael J. Lee
Psychologist
Persistent stress can involve both the demands placed upon you and the expectations that govern how you meet them. We explore what keeps urgency, overextension, or difficulty resting in place, including the meanings attached to responsibility, achievement, and limits. The work supports practical changes alongside a fuller understanding of what you need to sustain a more livable rhythm.

Stress
Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Modern life is full—often too full. Between work, relationships, family, health, and the constant buzz of the world around us, stress can pile up until you’re running on fumes and wondering how much longer you can keep juggling everything.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, on edge, or stuck in constant “go” mode, you're not alone—and you don’t have to white-knuckle your way through it. With nearly two decades of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help clients untangle the roots of their stress and find tools that actually work (and are sustainable, not just “take a bubble bath and hope for the best”).
I use a mix of mindfulness-based strategies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Polyvagal Theory, and compassion-focused approaches to help you slow down, breathe, and reconnect to what truly matters. Together, we’ll shift from just surviving to building a more grounded, intentional way of living—even when life is demanding.
You’re allowed to take up space. You’re allowed to need support. And yes, you’re allowed to put yourself on your own to-do list.

Tal Brafford
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC-A
I approach stress management through an anti-capitalistic, anti-colonial, and feminist framework. I believe stress is a perfectly normal response to the way our society is rewarding individualism, materialism, and poor boundaries, particularly with work. I enjoy helping clients find their way back to joy while providing practical, evidence-based stress management skills.

Stress can affect your mood, physical health, relationships, sleep, and ability to feel present in your everyday life. When responsibilities and expectations begin to feel overwhelming, it can become difficult to prioritize your own needs and well-being. I help clients explore the emotional and physical impact of stress, identify patterns that may be contributing to distress, and develop practical strategies for coping and restoring balance. Together, we can work toward greater self-awareness, resilience, and a healthier relationship with the demands of life.
