Elyse Gardner, MA, LPCA
Pre-Licensed Professional, LPCA
Chronic stress often gets treated as background noise, something to push through rather than address. I help clients recognize what stress is actually doing in their body, tension, shallow breath, a nervous system stuck in overdrive, and build real capacity to downshift out of it, rather than just adding another coping strategy on top.

Mountain Crest Counseling Services, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCSW, and Register Associates
Stress can affect more than your mood—it can influence your sleep, relationships, concentration, energy, and ability to enjoy everyday life. When responsibilities and expectations begin to feel overwhelming, it can be difficult to slow down, think clearly, or know where to begin. Therapy provides a supportive, judgment-free space to step back, understand what is contributing to your stress, and find healthier ways to cope.
Outpatient therapy can help you manage overwhelm, identify stress triggers, set healthier boundaries, improve emotional regulation, and develop practical coping strategies that fit your life. Whether you’re dealing with work stress, relationship challenges, major life changes, burnout, or simply feeling stretched too thin, therapy can help you regain balance, clarity, and a greater sense of control.

When Stress Becomes Your Normal
You may be holding everything together — work, relationships, family — but inside, you feel stretched thin. Your mind is racing, your sleep is off, and no matter how much you get done, it never feels like enough. Maybe your body has started to show the strain too — headaches, fatigue, tension, or constant restlessness.
Stress is your body’s way of saying something needs care. When it becomes chronic, it can leave you feeling anxious, irritable, or disconnected from what once brought joy.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you calm your nervous system and regain a sense of balance. Together, we’ll:
Identify the thoughts and habits that keep your stress cycle running
Build emotional tools to manage pressure without burning out
Learn how to pause and reset your body’s “threat mode” using neuroscience-based skills
Strengthen your boundaries and reconnect with what truly matters to you
Replace overthinking and self-criticism with clarity and confidence
Our work combines practical tools, humor, and self-compassion — because healing from stress isn’t about doing more, it’s about learning how to do less with more presence and peace.
I BELIEVE:
Your stress is not a personal failure — it’s a signal asking for understanding, not judgment.
Balance isn’t something you find; it’s something you build, moment by moment.
You can be both ambitious and grounded, productive and peaceful.
Boundaries are acts of self-respect, not selfishness.
You deserve a life that feels manageable, meaningful, and your own.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach
